Air quality sensors are devices designed to monitor environmental conditions by measuring factors such as temperature, humidity, total volatile organic compounds (TVOCs), motion, and pressure. These sensors are used in a wide range of applications, including:
Condition Monitoring: Ensuring optimal air quality and environmental conditions in indoor spaces, such as offices, schools, and hospitals.
Vape Detection: Identifying vaping or smoking activities in restricted areas by detecting changes in air quality or the presence of specific chemicals.
Asset Protection: Monitoring the environment around valuable assets to prevent damage due to poor air quality or abnormal conditions.
These sensors provide real-time data and insights, helping maintain healthier, safer environments while also contributing to regulatory compliance and security.
Essentially, an air quality sensor monitors one or more environmental factors (e.g., temperature, humidity, TVOCs). Most air quality sensors function by converting the physical parameters they measure into an electrical signal. This signal is then amplified and processed to provide a readable output of the measured quantity. The collected data can be used to assess and manage the environment, ensuring optimal conditions and supporting applications such as health monitoring, safety controls, and compliance with air quality standards.
Air quality monitoring serves a wide range of applications. In office buildings and classrooms, it helps maintain healthy indoor air quality and a safe environment. Verkada's Air Quality Sensors monitor key factors such as TVOC, CO2, humidity, temperature, and air pollutant levels. Additionally, they can detect vaping, unsafe on-site behavior, occupancy levels, and more. In warehouses and factories, Verkada sensors are valuable for monitoring temperature and humidity to prevent goods from spoiling and to protect equipment from damage.
An air quality sensor offers several protections for your business:
Ensuring a Safe and Comfortable Environment: By monitoring indoor air quality, you can provide a safe workplace for employees. Additionally, tracking temperature and humidity helps prevent spoilage of goods and protects equipment from damage.
Improving Efficiency and Productivity: Optimising environmental conditions through air quality monitoring enhances productivity. High levels of pollutants can impair cognitive function, irritate the respiratory system, and cause fatigue, all of which can negatively impact performance.
Maximising Energy Savings: By tracking temperature, humidity, and occupancy levels, you can fine-tune your heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems to reduce energy consumption and cut operational costs.
Without an air quality sensor, you lose the ability to monitor and optimise environmental conditions for safety, comfort, and productivity. This could lead to higher costs, reduced productivity, and potentially hazardous working conditions. Additionally, without proper monitoring, you miss the opportunity to save energy by efficiently regulating your heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems.
The Verkada Command Platform is a cloud-based security management system that centralises the control of all Verkada devices, such as cameras, access control, and sensors. It allows users to monitor, manage, and access real-time and historical data from anywhere using an intuitive, web-based interface.
The Verkada Command Platform uses end-to-end encryption, both in transit and at rest, to secure all data. Additionally, data is stored in Australian-based servers, ensuring compliance with local regulations. Access to the platform is tightly controlled through user permissions and multi-factor authentication.
