The Metriful MS430 is a low-power, smart sensor cluster for indoor environment monitoring. It's compatible with 1000s of host systems, including Arduino and Raspberry Pi.

Measure more than 10 variables including air quality, pressure, light and sound levels. The on-board processor handles sensor management and analysis, helping you build advanced applications faster!

Monitor and understand your environment at home, work or school. Our fully-functional demo software shows you how to view and save the data, send it to the IoT cloud, and more.

Collapsible content

Measurements available

TemperatureEssential for indoor comfort
HumidityImportant for comfort and mould growth risk
Air pressureCorrelates with changes in the weather
Gas sensor resistanceResponds to volatile organic chemical (VOC) impurities in the air
Air quality indexCombines gas, temperature and humidity into an air quality rating
A-weighted sound pressureSound pressure level (SPL) scaled according to human hearing
Frequency band SPL (x6)Sound pressure level (SPL) for 6 frequency bands, from “low” to “high” pitch
Peak sound amplitudeThe size of sudden impulsive sounds
Light illuminanceTotal brightness, scaled according to human vision
White light levelTotal brightness across all measured wavelengths

Features

  • Choose from 3 header pin versions: pre-soldered (straight/right-angle), or unsoldered
  • Miniature size: just 37.5 x 23.4 x 3.1 mm (without pins)
  • Contains BME680, VEML6030 and SPH0645LM4H sensors
  • Suitable for 3.3 V and 5.0 V systems
  • I2C interface with selectable address
  • Two interrupt outputs for fast host system alerts

Our demo code on GitHub shows you how to:

  • Host your own local webpage with interactive graphs and CSV file download
  • Interface to IFTTT.com and receive free email alerts based on your environment data
  • Connect to Home Assistant, the popular open source home automation system
  • Send data to free IoT cloud accounts and view from any internet connected device

Operating modes

The MS430 has two modes of operation, giving you flexibility and convenience:

  • Standby mode: trigger single measurements when you want them.
  • Cycle mode: sensor measurements repeat automatically. You can choose from 3, 100, or 300 seconds repeat interval.

Please note

  • This product requires a host system (e.g. Arduino or Raspberry Pi) and connecting wires, which are not included.
  • Using the MS430 inside, or on top, of a Raspberry Pi case will increase the temperature reading, due to the heat output from the Pi.
  • The gas sensor requires an initial period of "burn-in", and the air quality index requires an initial self-calibration period. Please see instructions for further details.
  • The MS430 also provides an interface and data processing for the Nova SDS011 particle sensor, but this sensor is not included with the MS430 (can be purchased separately).
