Indoor Air Quality Monitors / Indicators / Controllers

IAQ is a comprehensive index, including room temperature, humidity, fresh air and diverse low concentrations of air contaminants. Monitoring and controlling indoor air quality is very important to ensure a healthy and safe living and working environment.

The measurement of indoor air quality has, conventionally, been used for comfort control and the prevention of Sick Building Syndrome (SBS). However, what is meant by indoor air quality? Two schools of thought seem to exist. One, common in the USA looks to measure Carbon Dioxide (CO2). The other, which is more popular in Europe, looks to detect Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC's).

The measurement/detection of either, or both, of these atmospheric gases can be used as an indicator of IAQ level or further utilised as a control for part of a Demand Control Ventilation system (DCV).

Edinburgh Instruments supply a diverse range of IAQ Monitors, Indicators and Controllers to detect CO2, CO, VOC and Ozone gases which affect our environment and general well being.
