The importance of monitoring air quality in your environment

Have you ever felt tired at the end of the day, a drop in energy, migraines?

What if it was linked to a level of CO2, fine particles or volatile organic compounds that is too high in the room or office in which you work?

Monitoring air quality using CO2 sensors seems to be an essential step in improving the indoor environment, and by extension the well-being of users of these common spaces.

 

WHAT ARE THE OBJECTIVES?

• Fight against air pollution and its consequences on the body.
• Optimize your well-being at the office or at school.
• Increase/improve productivity and concentration.
• Carry out targeted actions on the environment.

FOR WHICH AUDIENCE?

• Companies, offices, coworking spaces…
• Meeting rooms, conference rooms.
• Schools.
• Daycare centers, leisure centers…

 

SOME FIGURES

 

CO2 is an inert gas present at an atmospheric concentration of about 400 ppm. This increases in closed environments, as it is released by the body in the process of respiration.

The increase in this concentration leads to harmful consequences on health as soon as the threshold of 1000 ppm is reached.

( ANSE, 2013 ):

Decrease in cognitive performance (decision-making, concentration), increased feeling of fatigue COVID-19 has contributed to the general awareness of the importance of monitoring indoor air quality. The High Council of Public Health recommends ventilating the room from 800 ppm.

 

WHAT IS THE PROPOSED SOLUTION?

We offer to deploy a monitoring solution in your workspaces

of air quality. This implementation can

be carried out simply, and without mobilizing

heavy investments, notably thanks to the

setting up a sensor network.

There are a variety of CO2 sensors available,

reliable, and very easy to read thanks to

light indicators or emoticons. These

equipment can be supervised from a

central point, thanks to a dashboard which allows information to be grouped together

collected. The use of this type of sensor allows for rapid and detached reading of the data.

technique. Users are integrated and made aware of the action of improving air quality. This could be children in a school, a teacher or an employee of

desk.

TO GO FURTHER…

 

Once the sensor network is deployed, it is possible to implement solutions

automation. This could be, for example, an alarm being raised, or the control of a

ventilation system.
