General Description
Formaldehyde Detector and Meter
The formaldehyde detector and meter has a measuring range of 0-3 mg per cubic meter with a response time of less than 30 seconds. The resolution is .01 mg per cubic meter, and the dimensions of the unit are 91.5 x 64.8 x 135 mm.
Function
The single gas detector and meter tests for the presence of formaldehyde (HCHO) in the indoor air using an internal electrochemical sensor. The display screen shows the HCHO level along with air temperature and humidity, and an alarm will sound if the presence of formaldehyde exceeds the acceptable limit. The measurement may be affected by a potential ethanol environment.
Applications
The single gas detector and meter is useful for any setting where the presence of formaldehyde is possible or suspected. The chemical is used for air quality in a number of industries, such as woodworking, carpeting, adhesives, and painting, making the detector ideal for homes, manufacturing facilities, offices, schools, and medical environments.

Concern about accuracy. Don't want to replace 4000 sq.ft. of chinese made flooring based on a false reading. PLease advise.
Hello Gene, thank you for your question. The meters accuracy has been tested and falls at +/-0.03 mg/m3 or +/-5%. We are aware of the issues with Chinese flooring. Our recommendation is not only to use this meter but also check with the manufacturing date of the flooring as the affected flooring was manufactured between 2012-2014.
Where can I find info on the acceptable limits of formaldyhyde?
