Air Quality Sensors
The Arlo Baby air sensors that measure air quality measure the level of VOCs
(Volatile Organic Compounds) in the room. VOCs are made up of hydrocarbons and
can easily become vapors or gases at room temperature. VOCs are released from
sources like burning fuel, solvents, paints, glues, air freshener, cleaning supplies, or
hair spray.
Arlo Baby can detect overall changes in air quality caused by gases such as
•
Iso-butane
•
Carbon monoxide
•
Hydrogen
•
Ethanol
•
Methane
Note:
While Arlo Baby's air quality sensor can detect carbon monoxide, it is not a
replacement for a dedicated carbon monoxide or smoke detector.
After you power Arlo Baby on for the first time, it takes about 24 hours for
the air quality sensor to finish calibrating and establishing a "Normal" baseline
measurement of your home's air quality. During this time, place the camera in a
well-ventilated area where it has access to fresh air.
If Arlo Baby suddenly reports an Abnormal or Very Abnormal reading, try to
discover the reason. The air quality sensor can react strongly to chemicals found in
cleaning products, hair spray, or cooking odors. Try opening your doors or windows
