Why Battery Choice Matters for IAQ Monitors

With rising concerns about indoor air quality (IAQ) in homes, offices, and industrial environments,
portable and desktop air quality monitors have become indispensable.
Behind their compact size and real-time monitoring capabilities lies a critical component — the battery.

1. Long Runtime for Continuous Monitoring

  • Air quality monitors must continuously power sensors such as PM2.5, CO₂, VOC, and formaldehyde
  • Stable voltage output is essential for accurate and uninterrupted data collection

2. Compact and Lightweight Design

Most IAQ monitors require slim battery solutions to fit handheld or desktop enclosures.
Custom Lithium Polymer Battery
packs are widely adopted due to their flexible shapes, thin profiles, and lightweight structure.

3. Safety and Reliability

As IAQ monitors are often used in sensitive indoor environments such as homes, offices, schools, and hospitals,
battery safety is a top priority. Integrated smart BMS ensures protection against overcharge,
over-discharge, short circuit, and thermal risks.

Typical Battery Solutions for Air Quality Monitors

  • Battery Configuration: 1S or 2S LiPo battery packs (3.7V / 7.4V nominal voltage)
  • Capacity Range: 1500–4000mAh depending on sensor load and wireless modules
  • Runtime: 6–12 hours of continuous operation per charge
  • Charging: USB or USB-C charging supported
  • Certifications: UN38.3, CE, IEC62133

For projects requiring enhanced safety or longer service life,
