Description

The MPM30-C6 employs an infrared scattering technique to detect and quantify airborne particulate matter. Its optical system and signal processing circuitry are engineered to provide stable concentration readings for particles ranging from 0.3 to 10 microns in diameter. The sensor outputs data via a configurable UART serial interface or a pulse-width modulation (PWM) signal, offering flexibility for different microcontroller platforms like Arduino, ESP32, or industrial PLCs.

Built for long-term environmental monitoring, the sensor features a durable housing and is rated for operation across a wide temperature and humidity span. Its specified accuracy of ±15 µg/m³ or ±15% of reading (whichever is greater) under standard conditions ensures reliable data for air quality assessment and pollution control initiatives.

Key Features

  • Infrared optical detection system for precise PM2.5 and PM10 concentration measurement.
  • Dual-output flexibility with selectable UART (serial data) or PWM (pulse width) interfaces.
  • Compact and robust form factor (46 x 34 x 18.15 mm) for easy integration into enclosures and devices.
  • Extended operational lifespan with a rated life cycle of ≥8 years under normal use.
  • Wide operating temperature range from -20°C to +75°C for indoor and outdoor applications.
  • Requires clean DC power supply; input ripple should be maintained below 50mV for optimal performance.

Applications

  • Indoor air quality monitors and smart HVAC system particulate filters.
  • Portable environmental sensing devices and wearable pollution detectors.
  • Industrial process monitoring for dust and aerosol emission control.
  • Integration into weather stations and urban air quality monitoring networks.
  • Educational and research projects focusing on atmospheric science and pollution.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the output interface of the MPM30-C6 sensor and how do I use it?

The MPM30-C6 provides dual output options: a UART serial interface and a PWM signal. You must configure the sensor's mode via its pins to select the desired output. For UART, connect the TX/RX pins to a microcontroller's serial port for digital data reading. For PWM, the output pin provides a pulse signal whose width corresponds to the PM concentration.

What power supply requirements does this PM sensor have?

The sensor requires a stable 5V DC power supply with a tolerance of ±5%. The working current is ≤15mA. It is critical to keep power supply ripple below 50mV to prevent noise from affecting the sensitive infrared measurement circuitry and ensure accurate readings.

What Particle sizes and concentration range can this sensor detect?

The MPM30-C6 detects particulate matter in the size range from PM0.3 (0.3 microns) up to PM10 (10 microns). It reports mass concentration within a range of 0 to 1000 micrograms per Cubic Sensor meter (µg/m³), covering typical ambient air quality monitoring requirements for PM1.0, PM2.5, and PM10.

Does the sensor module include a connector or cable?

No, the module is supplied as a standalone sensor unit with a 6-pin ZH1.5mm female socket. You will need to source a matching ZH1.5mm 6-pin plug connector and cable separately to wire it to your power supply and microcontroller.

How long does the sensor take to provide a stable reading after power-on?

The sensor has a specified power-on stabilization time of ≤10 seconds. After this brief warm-up period, it will begin outputting valid particulate concentration data. For the most accurate readings, allow a short additional period for the internal airflow to stabilize.
