PM2.5 Air Quality Sensor Module – PMS5003 – (Particulate Matter)

Check out our Tutorial with this sensor here

The PM2.5 Air Quality Sensor (PMS5003) functions as a digital and universal particle concentration sensor. It accurately measures the number of suspended particles in the air, known as particle concentration, and outputs this data through a digital interface. Users can integrate this sensor into various instruments or environmental improvement equipment to promptly obtain accurate concentration data.

This advanced sensor module provides accurate real-time measurements of particulate matter (PM) concentrations in the air, helping you to assess and monitor indoor and outdoor air quality.

Connectivity:

The PMS5003 sensor can be interfaced with a range of microcontrollers using the UART protocol. Simply connect the TX/RX pins of your controller to the TX/RX pins of the sensor. Use this sensor with microcontrollers such as the ESP32, Teensy or Arduino microcontrollers. Please note a logic level shifter is required to interface this sensor with a microcontroller that uses 5V logic levels such as an Arduino Uno.

Microcontrollers such as the following can be used without a logic level shifter:

STM32 “Black Pill”	Teensy4.0	RP2040 Core Board

Uses:

• Air quality measurement devices
• Particulate matter research and analysis
• Indoor air quality assessment

Please Note:

• For outdoor applications, a vented enclosure undercover is recommended to protect the sensor from the elements.
• The TTL logic level for this sensor is 3.3V. If your microcontroller uses a logic level greater than 3.3V, you will need to use a logic level shifting module.
