Honeywell Transmission Risk Air Monitor
Honeywell has introduced the Transmission Risk Air Monitor as a cost-effective solution to reduce the risk of exposure to any airborne viral transmission*. This can be used in places such as schools and universities classrooms, restaurant and café settings and any other small-to-medium-sized buildings.
Honeywell Transmission Risk Air Monitor Version 2 Available Here.
The Honeywell Transmission Risk Air Monitor (HTRAM) observes carbon dioxide (CO2) levels and considers some user-controlled settings (like the type of human activity present*) to alert users when there is a high risk of transmission. This is a real-time monitor.
A traffic light system of red, yellow and green is used to easily identify the current conditions. A sound alarm will also make users aware if the risk of airborne transmissions (based on detectable CO2 levels) have increased.
The HTRAM has three pre-programmed settings to identify what type of indoor setting the monitor is being used. These are low, medium and high activity. Examples of each type of activity can be found below. High activity settings for areas such as a gym, arenas or community centres are recommended for coverage of approximately 800-1000 square feet.
Honeywell has used guidance from research by the University of Colorado and combined this with Honeywell algorithms to determine typical air quality conditions. This includes factors such as the average size of a room, the number of people in it, a typical breathing rate and the duration of occupancy.
