SAPS series

Spending time in an enclosed vehicle with poor air quality can be detrimental to our health. One of the most dangerous air pollutants from outside traffic or sources inside the vehicle is PM2.5 – particulate matter with a diameter of less than 2.5 microns. These miniscule particles of dust, soot and chemical compounds can be inhaled, leading to a range of health complications. By issuing alerts via the LIN when cabin air quality changes, our PM2.5 sensors inform the HVAC control system that adjustments need to be made to improve ventilation and air exchange.  Our SAPS series ensure high air quality as well as a safe and comfortable driver experience. 

Features and benefits

Based on advanced laser-based measurement technology the SAPS series ensures precise and reliable data, allowing automotive HVAC systems to optimize in-cabin air quality with unmatched accuracy. By leveraging innovative sensor technology, our solution continuously monitors air conditions, providing real-time insights to maintain a healthier and more comfortable driving experience. With an ultra-fast response time, it enables IAQ control mechanisms to react instantly to environmental changes, ensuring that passengers always breathe cleaner air, free from particulate matter.

 

Designed to perform in even the harshest conditions, our sensor is built with superior dust and water resistance, guaranteeing long-term durability and consistent performance regardless of external factors. This robust design ensures uninterrupted operation, making it a reliable solution for both everyday and extreme driving environments. Additionally, our commitment to safety and environmental responsibility is reflected in full compliance with RoHS and REACH regulations.

 

Fully customizable in-house, the SAPS series is engineered to be effortlessly integrated, reducing installation time and costs while enhancing overall user experience.
