LP-80 ACCUPAR ceptometer to measure PAR radiation and estimate LAI

Reference LP-80

Condition: New

Operating principle:
◆ There are several methods to measure radiation interception in plant covers and establish a relationship with respect to cover size, LAI and current Evapo-transpiration.

◆ The ACCUPAR LP-80 Ceptometer for PAR Radiation measurement and LAI estimation, quickly, simply and easily measures the fraction of photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) intercepted by vegetation.

◆ From the value of the fraction of PAR radiation intercepted, the ACCUPAR LP-80 Ceptometer estimates the Leaf Area Index (LAI).

Data sheet

The Sensor measures:	PAR Light

► The ACCUPAR LP-80 is precise, fast and reliable.

► The process of calculating the fraction of PAR radiation intercepted and the LAI is automatic, saving labor and time.

► LAI calculations are in real time, so you can check if the results reflect the reality of the trial.

► The ACCUPAR LP-80 Ceptometer for PAR radiation measurement and LAI estimation allows monitoring the growth of the plant cover, radiation interception.

► The ceptometer can record the measurement punctually or automatically for short periods of time.

► The equipment incorporates an external PAR sensor, which can be used to measure PAR radiation simultaneously above and below the deck.

► Data is collected, stored and can even be downloaded for further analysis. LP-80 incorporates 80 PAR radiation sensors mounted in parallel on a bar.

► It is a light device, weighing 0.5 kg.

Applications of the ACCUPAR LP-80 Ceptometer

► PAR radiation measurements and LAI estimation in vegetation covers.
► Characterization of the structural properties of roofs and use of PAR radiation in plant communities.
► Quantification of the fraction of radiation intercepted by the vegetation cover in water use efficiency studies.
► Competition studies between crops and weeds.
► Modeling of agricultural and forestry systems.
