This easy-to-use VOC meter is ideal for measuring total volatile organic compound (TVOC) and formaldehyde (HCHO) levels in homes, offices, factories, laboratories, hotels, schools and other indoor environments. The VOC meter's long-lasting rechargeable lithium-polymer (LiPo) battery and included 9V power adapter\/charger ensure uninterrupted IAQ monitoring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeaturing a compact and lightweight yet heavy-duty design, the VOC meter displays units in parts per million (ppm) or milligrams per cubic meter (mg\/m³).

Evaporation sources can include household cleaning products, construction and building materials, and indoor furnishings, flooring and decor. Emission sources can include traffic exhaust, tobacco or cigarette smoke and industrial pollution. Even food preparation and human metabolism can be sources for airborne VOCs.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLess obvious is the proliferation of various impurities not firmly embedded in products. These impurities can be slowly released from the product's surface into the air. This applies, for example, to residual solvents in plastics (monomers), auxiliaries such as plasticizers, solubilizers, antioxidants, stabilizers and catalysts used in the production process, as well as by-products such as fragrances, flame retardants and biocidal agents. VOCs called terpenes can be released from materials of natural origin, like wood. VOCs also can be formed during reactions between oxygen, ozone or water with natural ingredients in wood and vegetable oils.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat are the health effects of VOCs?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eUsually, indoor VOC concentrations are low and present little risk to human health or safety. However, prolonged or excessive exposure to VOCs can lead to adverse health effects including headaches, dizziness, fatigue, nausea, liver and kidney damage, and cancer. Occupants worried about the presence of VOCs in homes, schools and businesses should seek advice from IAQ experts such as industrial hygienists and heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) professionals.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow can indoor VOC concentrations be reduced?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eConsumers should choose low-emission products and materials. Environmentally friendly labeling such as the Blue Angel is a helpful purchasing aid. Construction materials successfully tested according to the AgBB scheme with a recognized Ecolabel provide assurance that the potential for VOC emissions is minimized. Regular testing, adjusting and balancing (TAB) of HVAC systems should be performed to alleviate VOC concentration through proper ventilation.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr class=\"clear\"\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-pane clear fade in\" id=\"tab-customdata2\"\u003e\n\u003ch1 class=\"headline\"\u003eHighlights\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"usertext\"\u003e- Measures total volatile organic compound (TVOC) and formaldehyde (HCHO) levels\u003cbr\u003e- Displays units in parts per million (ppm) or milligrams per cubic meter (mg\/m³)\u003cbr\u003e- Long-lasting rechargeable lithium-polymer (LiPo) battery\u003cbr\u003e- Audible and visual alarms\u003cbr\u003e- Large, easy-to-read LCD screen\u003cbr\u003e- User-friendly three-button operation\u003cbr\u003e- Compact and lightweight yet heavy-duty design\u003cbr class=\"clear\"\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-pane clear fade in\" id=\"tab-customdata3\"\u003e\n\u003ch1 class=\"headline\"\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"usertext\"\u003e\n\u003ctable border=\"0\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\" cellspacing=\"0\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd width=\"156\" valign=\"top\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd width=\"371\" valign=\"top\"\u003e \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd valign=\"top\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHCHO\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd valign=\"top\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e0.00... 5.00 ppm or mg\/m³\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd valign=\"top\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eResolution\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd valign=\"top\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e0.01 ppm or mg\/m³\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd valign=\"top\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAccuracy\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd valign=\"top\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e± 5% of measured value\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd valign=\"top\"\u003e \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd valign=\"top\"\u003e \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd valign=\"top\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMeasuring range\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd valign=\"top\"\u003e \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd valign=\"top\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTVOC\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd valign=\"top\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e0.00... 9.99 ppm or mg\/m³\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd valign=\"top\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eResolution\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd valign=\"top\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e0.01 ppm or mg\/m³\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd valign=\"top\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAccuracy\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd valign=\"top\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e± 5% of measured value\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd valign=\"top\"\u003e \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd valign=\"top\"\u003e \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd valign=\"top\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eResponse time\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd valign=\"top\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u0026lt;
