PMS5003 Particulate Matter Sensor with Cable (particulate sensor)
Description:
Monitor air pollution cheaply and accurately with this matchbox-sized particulate matter (PM) sensor from Plantower! It senses particulates of various sizes (PM1, PM2.5, PM10) from sources like smoke, dust, pollen, metal and organic particles, and more.
Pair this particulate matter sensor with our Enviro plus and build your own air quality monitoring station to contribute to citizen science. Just plug the cable into the sensor and then into the connector on the underside of Enviro plus, and away you go!
The sensor has a small fan that sucks air through the sensor and past a laser that can detect both the number (and hence concentration) and size of particles in the surrounding air.
Features- Plantower PMS5003 Particulate Matter (PM) Sensor (datasheet)
- Detects PM1, PM2.5, PM10 particulates
- 15cm Picoblade cable
- UART serial interface
- Python library
- Dimensions: 50x38x21mm
Our Python library for the PMS5003 sensor lets you read PM1, PM2.5, and PM10 in both standard and environmental units, and numbers of particles of various sizes: >0.3, >0.5, >1.0, >2.5, >5, and >10um.
Note that if you're using this sensor with Raspberry Pi, then you'll need to make a couple of changes to its configuration. Type sudo raspi-config in the terminal and then under "Interfacing options" and "Serial" disable the login shell and enable the serial port hardware. Edit your /boot/config.txt file and add the lines enable_uart=1 and dtoverlay=pi3-miniuart-bt to the bottom of the file.
Our Enviro plus installation script will do all of this configuration for you.
NotesThere's a blue protective film that covers the metal casing of the sensor, and you can peel this off before use.

- Working current: try to use more than 1A power supply
- Working temperature: -10 °C - 50 °C
- Mounting: M3 screw
- Detection distance: 1mm to 60 CM is adjustable, the closer the distance is, the more stable the performance is, and the white reflection distance is the furthest.
- Size: Central control board 4.4mm × 4.0mm × 12mm, small board 25mm × 12mm × 12mm
- Output interface: 6-wire interface (1234 is 4 signal output, is positive power, - is negative power(ground)
- Output signal: TTL level (can be directly connected to the I/O number of the single-chip microcomputer. When the infrared light reflected from the sensor is sensed, the red indicator light is on and the output level is low; when there is no infrared light, the indicator light is off and the output is level is high.)
Application:
- Smart car or robot hunt (including black and white lines), along the black line path, also known as tracing.
- The smart car avoids the cliff and prevents falling.
- Smart car avoids obstacles
Package includes:
1 x Main Board
4 x IR boards
