Milesight Sensor GS601
Milesight GS601 is a ceiling-mounted vape and smoke detector designed for smoke-free environments including schools, apartments, hotels, and stairwells. It uses laser scattering technology to detect e-cigarettes, traditional cigarettes, and marijuana with high accuracy, while also monitoring temperature, humidity, particulate matter (PM1.0/2.5/10), and TVOC. The sensor features anti-tamper protection, real-time alerts via buzzer (70 dB) and LED indicators, IP30 rating, and LoRaWAN Class C connectivity for comprehensive air quality monitoring and enforcement.
