Key features

The AirVisual Outdoor delivers comprehensive air quality monitoring with high-accuracy sensors (PM1, PM2.5, PM10, temperature, humidity, and pressure) verified by METAS. It features modular, field-replaceable sensors, durable weatherproof design, and multiple connectivity options (Wi-Fi, Ethernet, optional 4G). Real-time data is easily accessible via free mobile and desktop apps for effortless monitoring anywhere.

AirVisual Outdoor

Monitor up to 8 environmental parameters

Measures smoke (PM1), fine dust (PM2.5), coarse dust (PM10), temperature, relative humidity, and barometric pressure. Available optional CO2 sensor. Ideal for monitoring local outdoor air quality in residential neighborhoods, traffic school grounds, industrial areas and cities. AirVisual Outdoor is great for measuring air pollution exposure from traffic, industry, construction agriculture, dust storms, wildfire and waste burning. 

The AirVisual Outdoor air quality monitor is designed to detect pollutants

Outdoors our monitor detects and reports on harmful particles and gases. The AirVisual Outdoor can monitor up to 8 environmental parameters; AQI, PM1, PM2.5, PM10, Temperature, Humidity, Barometric Pressure and optional CO2.

AQI

Air quality index

AQI, or Air Quality Index, is a system for translating sometimes confusing or unintuitive pollutant concentration measurements, into one easy-to-understand scale to clearly represent the health risk posed by ambient air pollution.

 PM1

Ultra-fine particles

Particulate matter (PM) less than 1 micron in size is called PM1 (sometimes PM1.0). PM1 is considered especially dangerous due to its extremely small size. The smaller the diameter of a particle, the more harm it can typically cause. Tiny airborne particles like PM1 are small enough to penetrate lung tissue and get into the bloodstream. PM1 can then circulate throughout the body and cause systemic health effects.

PM2.5

Fine particles

PM2.5 particles measure 2.5 microns or less in diameter. PM2.5 particles are so small they can only be seen with an electron microscope. Of all air pollution measures, PM2.5 pollution poses the greatest health threat (1). Due to its small size, PM2.5 can remain suspended in the air for long periods of time and can be absorbed deep into the bloodstream upon inhalation.

 PM10

Coarse particules

PM10 is suspended coarse particulate matter, either solid or liquid, with a diameter of 10 micrometers (µm) or less. For comparison, a human hair is, on average, 50 to 70 µm in diameter.

 Temp.

 Temperature 

Temperature is vital for air quality monitoring as it affects pollutant formation, dispersion, and sensor accuracy. High temperatures can increase pollution, while temperature inversions trap pollutants, worsening air quality. Monitoring it helps predict pollution risks and ensures accurate readings.

 Humidity 

 Relative humidity 

Humidity is important for air quality monitoring as it affects health, pollutant behavior, and sensor accuracy. High humidity can worsen respiratory issues, promote mold, and alter pollutant levels, while low humidity increases virus spread. Monitoring it ensures a healthier environment.

Barometer

Barometric pressure of high & low pressure systems

Barometric pressure is important for monitoring air quality because it affects the movement and dispersion of pollutants in the atmosphere. High pressure systems can cause stagnant air conditions, trapping pollutants close to the ground and leading to poor air quality. In contrast, low pressure systems can enhance air circulation, dispersing pollutants more effectively.

CO2*

Optional CO2 modules

At room temperature, carbon dioxide (CO2) is a colorless, odorless gas formed from carbon and oxygen atoms. The fourth most common gas found in the earth’s atmosphere next to nitrogen, oxygen, and argon, CO2can also be liquid or solid. In its solid form, CO2 is known as dry ice.

★★★★ Overall rating 4.2 (5) reviews

Customers value the AirVisual Outdoor for its accurate, real-time air quality monitoring

★★★★★ Has everything that I was looking for

The AirVisual Outdoor had all of the features that I was looking for. Setting it up was very quick and it didn't take them too long to approve my station and make it public.

Ray T.

★★★★★ Simple to set up and informative

It was easy to set up and install. I got the indoor and outdoor monitor together. I would recommend getting both together as you get the full range of information. I live next to the freeway so I was interested to see the readings of pollution and PM 2.5 levels outside of my house compared to indoors...

★★★★★ Robust and precise, feature-packed and (sic) seamless integration

Both the iPhone app and the device itself exceeded my expectations in terms of design and functionality. The seamless integration between hardware and software not only made it easy to monitor the air quality around my home but also allowed me to share this valuable information with the wider community.
