Specification Sheet


Optimal logging solution:   Temperature Sensor Meter

Other Plant Temperature Sensors:         IRT4000 Canopy Temperature

THERM-MICRO Temperature Sensor

For the measurement of absolute temperature of the leaf at the surface.

The Leaf Temperature Sensor is a very small thermistor that can be adhered to a leaf surface. The absolute temperature of the leaf at the surface is measured.
The adherence and small size enable accurate measurement. The adherence means that the boundary layer is not disrupted.
The small size has almost no thermal mass resulting in measurements that have not influenced the temperature environment and which are very responsive to leaf temperature changes.
Rapid Time Response (200 milliseconds).
