Description:

GQ air quality monitors are serial products that are able to detect air quality around users' personal air environment. They are designed and developed by GQ Electronics LLC, Seattle, USA. Those monitors are portable, hand-held, convenient, and also have a real-time measurement that can accurately evaluate multiple measures of air quality.

Model Air-700 Series measures concentrations of HCO (Formaldehyde), Temperature, Air Pressure in real-time display. This air quality monitor is featured with easy operational pressed buttons and installed with a high contrast black/white LCD module and one front LED indicator. The LCD display screen offers users real-time data monitoring. 

 The device comes with a built-in audible and visual alarm. It can be used for HCHO detection and monitoring both indoor and outdoor. Users can change and set the alarm triggering threshold level on each type of testing. The alarm beeps are to remind you that the air quality is unhealthy and you may need to take action. 

The device is equipped with a USB port, utilized for communication and external power supply/charging of the internal rechargeable battery. Using external power, continuous data monitoring is possible. Using an external power source, you will not have to worry about the battery’s charge condition or any data loss.

The GQ Air-700 series have the history mode which allows you to save data every minute. It gathers measurements every second then calculates the average every minute and logs the data to the device storage to view in History mode. 1-minute average readings are saved every minute to view later either on the device or with GQ AIR PRO software. The internal memory can store up to 18 days of historical data. Users are able to download the history data to a computer for further analysis. The device integrated a real-time clock on board to provide the true timestamps for history data recording.
