Real-time functions enable immediate warnings of the presence of harmful gases in the air thus protecting employees and the public. The wireless units communicate via the sophisticated and reliable Zigbee wireless mesh network; the network can be extended easily by adding repeater nodes or additional PPMonitor or Mini PPMonitor units; each unit can be configured with unique sensor specifications if required. This allows complete monitoring of the Indoor Air Environment in any building layout.
The IAQ Profile system has been designed to give a visual representation of indoor air quality in buildings, as part of the buildings management standards in relation to conditions such as Sick Building Syndrome. Since a great number of units can be networked, the system can show prescise changes in concentration of selected IAQ parameters in various locations over time. The IAQ Profile Monitor system enables the user to control and run several wireless IAQ sampling units — all communicating together via the sophisticated and reliable ZigBee wireless mesh system. The mesh network system is costeffective, easy to install and simple to use. The size of the wireless mesh can be easily extended by simply adding new IAQ Profile Monitor units as each one is also a router for it's neighbours. In areas where no IAQ monitoring is required then dedicated 'Repeater' nodes can be used for the same purpose. Each IAQ Profile Unit can monitor 3 to 8 different IAQ parameters. The Manager PC connects to the mesh network via a special node which is capable of recieving and transmitting information to the IAQ Profile Monitor. The Manager PC can view, run and control the realtime monitoring and data logging of air quality in a bulilding at the click of a button. The PPMonitor software enables the data to be viewed graphically, produce reports and statistical data, run schedules as well as alarm functions and notifications for more effective and economical building management. The software can set limits for temperature, humidity, and for concentrations of hazardous gases, which when exceeded can activate and control the air-conditioning and ventilation systems. It can also turn heating on and off, and as a last resort trigger building alarms. The alarm can be triggered to give a warning that the gas concentration level has reached a non-critical but concerning level. A further alarm can give a more severe warning when this occurs. Sensor Options: Formaldehyde Glutaraldehyde Temperature Humidity Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2) Carbon Monoxide (CO) Carbon Dioxide (CO2) Sulphur Dioxide (SO2) Total Volatile Organic Compounds (TVOC's) Methane (CH4) Ammonia (NH3) Ozone (O3) Water (H20) single zone sensing cable Smoke Sensor * Other sensor options available Controlling and monitoring these IAQ parameters would improve occupant comfort and work efficiency as well as immediate and long-term health. The IAQ Profile Monitor incorporates a variety of advanced gas sensor technologies to monitor the target gases including NDIR, PID and Electrochemical.
