Python library for PMS7003 sensor

Dependencies

This software requires the pyserial library.

Installation: pip3 install -r requirements.txt or pip3 install pyserial.

Quick start

Clone this repository and copy the pms7003.py file into your project directory.
Import the module: from pms7003 import PMS7003
Create a new object: sensor = PMS7003('/dev/ttyUSB0')

Note: Depending on the number of connected devices and used operating system PMS7003 may be labeled differently e.g. ttyUSB1, COM0, COM1, etc.
Read data: sensor.read()

Output data format

The read() function returns a dictionary with the following set of keys:

pm010_std - PM1.0 concentration in μg/m3 (corrected to standard conditions)
pm025_std - PM2.5 concentration in μg/m3 (corrected to standard conditions)
pm100_std - PM10 concentration in μg/m3 (corrected to standard conditions)
pm010_atm - PM1.0 concentration in μg/m3 (under atmospheric conditions)
pm025_atm - PM2.5 concentration in μg/m3 (under atmospheric conditions)
pm100_atm - PM10 concentration in μg/m3 (under atmospheric conditions)
part003 - number of particles with diameter greater than 0.3 μm (in 100 ml of air)
part005 - number of particles with diameter greater than 0.5 μm (in 100 ml of air)
part010 - number of particles with diameter greater than 1.0 μm (in 100 ml of air)
part025 - number of particles with diameter greater than 2.5 μm (in 100 ml of air)
part050 - number of particles with diameter greater than 5.0 μm (in 100 ml of air)
part100 - number of particles with diameter greater than 10 μm (in 100 ml of air)

Note: The datasheet recommends to use data corrected to standard conditions in an industrial environment.

Note: Data labeled as under atmospheric conditions are not corrected due to atmospheric pressure. It means that even with a constant number of PM particles in the air the readout may vary if the atmospheric pressure changes.

Example 1

#!/usr/bin/env python3

from pms7003 import PMS7003


sensor = PMS7003('/dev/ttyUSB0')
output = sensor.read()
if output:
    print(output)
else:
    print("Read error!")

Example output:

{'pm010_std': 11, 'pm025_std': 11, 'pm100_std': 17, 'pm010_atm': 11, 'pm025_atm': 11, 'pm100_atm': 17, 'part003': 219, 'part005': 50, 'part010': 38, 'part025': 6, 'part050': 6, 'part100': 4}

Example 2

#!/usr/bin/env python3

from pms7003 import PMS7003


sensor = PMS7003('/dev/ttyUSB0')
output = sensor.read()
if output:
    print("PM1.0 concentration: %d ug/m3 (corrected to standard conditions)" % output["pm010_std"])
    print("PM2.5 concentration: %d ug/m3 (corrected to standard conditions)" % output["pm025_std"])
    print("PM10 concentration: %d ug/m3 (corrected to standard conditions)" % output["pm100_std"])
    print("PM1.0 concentration: %d ug/m3 (under atmospheric conditions)" % output["pm010_atm"])
    print("PM2.5 concentration: %d ug/m3 (under atmospheric conditions)" % output["pm025_atm"])
    print("PM10 concentration: %d ug/m3 (under atmospheric conditions)" % output["pm100_atm"])
    print("Number of particles with diameter greater than 0.3 um (in 100 ml of air): %d" % output["part003"])
    print("Number of particles with diameter greater than 0.5 um (in 100 ml of air): %d" % output["part005"])
    print("Number of particles with diameter greater than 1.0 um (in 100 ml of air): %d" % output["part010"])
    print("Number of particles with diameter greater than 2.5 um (in 100 ml of air): %d" % output["part025"])
    print("Number of particles with diameter greater than 5.0 um (in 100 ml of air): %d" % output["part050"])
    print("Number of particles with diameter greater than 10 um (in 100 ml of air): %d" % output["part100"])
else:
    print("Read error!")
