Description

Importance of PAR (Photosynthetically Active Radiation) Flux Density:The measurement of PAR flux density is essential for optimizing plant growth in greenhouses and indoor farms, providing critical data about the availability of light energy for photosynthesis. Monitoring PAR levels enables growers to adjust lighting intensity, duration, and spectrum to optimize plant growth and yield.

Feature-full Detachable Full Spectrum PAR Meter:The Sper Detachable Full Spectrum PAR Meter features a remote sensor that can be used handheld or with a 36-inch extension/selfie stick. The remote sensor can also be mounted on a tripod. This instrument includes a meter, sensor, cables, extension stick, instructions, plastic case, and 2 AAA batteries.

Accurate PAR Measurement:The meter provides stable measurement of photosynthetically active radiation (PAR), or Photosynthetic Photon Flux Density (PPFD), and high accuracy PAR measurement for 400 to 700nm under all light sources, including LEDs.

Applications: This tool is versatile and can be used in different fields. In horticulture, it helps in maintaining appropriate PAR levels for optimal plant growth and development. It can be used in plant physiology research to study the effects of different lighting conditions on photosynthesis and growth. Environmental scientists can use it to measure PAR flux density in natural ecosystems and to study the impact of environmental factors on plant growth and productivity. In education, it serves as a teaching tool to demonstrate the importance of light in plant growth and to provide hands-on experience in measuring PAR levels.

Specifications: The spectral range of the meter is 400±10nm to 700±10nm with a measurement range of 0 to 4000 micromoles per square meter per second. Its accuracy is ±5 or ±5% of reading, whichever is greater. It has an LCD update time of 0.5 seconds and a field view of 180 degrees. The meter’s dimensions are 115(L)x60(W)x24(H)mm. The package includes a meter, PAR sensor, straight cable, coiled cable, selfie stick, batteries, manual, and a hard carry case. The weight of the meter is around 115g without the battery and cable.
