Chlorophyll Sensor is a portable and non-destructive device, which is widely used for measuring chlorophyll content of leaves. It helps to optimize the timing and quantity of fertilizers used in order to improve crop yields and to reduce the risk of yield-limiting deficiencies or costly over fertilizing.

1. Chlorophyll Sensor: Details
Chlorophyll Sensor is a portable and non-destructive device, which is widely used for measuring
chlorophyll content of leaves. It helps to optimize the timing and quantity of fertilizers used in order to
improve crop yields and to reduce the risk of yield-limiting deficiencies or costly over fertilizing. This
device provides quick and easy measurement of the chlorophyll without damaging the leaf, due to
which it is demanded in various sectors. Chlorophyll content is one indicators of plant health as it is the
main component in the process of photosynthesis and its measurement is necessary for plant growth.
These sensors are common way to measure chlorophyll, the samples of which are collected to analyze
in laboratory. The analysis method is now easy, accurate and less time consuming because of this
sensor. Extensively demanded for multi-parameter and water quality monitoring applications, this
sensor provides highly accurate data. Additionally, this sensor is available in different specifications to
suit the demands of various applications.
Applications of Chlorophyll Sensor include:
Aquaculture:
 To optimize amount of phytoplankton in larval tanks
 The changes in quantity of phytoplankton when used as a food source
 Based on algae blooms, dissolved oxygen requirements can be managed
Lake, Pond, River and Reservoir Management:
 Used to monitor the growth of phytoplankton
 Helps in taking sample phytoplankton at different depths of lakes
 Algae control is can be monitored in ponds
 To observe the algae population
Clinical Research & Diagnostics:
 Accurate results with minimal sample preparation
 Used diagnostic measurement of blood glucose and/or lactate
Source, Raw & Drinking Water:
 Monitors toxic algae blooms
 With early detection toxic substances, it minimizes filtration system clogs
Ocean and Coastal Studies:
 The distribution of phytoplankton in marine systems can be investigated
 Algae on different layers of water can be checked
Food & Beverage:
 Measures a variety of key ingredients like sucrose, lactose and lactate

2.  Ideal for process monitoring
Advantages:
 Excellent turbidity rejection due to compact design and high quality optical filters
 Provides simple method to verify the sensor’s stability over time because of the availability
with solid secondary standards
 To correlate to a known chlorophyll concentration, secondary standard can be adjusted
Features:
Used in widely variety of applications as mentioned above. Here are some of the highlighting features
of Chlorophyll Meter:
 Trend graph display
 Data memory can be recalled and deleted
 Compact design with lightweight
 Quick and easy measurement
 Water-resistant
 Low power consumption
 Simple usage
