10 AQY 1 specifications Parameters Power Dimensions Calibration Comms Software O 3, NO 2, PM 2.5, Temp, RH, dewpoint 12V DC plug pack, 24W 215H x 170W x 123D (mm) Factory calibration, field calibration optional WIFI, cellular Aeroqual Connect / Cloud For complete specifications please use the following link.

11 AQY technology Best in class O 3 sensor uses Aeroqual s gas sensitive semiconductor (GSS) to rival EPA-approved analysers for sensitivity, stability and selectivity NO 2 sensor combines patented algorithms with our proprietary O 3 sensor to eliminate cross interferences common to other sensor technologies Automatic baseline correction (ABC) modulates between sample and zero flow conditions to remove diurnal and seasonal temperature and humidity effects Light-scattering optical particle sensor combined with algorithms for humidity and temperature compensation 1 part-per-billion (ppb) detection of O 3 and NO 2 with R 2 correlation 0.98 and 0.82 respectively in head to head tests with U.S. EPA reference methods Measures and reports data in 1 minute intervals with user selectable averaging On-board PC can store 5+ years data, plus Wi-Fi, or 3G/4G connectivity

12 AQY vs other low cost monitors Proprietary ozone sensor technology that is best in class nearly all other ozone sensors on the market are cross sensitive to nitrogen dioxide Patented technique for removing ozone cross interference on the electrochemical NO 2 sensor (all NO 2 sensors on the market are cross sensitive to ozone) All measurement is done on the AQY device many other devices rely on data processing in the cloud before outputting a measurement More than 5 years data storage on the device, allowing for fail-safe back-up Aeroqual Cloud is used for data acquisition and display and remote diagnostics. Software is bundled with the instrument providing a complete product package. Product is backed by a decade of field experience deploying and supporting sensor-based instruments in a wide range of outdoor ambient applications

13 AQY software Aeroqual Connect and Cloud are easy to use and keep your data secure via 256-bit SSL encryption Manage data, instruments and diagnostics conveniently from anywhere in the world Set up your FTP, SMS/ alerts, calibration and service for single instruments or networks Plot and download data in realtime or historical sets by user selectable averaging periods Advanced charts features network view and lets you combine data sets and annotate for reports Use the wind and pollution rose charts in Aeroqual Plus to present professional AQ reports

14 AQY data traceability Factory calibration is NIST traceable to Standard Reference Materials (SRM) including certified calibration gas mixtures and NATA accredited calibration sources Optional field calibration is performed by co-locating the AQY with a FRM/FEM monitoring station and applying a gain or offset to the AQY in the configuration software

15 AQY support Purchase of an instrument from Aeroqual is the start of an ongoing relationship that connects you 24/7 wherever you are From our support centre in Auckland, New Zealand we can monitor instrument health, advise, diagnose, schedule service Aeroqual has an authorised service centre near you, currently serving our clients in more than 50 countries

16 Los Angeles AQY network 100 AQY devices deployed across Los Angeles in partnership with South Coast Air Quality Management District. First 25 units have been operational since Dec 2017, network complete by March A richer picture is emerging of PM 2.5, O 3, and NO 2 patterns in the region.

17 Colocation test: Los Angeles AQY units measuring O 3, NO 2 and PM 2.5 were installed at the South Coast Air Quality Management District s Rubidoux air monitoring station. AQY data compared to data from the station s USEPA Federal Reference Method (FRM) and Federal Equivalent Method (FEM) instruments over a 5 months
