PAR Lite is designed for outdoor measurement of photo synthetically active radiation (PAR) in natural daylight.

It has been specifically designed for:

• Agricultural meteorology
• Studies of crop growth

PAR Lite can be used under all weather conditions. The sensor measures the PAR received from the entire hemisphere. PAR Lite uses a specially designed optical filter to provide a spectral response between 400 and 700 nm.

PAR Lite uses a photodiode sensor, which creates a voltage output that is proportional to the incoming radiation.

PAR Lite is easy to use. It can be directly connected to voltmeter or data logger. By using the sensitivity a direct readout in µmol/m²·s can be derived. For each sensor the individual sensitivity is indicated on the instrument.
