Summary
Especially during the coronavirus pandemic, we have learned to pay closer attention to environmental data, such as specific indoor air quality. Condition monitoring is now happening in schools and universities and those educational institutions spend considerable sums of money to ensure the safety of their students. In the industrial environment, these solutions – of which there are several on the market today – are capable of analyzing potential faults, finding the causes of problems, and offer the chance to ensure the maximum service life of a machine. In the smart office and comparable areas of application, Condition Monitoring is the invisible companion for the smooth running of everyday activities –even when no airborne viruses are endangering health. Numerous studies, produced before 2020, show just how damaging poor indoor air quality can be for the concentration of office workers and students.
