MQ-610: 400-750 nm ePAR Meter
FOR SCIENTISTS & SERIOUS GROWERS - Designed by the Apogee Instruments’ engineering team under the direction of world-renowned crop physiologist, Bruce Bugbee, PhD, the MQ-610 ePAR meter is the first in its class among leading scientists and serious growers for accurately measuring the new extended photosynthetically active radiation (ePAR) from 400 to 750 nm for all light sources. NEW ePAR RANGE - Laboratory-grade measurement of the newly defined 400-750 nm ePAR has been found to be photosynthetically active beyond the traditional 400-700 nm (PAR). Much of the transformative work to define the ePAR range was conducted by Dr. Shuyang Zhen and Dr. Bruce Bugbee. The MQ-610 can accurately measure far-red photons (700-750 nm), found in many next-generation LED fixtures, the sun, and other light sources, which cannot be measured by traditional PAR meters. QUALITY ePAR METER - Unlike commonly available LUX or footcandle meters used for measuring light for human vision, our meters featur
