DEPLOYMENT AND INSTALLATION
Apogee MQX series quantum meters are designed for spot-check measurements, and calculation of daily light
integral (DLI; total number of photons incident on a planar surface over the course of a day) through the built-in
logging feature. To accurately measure PFFD incident on a horizontal surface, the sensor must be level. The AL-100
accessory leveling plate is recommended for use with the MQ-210X to ensure the sensor is level when attached to
a cross-arm. The bubble-level in the plate makes leveling simple and accurate.
The AM-310 Sensor Wand accessory incorporates a mounting fixture at the end of an extendable telescopic wand
(up to 33 inches/84 cm). The wand is not suited for wet environments; however, it is excellent for greenhouses and
growth chambers. Its ability to retract to a smaller size also makes it ideal for travel use.
The AM-320 Saltwater Submersible Sensor Wand accessory incorporates a mounting fixture at the end of a 40 inch
segmented fiberglass wand and is well-suited for saltwater use. The wand allows the user to place the sensor in
hard to reach areas such as aquariums.
