Product Info
Labmate Sap Flow Meter LMSFM-A100
Product Overview
The Labmate Sap Flow Meter LMSFM-A100 is a professional-grade environmental monitoring tool designed for the continuous measurement of tree water flow. It utilizes the Thermal Dissipation Probe (TDP) method, which calculates sap flow by detecting temperature differences between a heated and an unheated stainless-steel probe. This single-channel system is optimized for durability and field longevity, making it an essential instrument for plant physiologists, foresters, and ecosystem researchers.
