MT14 Vaping Detection

[WV_Wells]

Has anyone come across the TVOC and/or PM 2.5 threshold values for vaping? I can't seem to find even ballpark numbers for this.

Hello.

I hope these are helpful.

Hi - Thanks for the reply. I have seen these documents and they do not answer my question. What is a good baseline value to detect vaping? Is it in the Poor range or Inadequate, and at what point?

Hello.

You can see a threshold here, is that not the point of view you're looking for?

No, it just gives a range of air quality. What value would vaping first be detected? I understand there are a lot of variables involved, but where is a good place to set your threshold, so someone is not reacting too often to other TVOCs, etc. Is at 3000, 10000, in between? For now, I have chosen 3000 for TVOC...

Ah, now it's not a vaping-specific measurement, so asking Meraki for the information you want would be difficult. One way to do this is to offer a “Make a wish” to create a separate display for vaping.

Currently, the display is not targeted to vaping, so it is not possible to limit the display (set a threshold) of information to just the vaping substances that you are looking for, and to specify which of these indicators The information about whether or not it was detected will not be made public beyond what is stated in the documentation. As user demand increases and development priority increases, it will be able to independently measure, threshold, and display in line with vaping metrics.
