POM
Personal Ozone Monitor

The Personal Ozone Monitor (POM) is an in situ handheld ozone monitor manufactured by 2B Technologies. POM employs ultraviolet (UV) absorption at 254 nm to measure ozone levels. It can detect ozone concentrations up to 10 ppm with a resolution of 0.1 ppb. The device operates at sampling frequencies of 0.1 Hz and 0.5 Hz in fast mode. While primarily used for ground-based applications, POM has also been deployed on uncrewed aerial systems (UAS).
