Apollo Automation - AIR-1 air quality monitor (10 in 1)
AIR-1 is a 10-in-1 Home Assistant-compatible air quality sensor. It measures the following data in particular:
- Temperature
- Humidity
- PM1 (fine particles)
- PM2.5 (fine particles)
- PM4 (fine particles)
- PM10 (fine particles)
- VOC (volatile organic compounds)
- NOx (nitrogen oxides)
- CO2 (carbon dioxide)
- Barometric pressure
The Apollo AIR-1 is the most compact, feature-rich, affordable, and expandable air sensor for Home Assistant. Using wifi and ESPHome, it's locally controlled with no subscription or cloud required.
It is powered by USB-C and a standard wall plug.
The AIR-1 measures only 61 mm x 61 mm x 30 mm, and its aesthetic design allows it to blend seamlessly into the surroundings.
It comes equipped with sensors for temperature, humidity, PM1, PM2.5, PM4, PM10, VOC, NOx, CO2, and barometric pressure.
Measurement of PM1, PM2.5, PM4, PM10, VOC, NOx, Temperature, Humidity (SEN55)
Many air quality measurements are possible thanks to the high-quality environmental sensor developed by a highly reputable manufacturer. This sensor integrated into the AIR-1 has a lifespan of 10 years in continuous use, whereas most market particle sensors only have a lifespan of 3 years.
It is possible/recommended to configure an Offset to account for temperature offset due to heat generated by the ESP32-C3.
Integrated CO2 Sensor (SCD40)
The AIR-1 is also equipped with a pre-calibrated, ready-to-use CO2 sensor. This will allow you, for example, to receive alerts to indicate when to open a window or to automate the operation of the fan in your heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system when CO2 levels are high.
Barometric Pressure (DPS310)
This pressure sensor powers the SCD40 (CO2) for more accurate readings.
Bluetooth Tracker (ESP32-C3-Mini) - YAML Configuration Required
Use the built-in Bluetooth to track Bluetooth devices in your home, allowing you to know which devices are closest to the sensor. You will need to know the MAC addresses of the Bluetooth devices you want to track.
- Find your phone if you've left it at the office or in the bedroom.
- Know who just entered the room.
- Track a tag attached to your dog's collar.
RGB Pixels
Allows for configuring color-coded alerts for different home scenarios.
- Flashes red if air quality is unhealthy.
- Flashes green at night when it's time to take out the trash.
- Flashes blue when it's treat time for your puppy.
Power and Sensor Expansion Connector
A connector that will integrate future sensors and power methods. Some expansion boards are currently in development, but no release date has been set yet.
