Septa Sense in an Open Source and Open Hardware IoT air quality sensor, based on an ESP32 running ESPHome. It features a rim of RGB-LEDs around the top which indicate the quality of the air. Measurements can be seen either on in the integrated display or over Home Assistant. The unit is powered with a USB-C plug on the backside.
- Temperature (0 - 50°C ± 0.5°C)
- Humidity (0 - 100% ± 4.5%)
- VOC (1 - 500 Index ± 5 Index)
- NOx (1 - 500 Index ± 10 Index)
- Particulate Matter (0 - 1000 μg/m³ ± 10%)
- CO2 (400 - 5000 ppm ± (40 ppm + 5%))
- Pressure (300 - 1250 hPa ± 0.5 hPa)
The mainboard is a custom PCB which holds the ESP32 chip, the BMP388 and SCD41 sensors and the RGB LEDs. The SEN55 sensor and the display are connected to it with a cable that is directly soldered to the board. It gets power via the USB-C plug over a cable with a JST XH connector that is mounted on the PCB.
