With the release of the new SN-GCQB1 Laser Type Air Quality Sensor, Panasonic Industry is making a significant leap forward in air quality monitoring technology, setting new standards for accuracy, compactness, and longevity for a wide field of relevant installation designs.

Engineered to provide precise measurements of particulate matter, temperature, humidity, and total volatile organic compounds (TVOCs), this air quality sensor may re-define the perception and management of air quality in different environments.

One of the standout features of Panasonic’s SN-GCQB1 is its remarkable precision coupled with an ultra-compact housing, making it one of the smallest on the market. With optimised air pathway structure to minimise dust accumulation - and thus to protect electronic components - this sensor ensures unparalleled accuracy even in the most challenging surroundings.

Designed to detect particulate matter in three key classes - PM1.0, PM2.5, and PM10 - the sensor utilises a high-precision optical sensor and a unique optical design for enhanced small particle detection. Additionally, its auto-calibration feature guarantees long-term detection accuracy, providing reliable data over extended periods.

In addition to particulate matter detection, the SN-GCQB1 monitors temperature, humidity, and total volatile organic compounds (TVOCs). Equipped with a special resin outer shell, it is protected against electromagnetic waves, ensuring improved long-term drift performance, measurement stability, and response time.

With a projected lifetime exceeding 10 years, this sensor offers longevity, making it an ideal choice for a wide range of applications such as factory clean air management, environmental sensing, HVAC installations, room air conditioners, air purifiers, and more.

By providing accurate data on air quality parameters, including estimated carbon dioxide concentration calculated by TVOCs and IAQ levels according to UBA standards (German Environment Agency), this latest air quality monitoring innovation from Panasonic will offer an unrivalled level of sensor precision, reliability, and versatility for a vast field of relevant product designs.
