Compact Air Quality Sensor Modules for Targeted Monitoring
Smart, space-saving air monitoring modules designed for reliable deployment across indoor, outdoor, and industrial settings.
Compact Sensor Modules for Scalable Air Quality Monitoring
Compact air quality sensor modules are revolutionizing how organizations monitor localized environmental conditions. With a small form factor and high sensing precision, these modules are engineered for ease of integration into buildings, industrial systems, smart city platforms, and portable air quality tools. They deliver accurate, real-time data on pollutants like PM2.5, VOCs, NO₂, O₃, CO₂, and CO, helping decision-makers take timely action. Especially beneficial for decentralized and dense deployment, compact modules are ideal for projects requiring scalable, distributed air sensing with low power consumption.

Case Studies
Indoor Environmental Quality Compliance
A Fortune 500 tech company based in Seattle deployed over 250 compact sensor modules from Air Quality Instruments in their new LEED-certified headquarters. The sensors provided PM2.5, CO₂, and VOC readings across multiple floors, helping their facilities team automate HVAC adjustments and meet WELL Building Standard air metrics.
Subway Air Monitoring Network
A major East Coast transit authority integrated compact sensor modules into underground rail stations for real-time air quality tracking. With seamless Modbus integration and cloud streaming, the solution helped city engineers monitor PM levels and thermal load exposure for staff and passengers.
Agricultural Greenhouse Monitoring
A commercial greenhouse operation in British Columbia deployed solar-powered compact modules across its indoor growing zones to track CO₂ and humidity levels. Using wireless LoRaWAN connectivity, the sensors allowed growers to optimize ventilation and plant yield while staying compliant with local air safety thresholds.
