    What’s Inside the AirGradient ONE?


    Here’s a quick overview of the main parts inside the device:

    See this assembly video, for more insight: Assembling the AirGradient ONE Kit

    1. Open ONE Mainboard

    The mainboard includes:

    • An ESP32-C3-MINI microcontroller that handles processing, Wi-Fi connectivity, and data transmission
    • Connectors and pin sockets for all sensor modules
    • Power management and onboard circuitry

    This board coordinates sensor readings and sends data to the AirGradient dashboard or your own integrations.

    2. RGB LED Bar

    The pre-mounted 11 RGB LEDs display air quality/device status. It can be switched off.

    3. 1.3" OLED Display (128x64px)

    The pre-mounted 1.3" OLED display with 128x64px resolution displays real-time air quality measurements and device status. It can be switched off.

    4. Plantower PMS5003 PM Sensor

    This pre-mounted sensor measures:

    • PM1
    • PM2.5
    • PM10

    5. SenseAir S8 / S88 CO₂ Sensor Module

    This NDIR (Non-Dispersive Infrared) sensor measures carbon dioxide (CO₂) levels.

    6. SGP41 TVOC / NOx Sensor Module

    This sensor measures:

    • TVOC (Total Volatile Organic Compounds)
    • NOx (Nitrogen Oxides index)

    7. SHT40 Temperature & Humidity Sensor Module

    This sensor measures:

    • Temperature
    • Relative humidity

    Modular by Design

    One of the key advantages of the AirGradient ONE is its modular design.

    This means:

    • Sensors can be replaced individually if needed
    • Maintenance is easier
    • Future upgrades are simpler

    This open and repairable approach helps extend the life of the monitor and supports long-term reliability.
