Access Sensor Tech.

We develop instruments to help you understand the air and environment. Some amazing successes here:

Sometimes data are boring. Like this volumetric flow control data from two pump channels on our HHB. 90 hours of sampling at 2 LPM maintaining flow to within 2% of target. Of course, excellent flow control is needed for accurate PM & VOCs sampling.

We’ve wrapped up field-testing of our Home Health Box and think it's the easiest, most comprehensive, quietest way to sample indoor air. Fill out this form to order discounted, refurbished HHBs from our study! #AirPollution #IAQ #ParticulateMatter

Wow! Do you think people are interested in understanding indoor air quality? Our project with @NIMHD to make gold standard IAQ measurements accessible to people in their homes is taking off.

Amazing work from our CSU collaborator @ShantanuJathar and co-founder @Smogdr @ColoradoStateU groups. They're out using the patented UPAS air sampling products to gather air pollution information in LA. Products developed with funding from @NIEHS @NIOSH

Published today! 100's of 24h personal & indoor PM2.5 & PM10 measurements collected at 2 LPM w/ UPAS compared to PMIs + Apex2 pumps; Spearman correlation > 0.8, normalized mean difference < 16%. All samples collected in the Central Valley w/ CSU & @CCEJN.

We just released a new version of our astr package for reading UPAS and HHB log files into R! This version won’t throw an error if you try to read an empty sample log; it will just return a data frame with zero rows. Install from GitHub! #Rstats https://t.co/4yTOU8UbaJ

We just posted an updated UPAS v2.1 and v2.1 PLUS User Guide. What's new?
1) An improved explanation of what happens when you start a sample from the app.
2) Advice for preparing the internal Li-ion battery for shipping or long-term storage.

Did you know that you can program the time-resolved PM sensor in the UPAS v2.1 PLUS to operate on a duty cycle so the UPAS can run longer on a single battery charge? Looking for advice on selecting the best setting for your sampling application? Chec...

How do outdoor PM2.5 concentrations measured using UPAS compare to those measured using U.S. EPA FRMs and FEMs? Very well, actually! See data from a two-week collocation at a regulatory monitoring site in Denver in our latest blog.

"Future studies utilizing high-resolution data could improve the accuracy of these measurements. Heterogeneity among different studies also emphasizes the need to standardize methods for measuring PM2.5 exposure and diagnosing asthma." #weagree

If you live in or near Alameda County, check out this link to see if you might be eligible to receive a new induction stove and participate in a study on indoor air quality!

[Berkeley Air @BerkeleyAir]

The Health-e Communities program is now live! Ava Community Energy is partnering with Berkeley Air to assess indoor air quality for a new gas-to-electric stove swap out program. Qualified applicants will receive a new induction range, free! Learn more here https://t.co/TPVviQbvKW

Another #ISES2024 talk featuring PM2.5 samples collected with our UPAS today (Thurs) at 10:00 in Level 2-Joyce: "The impacts of a coal-to-heat pump heating transition on indoor, outdoor, and personal PM2.5 exposure in 50 rural villages in Beijing, China"

The day in data #ISES2024 Montreal. Sunrise (LUX sensor, pre-programmed start at 6 am sharp), walk to the conference (GPS, PM2.5, accel, temp), a bit concerning CO2 level at the poster session. Equally pleasant walk home. Ces idées qui vous ont été présentées par UPASv2.1+.

Sampling PM in challenging dusty environments? Today (Wed 23 Oct) at #ISES2024 from 2:45 to 4:00 PM you can see posters #972 and #973 on the new pre-cyclone impactor retrofit insert for our 1 LPM PM2.5 inlet.
