Overview

Lux meters measure light for human eyes; plants care about photosynthetically active radiation (PAR). This quantum sensor measures PPFD in µmol/m²/s, and Famo adds it up into the daily light integral (DLI) each zone receives.

Ideal for: LED-lit vertical farms, greenhouses with supplemental lighting and research rooms.

Sourced for you: built by our manufacturing partners and delivered to the specification we agree with you. Packaging, quantities and options are confirmed in the contract, and our team supports you with the Famo software and after-sales questions.

Key features

  • Measures PPFD (400–700 nm)
