Description

This all-purpose, high precision, quick response Light Sensor is designed to measure three ranges of light, 0 to 600 lx, 0 to 6 klx and 0 to 150 klx making it ideal for both indoor and outdoor light measurements.

Common usage

Indoors, this sensor can be used in experiments that examine bulb intensities, light absorbance, photosynthesis and more. Outdoors, experiments measuring solar radiation can be conducted, among others.

Specifications

• Range:
• 0 to 600 lx;
• 0 to 6,000 lx;
• 0 to 150 klx

• For: 0 to 6000 lx: 1.5 lx
• For: 0 to 150 klx: 37 lx
• Default Sample Rate: 10 samples per second
• Spectral Response: Visible light

Description

The Pressure Sensor (150-1,150 mbar) is an absolute gas pressure sensor that measures applied external pressure relative to zero pressure reference sealed inside the sensor.  

Common usage

The Pressure Sensor can be used as an altimeter (measuring your current height) and as a barometer for various meteorological measurements.  Typical uses include investigating the evaporation of water from terrestrial plants – transpiration, measuring the photosynthesis rate in water plants, measuring the respiration rate of germinating seeds, investigating the effect of light on photosynthesis rate and as well as examining the Ideal Gas Law.

Specifications

• Range: 150 to 1,150 mbar
• Accuracy: ±1 % over entire range
• Resolution (12-bit): 0.25 mbar
• Default Sample Rate: 10 samples per second
• Response Time (for 90% change in reading): 1 ms
• Operating Temperature: 0 to 85 °C

Description

Fourier’s stainless steel Temperature Sensor is both simple and durable.  It is covered with a protective isolating material, making it significantly stronger than a traditional glass thermometer.  The sensor connects directly to the data logger using a standard mini-din cable.

Common usage

With a range of -25 °C to 110 °C, it can be used for experiments in Chemistry, Physics, Biology, Earth Science, and Environmental Science.  It is particularly well suited for conduction water and other chemical solution temperature measurements.

• 263 to 383.15 K

Range for MultiLogPRO:

• -25 to 110 °C
• -13 to 230 °F

• Accuracy: ±2 % over entire range
• Resolution (12-bit): 0.03 °C
• Default Sample Rate: 10 samples per second
• Response Time (for 90% change in reading):
• 20 seconds in liquid
• 40 to 60 seconds in air
• Sensing Element: Located inside the sensor’s tip
