    摘要: An air conditioner including a first filter; a second filter located downstream of the first filter; a dust amount sensor located upstream of the first filter and having a hole through which dust passes, the dust amount sensor configured to transmit, per unit of time, each of a first total, which is an amount of dust in a first size range, and a second total, which is an amount of dust in a second size range smaller than the first size range, of the dust passing through the hole; and a controller configured to output a service signal for the first filter if the accumulated value of the first total transmitted from the dust amount sensor exceeds a first set value, and output a service signal for the second filter if the accumulated value of the second total transmitted from the dust amount sensor exceeds a second set value.

    摘要: A ventilation device for supplying air to a clean room having a passage duct (16) with a waste air inlet (13) for receiving waste air form the room and a supply air outlet (14) for discharging supply air (34) to the room. A speed controllable rotatable fan (49) is provided in the passage duct (16) for conveying air from a suction chamber (47) coupled to the waste air inlet (13) to a pressure chamber (48) coupled to the supply air outlet (14). An outside air duct (22) is provided for receiving outside air (27) which is emitted into the passage duct (16), and an exhaust air duct (28) is provided for receiving a part of the waste air (32) extracted from the room for exhaust to the outside. First and second air flow regulators (36, 37) are provided in the respective air ducts (22, 28), and a control unit (68) is provided for controlling operation of the air flow regulators (36, 37) and the rotational speed of the fan (49).

    摘要: Air-cleaning control is performed in accordance with a situation of motion of a person and brightness in a room. An air-cleaning device (100) includes: a first determination unit (11) that determines, from a detection signal from a person detection sensor (31), whether a state of an air-cleaning target room is at least any of a state where a person is absent in the air-cleaning target room, a state where a person is present and a motion amount is small, and a state where a person is present and the motion amount is large; a second determination unit (12) that determines, from a detection signal from as illuminance sensor (32), whether the state of the air-cleaning target room is at least any of a state where it is bright inside the air-cleaning target room and a state where it is dark inside the air-cleaning target room; and an operation control unit (13) that controls an operation of an air-cleaning function by using determination results of the first determination unit (11) and the second determination unit (12).

    摘要: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for monitoring air quality with multiple sensing devices. The methods, systems, and apparatus include actions of: obtaining first sensor data from a sensor that is not an air quality sensor, determining that the first sensor data satisfy a first air quality criterion, in response to determining that the first sensor data satisfy the first air quality criterion, obtaining second sensor data from an air quality sensor, determining that the second sensor data satisfy a second air quality criterion, and based on a determination that the second sensor data satisfy the second air quality criterion, activating an air quality device.

    摘要: An fluid monitoring system can include a filter having an upstream face and a downstream face and defining a form factor, a sensor package arranged within the form factor of the filter to detect at least one quality factor of a surrounding medium, a transmitter electronically coupled to the sensor package and including an antenna for autonomous wireless transmission of the detected fluid quality information, and a power subsystem coupled to the sensor package and the transmitter to provide access to continuous electrical power thereto.
