PCE RCM 02 Air Quality Meter

PCE-RCM 02 Air Quality Meter

PCE-RCM 02 Air Quality Meter is an ideal solution for monitoring indoor air quality in homes, workplaces, or public buildings.
Its modern and sleek design, along with compact dimensions, combines aesthetics and functionality for both professional and personal use.
These features make the device extremely flexible and easy to use for different environments and user groups.

• PCE-RCM 02 displays critical air parameters such as carbon dioxide (CO₂), formaldehyde (HCHO), particulate matter, and total volatile organic compounds (TVOC) in real-time via its 3.5-inch LCD screen. It also measures ambient temperature and humidity values, offering a comprehensive air information assessment.

• Particulate matter measurement (PM1 / PM2.5 / PM10) allows users to analyze the microscopic effects of air pollution.

• The screen uses green, orange, and red color codes to easily convey measurement results to the user. These colors provide a quick assessment of whether air quality is good, moderate, or poor.

• Wi-Fi connectivity feature allows the device to communicate with mobile devices and enables personalized settings via the Smart Life app.

• Smart Life app allows remote control of the device and provides access to air quality data from anywhere in the world.

• The app can be downloaded as "Smart Life" from the app markets of phones with Android or iOS operating systems.

• Adjustable alarm feature is available for CO₂ and PM2.5.

• Data can be displayed graphically along with real-time measurements. These graphs allow tracking of air quality changes on a daily, weekly, and monthly basis.

• Wake-up sensor activates the screen when approached or with a hand gesture. This function can be disabled via the app.

• Screen brightness cannot be adjusted for battery saving purposes.

• Usage time with a fully charged battery is approximately 4 hours.

What is TVOC?

TVOC (Total Volatile Organic Compounds) refers to the total of chemical compounds that can evaporate into a gaseous state in the air.
It can be found in paint, cleaning products, adhesives, furniture, and construction materials.
High TVOC levels can lead to health issues like headaches, irritation, and fatigue.
Therefore, monitoring TVOC levels is important for a healthy living environment. Measurements are expressed in mg/m³.

What is Formaldehyde (HCHO)?

Formaldehyde is a chemical with toxic and allergenic effects even at low concentrations.
It can especially be emitted from sources like building materials, furniture, cleaning products, and cigarette smoke.
Long-term exposure can cause headaches, nausea, skin disorders, and respiratory problems.
Because it is classified as a carcinogen, regular measurements should be taken in environments with sensitive groups.
Measurements are expressed in mg/m³ units.

What is Particulate Measurement?

Particulates are very small solid or liquid materials suspended in the air. They can originate from sources like dust, pollen, and smoke.
They are measured with PM1, PM2.5, and PM10 classifications:

• PM1: Particles smaller than 1 micrometer in diameter. Source: Vehicle engines, cigarette smoke, chemical vapors.

• PM2.5: Includes particles smaller than 2.5 micrometers in diameter. Source: Exhaust gases, forest fires, industrial emissions.

• PM10: Refers to particles smaller than 10 micrometers in diameter. Source: Dust, pollen, roadside dust.
