Measure Photosynthetically Active Radiation
The SQ-521 is a digital sensor with SDI-12 communication
protocol. The sensor incorporates a rugged, self-cleaning sensor
housing design, anodized aluminum body with acrylic diffuser, and
high-quality cable terminating in a 3.5mm stereo jack for easy
connection to METER dataloggers. Typical applications include PPFD
measurement over plant canopies in outdoor environments,
greenhouses, and growth chambers, and reflected or under-canopy
(transmitted) PPFD measurements in the same environments.
