I have been monitoring the air quality inside one of our mining locations for the past 6 weeks with a rather simple setup using a Nova Fitness SDS 011 Sensor.
Little did I know when I started this experiment that I would have such trouble finding information about acceptable limits for crypto mining hardware.
We have Antminer S9 and Whatsminer M20S devices deployed there. I have not been able to find any information about safe values regarding particulate matter concentration. The specific miners are just examples. I am more interested which particulate matter limits would generally be considered
excellent,
good, or
critical for computing devices such as miners.
Thus far I have only been able to find information regarding human health, but I am unsure how this would translate to mining-hardware longevity.
Monitoring results
The sensor is able to detect particulate matter concentration PM2.5 and PM10.
In the past 6 weeks PM2.5 was at an average at 2.60µg/m³ while PM10 was at an average of 4.24µg/m³.
A graph and a table showing the full monitoring data can be viewed here:
