Ethera Profil’Air IAQ monitoring kit
Formaldehyde monitoring kit

Profil’air ® diagnostic kits include a new Formaldehyde (HCHO) measurement technology developed by Ethera* and based on highly sensitive nanoporous materials. Performances are equivalent to chromatography methods, with a direct optical reading of sensors for instant results after exposure. The precision obtained allows to efficiently diagnose indoor air quality. It also offers optical reading module quantifies the color variation of the nanoporous sensors and transmits it digitally. It connects to a computer through its USB port. The associated Profil’air® Manager application allows the user to store and manage all of the data.
