Milesight Sensor AM308(L)

Milesight AM308 and AM308L are indoor ambience monitoring sensors that measure eight parameters: temperature, humidity, motion (PIR), light, CO₂, TVOC, barometric pressure, PM2.5, and PM10. The AM308 features a 4.2" E-Ink screen for real-time display, while the AM308L offers longer battery life without the display. Both transmit data via LoRaWAN Class A technology for long-range, low-power communication.


info

AM307 – monitors basic indoor air quality.
AM308 – same as AM307 plus particle measurement (PM2.5/PM10).
AM319 – the most advanced version with additional HCHO or O₃ measurement; must be powered by USB (no batteries).
