Indoor horizontal PM10 card
Who it’s for
Facility managers, building managers, and indoor air quality specialists ask “what is the PM10 level in this space right now?” They need a compact, space-efficient card that fits into multi-room air quality dashboards without dominating the layout.
What it does
A sensor reporting pm10 = 25 µg/m³ displays the reading in a horizontal card whose label and value sit side by side, color-coded by severity: light green for Good (0–50 µg/m³), orange for Moderate (50–150 µg/m³), and red for High (above 150 µg/m³).
- Horizontal layout fits more rooms per row on a multi-zone air quality dashboard
- Live PM10 reading in µg/m³ with automatic color coding across three severity bands
- Shows one sensor’s reading per widget; tile multiple widgets to monitor all rooms at a glance
How to set up
Data keys
| Key | Role | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
pm10 | Main value | Timeseries | PM10 concentration in µg/m³; change the key name to match your device’s telemetry key |
The widget ships with a simulated function datasource key labeled PM10, so it draws random values until you point the datasource at a device and rename the key.
To point it at your own device: open the dashboard in edit mode, open the widget’s Datasources, pick the entity or entity alias, and replace the function key with the key your device reports.
Value ranges
| Range (µg/m³) | Level | Color |
|---|---|---|
| 0–50 | Good | Light Green |
| 50–150 | Moderate | Orange |
| 150+ | High | Red |
How to customize
- To change the severity thresholds — edit Icon color ranges and Value color ranges; set the same boundaries in both so the icon and the number always agree.
- To change the band colors — edit the color of each range in Icon color ranges and Value color ranges.
- To rename the units label — change the Units field in the widget settings if needed.
Tips
- Use the horizontal layout to fit more rooms per row when building a whole-building PM10 overview; pair with the standard card for rooms adjacent to construction or high-traffic areas where PM10 is more likely to spike.
- Placing horizontal cards for PM10 and PM2.5 on the same row lets facility staff quickly assess whether a particulate event is coarse dust (PM10 elevated, PM2.5 stable) or fine combustion particles (both elevated).
- For post-renovation handover inspections, a row of horizontal PM10 cards across all affected spaces provides a quick confirmation that dust levels have returned to Good before occupants return.
