HOBO Photosynthetic Light (PAR) Smart Sensor
The PAR (photosynthetically active radiation) smart sensor is
designed to work with the HOBO Micro
Station data logger or HOBO Weather Station
data logger. The sensor measures the light range that effects
photosynthesis. The sensor has a plug-in modular connector that
allows it to be easily connected to the data logger.
Features:
-
Measurement Range: 0 to 2500 umol/m2/sec,
wavelengths of 400 to 700 nm
-
Operating Range: -40° to 75°C (-40° to +167°F)
-
Accuracy: ±5 umol/m2/sec or ±
5%, whichever is greater in sunlight; additional temperature-induced error ±0.75
umol/m2/sec/degree C from 25°C.
Cosine corrected 0 - 80 degrees, 360 degree rotation. Quantum efficiency curve shown below.
