Aeroqual Series 500 Handheld Air Quality Monitor
One meter, many sensor heads. You unclip the head and clip on a different one depending on what you are measuring. There is nothing to set up when you swap. The calibration is stored in each head.
This is the meter you use for spot checks, for finding a problem, and for checking that a system is doing what it should.Â

Aeroqual Series 500 Questions and Answers
No. One gas or dust head at a time. The optional temperature and humidity sensor can be fitted at the same time as a gas head.
Only the sensor heads do. The meter itself does not. Aeroqual recommends recalibrating each head after one year and replacing it after two years.
Aeroqual advises the EOZ head (0 to 10 ppm) for indoor ozone work. For very high levels, use the EOZH (0 to 30 ppm).
A full working day on one charge. The battery can be changed in the field.
Up to 8,188 readings. When it is full, the newest readings replace the oldest.
The Aeroqual is a handheld meter for spot checks, and it measures ozone. The Atmocube stays in one room and records the air every minute, but does not measure ozone.
