Pollutant Size Comparison

Comparison of PM particles with a human hair

Particulate Matter (PM) is made up of tiny particles or droplets that stay suspended in the air. These pollutants can get deep into the lungs and airways, which poses a serious risk to health.

  • PM1 size 1 micron
  • PM1

    Smaller than 1µm

  • PM2.5 size 2.5 microns
  • PM2.5

    Smaller than 2.5µm

  • PM10 size 10 microns
  • PM10

    Smaller than 10µm

A Guide to Particulate Matter

Particulate Matter (PM) is grouped by size, with PM2.5 (fine particles) and PM10 (coarse particles) being the pollutants tracked most often.

Learn more about PM sizes

  • PM1

    Ultrafine particles with a diameter of 1 micrometer or smaller. These can pass straight into the bloodstream and may lead to serious health issues.

  • PM2.5

    Fine particles smaller than 2.5 micrometers. Their small size lets them get deep into the lungs, where they can cause long-term damage to the airways.

  • PM10

    Particles you can inhale that are smaller than 10 micrometers, such as dust and pollen. The nose and throat usually filter them out, but they can still cause strong allergies.

  • Particle Count

    This metric tracks the total concentration of particles in the air, whatever their size. It gives you a full picture of the overall air quality in one number.

  • Construction activity as a source of PM pollutionConstruction Sites
  • Wildfires and smoke as sources of PM pollutionWildfires
  • Unpaved and dusty roads as sources of PM pollutionRoad Dust

Accuracy Test: Prana Air Sensor vs. BAM

Comparison of Prana Air PM2.5 sensor accuracy with BAM reference system

A detailed study was carried out. It compared the accuracy of the Prana Air PM sensor with the high-end Beta Attenuation Monitoring (BAM) system.

The results confirmed a strong correlation between the two instruments. The sensor performs at close to reference grade.

Our Sensors Case Studies

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 meter, 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.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Prana Air PM Sensor (PAS-OUT-01) is a high-performance, laser-based digital sensor. It is built to track PM1, PM2.5, and PM10 particles outdoors. It uses the 90° light scattering method to detect particles in real time and with accuracy.

Our sensor measures particulate matter from 0 to 31,000 µg/m³. That makes it ideal for everything from clean air checks to tracking at industrial and construction sites.

The sensor can detect particles as small as 0.3 micrometers (µm). These tiny pollutants are small enough to get deep into the lungs, the airways, and the bloodstream.

The sensor has been checked against global reference-grade instruments, including Beta Attenuation Monitoring (BAM) systems and TSI DustTrak monitors. Independent research by technical institutes around the world backs this up. It shows that the sensor closely matches industry standards, which proves it to be a reliable and accurate choice.

Our sensors are used by a wide range of groups around the world in research, healthcare, and industry. Well-known users include the Boston Consulting Group (BCG), as well as universities, environmental agencies, and Fortune 500 firms in many countries.

The sensor is in use at over 2,000 construction and industrial sites worldwide. It is tough and easy to install, which makes it a top pick for large-scale environmental monitoring projects.

Key features include a dust-proof duct that won't clog, moisture-resistant circuit boards for humid settings, and a closed-loop fan system for steady airflow. It works well in temperatures from -20°C to +70°C.

The sensor connects to a monitoring hub, which sends the data to the cloud via Wi-Fi, GSM, or RS-485. Users can view this data in real time through mobile apps or web dashboards.

Yes. Prana Air also offers indoor sensors made for offices, homes, and schools. These sensors pick up even small changes in air quality, and they are tuned for non-stop indoor monitoring day and night.

Range: 0–31,000 µg/m³ | Voltage: 5V | Particle Resolution: 0.3 µm | Mass Resolution: 1 µg/m³ | Operating Temp: -20°C to +70°C | Dimensions: 4.5 x 4.5 x 2 cm.
