Sensor TechnologyAdvanced Laser Monitoring
Light Scattering at a 90° Angle
The PAS-OUT-01 is a high-performance digital laser sensor built for urban and industrial use. It comes with a built-in laser and a light-based receiving module, so it tells PM10 and PM2.5 particles apart with accuracy. The sensor works on the 90° light scattering principle to give you steady data in all sorts of weather and settings.

Pollutant Size Comparison
Particulate Matter (PM) is a mix of solid particles and liquid droplets that float in the air. Because they are so small, we can breathe these pollutants in, and they can harm long-term health.
PM1
Sized 1µm or smaller
PM2.5
Sized 2.5µm or smaller
PM10
Sized 10µm or smaller
A Guide to Particulate Matter (PM)
Particulate Matter (PM) is grouped by particle diameter, with PM2.5 (fine particles) and PM10 (coarse particles) being the main markers used to assess air quality.

Learn about different PM sizes
PM1
Ultrafine particles with a diameter of 1 micrometre or smaller. They can pass straight into the bloodstream and pose health risks across the body.
PM2.5
Fine particles smaller than 2.5 micrometres. These are small enough to reach deep into the lungs, which may lead to long-term health conditions.
PM10
Particles you can inhale with a diameter of 10 micrometres or smaller, including dust and pollen. They can irritate the airways and set off allergies.
Particle Count
This metric measures the total number of particles in the air, whatever their size. It gives you a full picture of the overall air quality in one number.

Accuracy Test: Prana Air Sensor vs. BAM
A full validation study was carried out. In it, the Prana Air PM sensor was tested against the standard Beta Attenuation Monitoring (BAM) system.
The results showed a strong correlation. This confirms that our sensor performs at close to reference grade.

Case Study By IIIT Hyderabad
Comparative Evaluation of New Low-Cost Particulate Matter Sensors
Study Brief : The paper tested our Prana Air device alongside other low-cost sensors for PM2.5 and PM10 readings. The team compared the results with the standard Aeroqual Series-500. Their problem with traditional devices was the high cost, the weight, and the frequent need for service, which limited their use in cities.
Note : The monitors update every 30 seconds. Our PM sensors have a resolution of ±1.0 micrograms per cubic metre, and our NO2 sensors have a resolution of ±1.0 ppb.

Case Study By NEERI (CSIR)
Performance‐based protocol for selection of Affordable and easy to carry sensor for air quality measurement
Study Brief : In this research, the team used our device in their Environmental Protection Sensors (EPS) assessment. They compared the factory calibration data with reference monitors. Their challenge was to find a sensor that was cheap enough but still accurate, sensitive, and good at handling data. In the end, Prana Air proved to be a reliable and low-cost choice.
