Particulate Matter Size Comparison
Particulate Matter (PM) is a combination of solid particles and liquid droplets suspended in the air. Due to their minute size, these particles can enter the lungs and impact long-term health.
PM1
1µm or smaller
PM2.5
2.5µm or smaller
PM10
10µm or smaller
Understanding Air Pollutants: PM
Particulate Matter (PM) is categorised by its diameter, with PM2.5 (fine particles) and PM10 (coarse particles) being the most significant for air quality monitoring.

- PM10
- PM2.5

Learn about each PM size
PM1
These are particles with a diameter of 1 micrometre or smaller. They are capable of entering the bloodstream and causing systemic health complications.
PM2.5
Fine particles smaller than 2.5 micrometres. They are small enough to reach deep into the lungs, potentially leading to chronic respiratory issues.
PM10
Particles with a diameter of 10 micrometres or smaller, such as dust and pollen. While larger, they can still cause irritation and respiratory allergies.
Particle Count
This metric represents the total number of particles present in the air, providing a broader view of overall air quality regardless of specific particle size.

Case Study By IIIT Hyderabad
Comparative Evaluation of New Low-Cost Particulate Matter Sensors
Study Brief : So, the paper involves our Prana Air device alongside other low-cost sensors for PM2.5 and PM10 measurements. For the results, they compared them to the standard Aeroqual Series-500. Since, their challenge with traditional devices was the high cost, heaviness, and frequent service needs, which limited usin in cities.
Note : Monitors update in every 30 seconds, moreover our PM sensors have a resolution of ±1.0 micrograms per cubic meter, and our NO2 sensors boast a resolution of ±1.0 ppb.
