Overview

LI190SB-L LI-COR Quantum Sensor

The LI190SB, manufactured by LI-COR, is a quantum sensor that accurately monitors Photosynthetic Photon Flux Density (PPFD) in both natural and artificial light. It connects directly to our data loggers and is ideal for growth chambers and greenhouses.

Key Advantages

Accurate, Versatile
Compatible with most Campbell dataloggers and wireless systems

Technical Description

The LI190SB measures solar radiation with a silicon photovoltaic detector mounted in a cosine-corrected head. A shunt resistor in the sensor’s cable converts the signal from microamps to millivolts, allowing the LI190SB to be measured directly by a Campbell Scientific data logger.

LI190SB accurately measures Photosynthetic Photon Flux Density (PPFD), which is the number of photons in the 400 to 700 nm waveband incident per unit time on a unit surface. Because PPFD describes photosynthetic activity, the LI190SB is ideal for growth chambers and greenhouses.

 

Benefits

  • Compatible with most Campbell Scientific data loggers
  • Ideal for growth chambers and greenhouses
  • Measures Photosynthetic Photon Flux Density (PPFD) in both natural and artificial light
  • Compatible with the CWS900-series interfaces, allowing it to be used in a wireless sensor network
