The KDS-161 Sensor measures temperature at and around leaves of plants. It is an equilibrium sensor with very low thermal inertia and a thermal isolation feature that makes sure the sensor is open predominantly to one side. A magnetic rider arrangement allows the sensor to be easily attached to a moderate or large leaf. In smaller leaves, it can be installed somewhere in the neighborhood of suitably thick vegetation.
The physiological processes of plants depend on the temperature and many of these processes take place in the leaf. Hence, it is the leaf temperature that influences the rate of these processes. This sensor basically attempts establishment of thermal equilibrium within a close proximity of the space around leaves for greater accuracy. The sensor is used in agricultural & horticultural studies on plant growth, and is suitable for use in commercial greenhouses as well. It helps to save water and prevent loss of plants and enables direct measurement of plant hydration.
