Know exactly when to clean

Set alarms in your system software to indicate when a certain soiling ratio has been reached and cleaning is needed.

Maintenance free

It has no moving parts and it does not need sunlight to make its measurements. The DustIQ is cleaned when all other panels are cleaned

Convenient set-up

The sensor is integrated into leading plant management software.
