Monitoring Sulfur Dioxide Made Easy with the Advanced AQS 1 System

Monitoring sulfur dioxide in urban and industrial areas has never been simpler thanks to the advanced AQS 1 system. Designed for precision and reliability, this modular air monitoring system allows real-time tracking of airborne pollutants, providing accurate data. Its innovative design ensures that construction, demolition, or remediation sites can stay informed about potential air contaminants.

Precision Air Sampling at Your Fingertips

The AQS 1 system incorporates a pumped sampling setup, which maintains a steady airflow to the sensor modules. This ensures reliable detection of sulfur dioxide and other pollutants while using filters to protect the sensors from dust and particulate matter. By extending sensor life and maintaining consistent readings, the system offers unmatched dependability for short-term and long-term monitoring projects.

Automatic Baseline Correction for Accurate Readings

One of the standout features of the AQS 1 system is its Automatic Baseline Correction (ABC). This feature recalibrates the sensor zero point every 60 seconds, adjusting for sensor drift and cross-interferences. For monitoring sulfur dioxide, ABC ensures continuous, trustworthy measurements without manual intervention. This capability is particularly valuable for projects where continuous, real-time data is required to reassure nearby communities.

Robust Particulate Matter Detection

AQS 1 goes beyond gas monitoring with its high-quality particulate matter sensors. The system uses a Met One nephelometer, coupled with a pumped sampling system and an inlet heater, to measure PM2.5, PM10, and total suspended particulates (TSP). This design corrects for humidity interference, ensuring consistent particulate readings even in varying environmental conditions. Such precision is crucial for monitoring sulfur dioxide alongside dust and other airborne contaminants.

Flexible Power and Mobility Options

Designed for versatility, the AQS 1 operates on lightweight lithium batteries, solar power, or standard 110V power sources. Its mobility allows deployment around site perimeters to act as a boundary monitor, detecting and alerting if sulfur dioxide or dust crosses designated points. This flexibility supports short-term leases for construction or real estate projects, making it easy to deploy, retrieve, and redeploy as needed.

Integrated Data Access and Weather Monitoring

The system includes an integrated weather station and a mobile application for real-time monitoring. You can view sulfur dioxide levels and other pollutants remotely, helping them respond proactively to changes. This data-driven approach ensures that communities remain protected from on-site exposure while providing transparency and reassurance for surrounding areas.

Calibration and Industry-Leading Accuracy

Each AQS 1 sensor module undergoes rigorous factory and field calibration using high-purity gas standards traceable to National Metrology Institutes. The system mirrors the standards of certified US EPA and EU analyzers, providing confidence in its accuracy. Whether tracking sulfur dioxide, VOCs, or particulate matter, the calibration ensures reliable, repeatable results across diverse project sites.

Why AQS 1 is Ideal for Community Air Monitoring?

The AQS 1 system is designed for modularity and adaptability, making it perfect for monitoring sulfur dioxide at project boundaries. Its lightweight, mobile design allows quick setup around sites, while robust sensors provide accurate real-time readings. Continuous monitoring, minimizing complaints and demonstrating proactive environmental oversight without relying on regulatory mandates.
