PM2.5

PM10

The NextPM sensor has been developed under three patents and is built for real-time monitoring, durability, long-term reliability and delivering unparalleled accuracy. NextPM unique features make it the optimal solution for both Environmental Monitoring and Industrial applications.

NextPM Technology

• 2 Detection Angles
This feature is unique in this category of optical sensors. Gives a better resolution by the discrimination of particles that could have the same signals at 90°.

• Humidity Shield
NextPM features a patented humidity regulation system that maintains the Humidity levels inside the sensor below 60%. This prevents particle swelling and ensures accurate measurements even in humid environments.

• Coarse Particle Trap
Unique feature avoiding the use of an additional physical filter and improving the sensor lifetime by avoiding premature clogging of the flow by blocking particles > 10 µm.

NextPM - Key Benefits

High Accuracy
Due to its proprietary optical architecture and TERA Sensor unique algorithm, the NextPM is the best sensor to size particles. For this kind of technology, an effective sizing is the former key to a precise PM measurement.

Quality product​
Each part of NextPM has been specifically designed, crafted and tested by our team based in France in order to meet the highest quality standards and provide the most reliable technology.

Cost Efficiency​
With up to 10 years without maintenance, NextPM offers optimal total costs of ownership by reducing maintenance operations.

Reliability
NextPM integrates dedicated reliable components to remove temperature and humidity interferences on measurement so you can use the technology in a wide use case’s range.​
