Light measurement
Measure the Light Reaching Your Plants
Make lighting adjustments with a reading from the growing area. This full-spectrum quantum sensor measures PPFD and connects to a compatible Hydro-X controller, giving you a clearer basis for assessing light at plant level.

See how light varies across the canopy
Useful when setting up a new light position or comparing readings across a growing area. Take readings at a consistent plant height and record the position so later measurements can be compared meaningfully.
Measurements for a more informed lighting setup
A single reading describes one position. Checking several consistent positions helps you understand the variation across the area you are lighting.
Hydro-X integration
Send light readings to a compatible controller as part of the growing-room setup.
Lighting feedback
Compatible Hydro-X lighting connections can use a PPFD target to adjust output.
Mounting accessories included
The supplied half-inch post clamp helps position the sensor in your setup.
RJ12 cable and splitter
Connection accessories are supplied with the sensor for integration into the system.

Frequently asked questions
What does PPFD tell me?
It expresses how many photosynthetically active photons reach a unit area each second at the measuring position.
Does the sensor produce light?
No. It measures light; it is not a grow light.
Can it adjust my light by itself?
A compatible Hydro-X controller and lighting connection are required for output control.
How can I compare readings?
Keep the measuring height and position consistent. Record light settings with each reading so you can compare changes.
How should the sensor be cared for?
Keep its sensing surface clean and dry, away from spray and condensation.
