Which device to measure PM2.5 and PM10

Hi There,

I’ve been searching around for a device to monitor my workshop for dust in order to control venting.

It’s easy to find a stand alone device like this one:

or

Preferred I would like to monitor PM1, 2.5 and 10.
I can see IKEA has a low price PM2.5 device, but it seems to have some work done with scripting etc. and I’m sure if it’s reliable?
Also I can find a German based device, but the price tag is €250+ and I need two. I will not spend that much…
There are many air-quality devices, but the majority does not measure PM (Particle Matters) which is basically dust in the air.
However it could also be great if such device measures more than just PM, eg. HVOC, CO2, Temp, Humidity etc.

Any suggestions?
Thanks a lot

The Air-Q has several air quality indicators. Not only PM1, 2.5 and 10, but also CO, VOC, etc

And most important: it has a Homey app:

Thanks, it has all the things, but costs €399… That is too pricy for me when I need multiple:-)
And honestly, the devices from Amazon in my post does the same, so paying €350 just for interacting with homey is not my cup of tea :slight_smile:
