How can I connect a PS100 dust sensor?

[DCIM_Support]

Hello,

I would like to buy some Netbotz PS100 dust sensors but it is not really clear how to connect those to get the data.

On the documentation I found, it is said that I should use a sensor pod 120 to connect this sensor, but this sensor pod is not sold anymore.

The thing is that I need a test setup for 1 or 2 PS100 sensors and need to get the minimal required infrastructure to read the measurements.

I could not get any documentation about this sensor (sensibility, number of channels, size of the measured particles...), so it is difficult to justify the investment in a full Netbotz infrastructure without this documentation.

Basically what do I need to buy minimally? Would a PS100 alone be enough? A PS100 + sensor pod 155? A PS100 + rack monitor XXX? a PS100 + netpod XXX + rack monitor XXX?

Thank you for your answers.

Hello Julien,

Thanks for your post. To get this working you would need to invest in a Netbotz appliance from the 4xx or 5xx ranges and also purchase a NBPD0122 (although it does show on the website that this is discontinued, it is available for the foreseeable future, from a Reseller or by contacting the sales department in your local region). This is the only way this PS100 sensor will work with the V3 Netbotz appliances. 

information on the PS100 is below:

Also we do have another option for you. We can integrate 3rd party sensors to these appliances using the 0-5v and 4-20mA sensor options. If there is another particle sensor you wish to connect to the Netbotz appliance you can do this using the other sensor options. 

Regards,

Breda

Hi Julien

We have both items if you need them, I will check on Monday but I think the NBPD0122 will also work with the NeyBotz 450, 455 and 570.

Julien,

I just installed two of the PS100 sensors. The PS100 connects to an older sensor pod 120, which we purchased off an auction site. The sensor pod 120 then connects to our NB570. I am also using a USB to cat5 extender to connect the sensor pod 120 to the NB570 which is around 100 feet away.

It all works very well.
