What Does FPM Stand For?
FPM stands for Fine Particulate Matter Diameter Less Than Or Equal To 2 5 Micrometers
FPM, or Fine Particulate Matter Diameter Less Than Or Equal To 2.5 Micrometers, refers to tiny airborne particles with a diameter of 2.5 micrometers or less. These particles can originate from various sources, including vehicle emissions, industrial processes, and natural events. Due to their small size, FPM can penetrate deep into the respiratory system, posing significant health risks such as cardiovascular and respiratory diseases. Monitoring and regulating FPM levels is essential for public health and environmental protection.
