How do I understand the PM2.5, PM10, and VOC buttons on my Sans air purifier?Updated 19 days ago

The PM2.5, PM10, and VOC readings on your Sans air purifier help monitor specific types of air pollutants in your environment:

  • PM2.5: This reading measures ultrafine airborne particles that are 2.5 microns or smaller, such as dust, smoke, pollen, and pet dander. These particles can penetrate deep into the lungs and even enter the bloodstream.
  • PM10: These are slightly larger particles up to 10 microns, including coarser dust and mold spores. While they are easier to filter and don't penetrate as deeply as PM2.5, they can still be a concern.
  • VOC: VOCs are gaseous chemicals released from various sources like cleaning products and paints. These can affect your indoor air quality, potentially leading to health concerns with prolonged exposure. Your Sans unit detects VOC levels in the air to adjust its cleaning process accordingly.
