This advanced sensor, released in 2021, captures ePAR beyond the traditional 400-700 nm range, reflecting new research on photosynthetic activity. It connects via USB to Windows or MacOS X computers for real-time point measurements, graphing, and PPFD data logging using the included software.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SQ-616 also functions as a standalone ePAR datalogger when connected to standard 5V DC USB power. Its internal sensor memory can store 10,000 user-defined periodic measurements, downloadable as CSV files for analysis. With a spectral range of 400 to 750 nm ± 5 nm and a resolution of 0.1 µmol m⁻² s⁻¹, it provides detailed light spectrum data for optimal plant growth. The sensor features a robust anodized aluminum body with an acrylic diffuser and is IP68 rated, allowing submersion up to 30 meters, making it suitable for various environmental monitoring applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeasures ePAR from 400 to 750 nm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUSB output for PC connection (Windows\/MacOS)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStandalone datalogger function with 10,000 measurement capacity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eResolution: 0.1 µmol m⁻² s⁻¹\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpectral range: 400-750 nm ± 5 nm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirectional (cosine) response: ± 2 % at 45˚, ± 5 % at 75˚\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIP68 rated, submersible up to 30 m\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions: Diameter 30.5 mm, height 37 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCable: USB 4.5 m\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight (with 5 m cable): 140 g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarranty: 4 years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufactured in USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eApogee Instruments SQ-616 — measures extended ePAR from 400-750 nm.
