KEMPER AIRWATCH LTE UNIT WITH 6 MONTHS KEMPER SUBSCRIPTION
KEMPER AirWatch Air Quality Monitor & 1 Year Kemper Cloud Subscription
The Kemper AirWatch is a continuous air quality monitor that measures fine dust and fume concentration in real time using a laser-based optical sensor, giving workshops a live, documented view of exposure levels across a production hall, workstation or warehouse — with a full 12 months of cloud reporting included.
Where most fume monitoring is a spot-check exercise, AirWatch runs continuously. It reads particle count and size distribution as PM2.5 and PM10, and shows the result instantly on its own built-in LED display — green, yellow or red — so anyone on the shop floor can see at a glance whether air quality is inside your set limits. Every reading is also logged over mobile network to the Kemper Cloud, where it can be reviewed from a PC, tablet or phone, with adjustable alarm thresholds and full historical data for compliance reporting.
AirWatch doesn't just measure — it can act. Connected to Kemper's extraction and room ventilation systems, it drives need-based control, ramping extraction up or down based on actual measured air quality rather than running systems on a fixed timer. That means better protection when fume levels spike, and lower running costs when they don't.
Why it matters under WES-to-WEL
With Australia's shift from Workplace Exposure Standards to Workplace Exposure Limits taking effect from 1 December 2026, and AS/NZS ISO 21904 already setting the benchmark for LEV system performance, documented, continuous exposure monitoring is moving from best-practice to expected practice. A wall-mounted or portable air monitor with logged, timestamped data is the difference between telling an auditor your extraction works and being able to show them.
AirWatch fits that shift directly — it doesn't just capture a fume reading, it retains the record, which is exactly what's needed to demonstrate ongoing compliance rather than a one-off test result.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the Kemper AirWatch actually measure? It measures airborne fine dust and fume particle concentration using an optical laser sensor, reporting both particle count and size distribution as PM2.5 and PM10 — the same particle size categories used in workplace exposure standards.
How do I know if air quality is within limits without logging into the app? AirWatch has a built-in illuminated LED indicator on the unit itself that shows green, yellow or red based on your set thresholds, so air quality status is visible at a glance on the shop floor without needing a screen.
Does AirWatch require an ongoing subscription? The Kemper Cloud service is included free for the first 12 months from purchase. After that, continued cloud access and remote reporting requires an active subscription — worth confirming renewal pricing with QWS at time of order.
Can AirWatch automatically control our extraction system, or does it just alert us? Both. On its own it logs and alarms on air quality data. Connected to compatible Kemper ventilation and extraction equipment, it can also drive those systems automatically based on real-time readings — increasing extraction when levels rise and easing off when they don't, rather than running extraction on a fixed cycle regardless of actual conditions.
Is this suitable for demonstrating compliance under the new WES-to-WEL limits? AirWatch is built for exactly this — continuous, timestamped, cloud-stored monitoring data is what auditors and safety officers need to demonstrate an extraction system is performing, not just installed. It complements (rather than replaces) the LEV system itself, which should already be specified and verified to AS/NZS ISO 21904.
