SenseCAP PAR Probe S-PAR-02B — Aviation Connector
SenseCAP PAR Probe S-PAR-02B — Aviation Connector is an IoT Sensor. Connectivity includes RS485, Modbus RTU. Suitable for Environmental measurements and monitoring in Outdoor deployments.
Product Overview
It measures real-time photosynthetically active radiation across the radiation range from 400 to 700 nm. It contains a Silicon photodetector and generates a voltage signal directly proportional to the PAR under the light source, making it widely applicable in industrial environmental sensing scenarios.
We have three versions Industrial PAR Sensor. The main difference is the cable connector. Please choose the version that best suits your needs:
(1)This one is with a waterproof aviation connector. It is compatible with SenseCAP Sensor Hub 4G Data Logger, which can collect various sensor data simutaneously and send them via 3G/4G LTE.
(2)Another version is with hook-up wires,supporting MODBUS-RTU RS485 protocol, It is compatible with SenseCAP LoRaWAN® Data Logger to easily connect with the LoRaWAN® network, enjoying the benefits of low-power and long-range communication.
(3)Another version supports 2.5V analog voltage output.

Description
Sunlight has a tremendous impact on the lifecycle of almost all creatures on this planet. For plants as an example, light is a key factor in photosynthesis reaction that matters to their survival. Different species of plants, and even different growth stages of the same species would require different degrees of light duration, exposure, strength, and radiation range. Sensors are thus a useful tool to help effectively control essential parameters, like photosynthetically active radiation (PAR), contributing to the success of research or agricultural activities.
The industrial-grade PAR sensor monitors the PAR in environments with natural light sources across a radiation range from 400 to 700 nm and provides important parameters for researchers and farmers. When there’s light in, the sensor generates a voltage signal directly proportional to the PAR under the light source. You can obtain the measurement value in a unit of μmol/m2•s. The instrument supports the MODBUS-RTU RS485 protocol, you also can directly connect this PAR sensor with RS485 data loggers or digital voltmeters to create monitoring systems that meet your own demand.
This PAR sensor is robust with an IP66 enclosure and is able to withstand a wide range of temperatures from -30°C to 75°C, unlocking applications in harsh outdoor environments to support photosynthesis, solar, and ecological research, as well as the sensing in smart agriculture, greenhouse farming, tourism, meteorology, etc.
also provides the SenseCAP Portal and SenseCAP Mate to help users better manage and check data remotely.

Policies & Guidelines
Warranty, shipping, and purchasing information
- All prices are stated in US dollars (USD), unless otherwise indicated.
- Full payment must be received and confirmed before an order is prepared or dispatched.
- Payment may be made by bank transfer, Bitcoin, or USDT. The payment methods available for each order are displayed at checkout.
- Shipping charges are shown separately at checkout. The quoted shipping charge includes applicable import duties, taxes, and customs-clearance charges for the delivery destination.
- An electronic invoice is made available in the Customer’s account after payment confirmation. An official sales invoice also accompanies the shipment.
- Orders may be cancelled for a full refund before order preparation begins. Once preparation has begun, cancellation is subject to the order’s processing status.
- A Customer wishing to return a non-defective product must request the return within 30 days of delivery. The product must be returned in good condition with its official sales invoice.
- For a non-defective return, the Customer is responsible for return shipping. The refund covers the product price only; the original shipping charge is not refundable.
- Refunds for returned products are initiated after the returned goods have been received and their condition verified. Approved refunds are initiated within seven business days and returned through the original payment method.
- The refundable amount is based on the USD value paid for the product. Refunds for Bitcoin or USDT payments are calculated against that USD amount, rather than a fixed quantity of cryptocurrency. The time required for funds to reach the Customer depends on the payment method and processing provider.
- All devices, sensors, and accessories purchased directly from SenseCAP are covered by a one-year warranty from the date of delivery.
- Warranty eligibility is verified against the original sales record and, where available, the product serial number. For products without a serial number, the order details and official sales invoice are used to identify the purchase.
- The warranty covers manufacturing defects and internal hardware failures arising under normal use and within the product’s specified operating conditions.
- Products that arrive damaged or non-operational should be reported to SenseCAP so that the appropriate shipping or warranty procedure can be arranged.
