Quantum Sensors and Meters
Quantum Sensors and meters measure Photosynthetic Photon
Flux (PPF) in µmol m-2 s-1.
USE UNDER DIFFERENT LIGHT SOURCES
This table shows the sensor's output under varying light sources. The sensor's spectral response, the spectral output of electric lamps, and these errors are all constant -- allowing the user to calculate the correct output for each light source.
For example, if the MQ-100 set to electric lamps is used in sunlight, and a value of:
1,500 µmol m-2 s-1 is given,
the actual light is 1,665 µmol m-2 s-1.
In a controlled environment with multiple lamp types (such as a mixture of MH and HPS), a more precise percent error can be determined when the amount (%) of each type of light present is known.
