Air et ventilation des salles de classe

De l’air frais dans chaque classe, mesuré.

Les salles de classe bondées deviennent vite étouffantes : le dioxyde de carbone monte, l’attention baisse et les infections se propagent plus facilement. Des capteurs dans chaque salle indiquent quand ouvrir les fenêtres ou lancer la ventilation, aident les équipes techniques à corriger les salles jamais renouvelées et donnent aux écoles la preuve de l’air que respirent leurs élèves.

  1. Éducation · Air et ventilation des salles de classe

    Stuffy rooms, tired students

    Crowded classrooms get stuffy fast. Carbon dioxide rises, attention falls and infections spread more easily, and many ventilation systems do not work as designed. Parents increasingly ask about the air their children breathe, and schools have little evidence to answer with.

  2. Ce qui est mesuré

    Every room’s air

    A sensor at breathing height in every classroom measures carbon dioxide, temperature, humidity and particles, and an outdoor sensor measures the particles that come in when windows open, so each room has its own record. Every instrument keeps its calibration and position with the site record.

    Instruments
    Room air sensors · Outdoor particle sensor
  3. Le nœud de base

    A simple signal

    The node turns each room’s readings into a simple signal for teachers, computes ventilation performance from how fast carbon dioxide falls after lessons, flags rooms that never clear and advises when outdoor pollution means windows should stay shut. Every value is signed at the node before it leaves.

  4. Radio et liaisons

    No cables in classrooms

    Room sensors reach one gateway per school over a low-power link, with no cabling and years of battery life. The node joins the school network to reach facility teams, dashboards and, where they exist, ventilation controls. When one path fails, the other carries the data.

    LoRaWAN · Wi-Fi
  5. Comment ça marche

    From a stuffy room to a fixed fan

    A science room shows carbon dioxide climbing in every lesson and never clearing between them. The node flags it; facilities find a failed ventilation fan and replace it. The next week the room clears between lessons and teachers see the signal turn green.

  6. De la commande à l’exploitation · Commande

    Scope with the facilities team

    The scope reads the district’s schools, room counts, ventilation types and complaints. Nexus Observatory Inc. returns the sensor plan, displays for teachers, facility reports and a price per room and per year. The scope is agreed before any site work begins.

  7. De la commande à l’exploitation · Relevé

    Survey rooms and systems

    Crews survey representative rooms with facility staff: sensor positions away from windows and doors, ventilation systems and their controls, gateway coverage and network access. Findings shape the kit for each site before anything is built. Every finding is kept with the site record for the crews who follow.

  8. De la commande à l’exploitation · Autorisations

    School approval

    The school and district approve installation, and staff and parents are told what is measured and how displays work. No personal data is collected. Every approval is kept with the school record. No crew goes to site before its approvals are in place.

  9. De la commande à l’exploitation · Fabrication

    Build and calibrate

    Sensors are calibrated, radios paired, the gateway and node configured with room names and enrolled with their identities. Each kit is labelled by room. Nothing ships until the whole kit has passed its tests together. Test results travel with the kit to the site.

  10. De la commande à l’exploitation · Installation

    Install room by room

    Crews mount sensors at breathing height in every room, fit simple displays for teachers, install the gateway and node and connect to the school network. Every room is recorded. Crews follow the site safety plan throughout the work. The site record is updated before the crew leaves.

  11. De la commande à l’exploitation · Mise en service

    Commission over a week

    Chaque nœud prouve son identité. Readings are checked against a reference, ventilation performance is measured in each room through a normal week, and rooms that never clear are reported to facilities. Acceptance is recorded with the owner before handover. Results are signed and kept with the site record.

  12. De la commande à l’exploitation · Exploitation

    Ventilate when needed

    Teachers see a simple signal to open windows or boost ventilation; facility teams see rooms that never clear and fix them; parents and inspectors see evidence of good air. Every alert and action is kept on the record. Reports for owners and funders come from the same record.

  13. De la commande à l’exploitation · Maintenance

    Keep sensors honest

    Sensors are checked against a reference on the agreed plan, batteries replaced when low, displays maintained and software updated in rings. Annual reports show the air in every room. Maintenance history stays with each site for its whole life. Spares and procedures travel with the crews.

    For teachers, facilities and parents

    Teachers receive room air signals; facility teams receive ventilation performance reports; parents, inspectors and authorities receive indoor air records; maintenance planners receive the rooms needing repair, each tied to room and time. Every product can be traced back to its readings.

  15. Preuves

    Standards for indoor air

    Indoor parameters follow the European indoor environment standard and the ventilation standard, carbon dioxide is used as an indicator as health guidance recommends, and particles are set against the air quality guidelines. Every reading is kept for each room. The record is kept for as long as the duty lasts.

01Le lieu et ses dangers

Où il fonctionne, et ce qui peut mal tourner.

Operating contextIndoor environmental parameters for ventilation, comfort and air quality are set in the European standard and in the ventilation standard used in many countries, and health guidance on indoor ventilation uses carbon dioxide as an indicator. Schools are judged by parents and inspectors on the air in their rooms.

Dangers

  • Carbon dioxide building up in crowded rooms
  • Rooms too hot or too cold
  • Ventilation systems that do not work as designed
  • Outdoor pollution entering through open windows
  • No evidence when parents ask about air quality
