Case Studies
Urban Air Monitoring Network – Denver, CO
A public air quality agency in Denver integrated our zero air systems and gas calibrators across multiple ambient monitoring stations. The automated calibration reduced human error and aligned with EPA QA/QC protocols, improving data accuracy by over 25% while reducing technician hours by 40%.
Industrial Emissions Control – Houston, TX
A petrochemical facility in Houston required precise calibration of their CEMS units. Air Quality Instruments supplied a custom gas generator and zero air integration kit, paired with remote diagnostics software. Within 3 months, the plant reported improved compliance reporting and fewer sensor failures.
Mobile Lab Deployment – Ontario, Canada
A Canadian research team conducting wildfire smoke analysis deployed our portable zero air units and calibration systems in mobile labs. The compact design and battery backup allowed real-time calibration in remote field locations. Results supported provincial air quality health assessments with traceable data quality.
