Sumario:The PurpleAir PA-II-SD is a low-cost particulate matter (PM2.5 and PM10) sensor that is currently available on the market. It is one of many such low-cost and commercially available particulate matter sensors which are being adopted by individuals and researchers worldwide. With growing use of these sensors, there is an interest in better understanding the performance and characteristics of these devices. Data was collected from twelve of these low-cost PurpleAir PA-II-SD sensors and two high fidelity Met One E-BAM PLUS instruments installed at a single location, on the campus of the American University of Beirut, in Beirut, Lebanon over a period of time from June 28, 2020 to September 30, 2020. The data was collected with the aim of assessing inter-sensor variability for the PurpleAir sensors and the sensor accuracy of the PurpleAir when compared to a high fidelity Met One E-BAM PLUS instrument.
