SDS011 Sensor?

Nova Fitness's SDS011 sensor can measure the concentration of fine dust particles between 0.3 and 10 μm in the air using the principle of laser scattering. Using digital output and its built-in fan, it is both stable and reliable.

SDS011 fine dust Arduino sensor

 

 

 

 

GP2Y1010 sensors use the IR-LED method, and theSDS011, HPMA, ZH03 sensors measure fine dust with the laser method.

 

 

The SDS011 sensor can measure PM2.5 ultra-fine dust and PM10 fine dust. The measurement range is 0~999.9 ㎍/㎥. This model has a built-in fan like the PMS7003 sensor.

 

 

 

The Aerosol and Air Quality research paper (19: 181-194, 2019) showed that the Novafitness SDS011 sensor is superior to the Sharp GP2Y1010AU0F and Winsen ZH03A sensors.

Software Coding

Run the example file in Steamedu123_Sensor-master > examples.

/*
   @205 SDS011 Fine Dust Sensor
*/

#include <C205_Steam_Air_NovaSDS011_Dust.h>    // Internal library header file

#define RxPIN 3
#define TxPIN 2

SteamNovaSDS011 novasds011(RxPIN, TxPIN); // pin number

void setup() {
  Serial.begin(9600);     // Start serial communication at a speed of 9600bps.
  novasds011.begin();     // (1) Initialize the sensor.
}

void loop() {
  novasds011.read();      // (2) Measure the value of the sensor.
  novasds011.display();   // (3) Output the sensor value.
}
