APPENDIX 2 – APOLLO COMPATIBLE SENSORS
Apollo is designed to be used with Skye 1 channel voltage output sensors. However, Apollo is also
configurable to other manufacturer sensors also. This section will outline all properties that the sensor should
have in order to function properly with Apollo.
In order to connect to Apollo, the sensor should have a Binder 5-plug (male). These are easily bought
if the sensor is wire-ended, although great care should be taken to ensure the wires are correctly fitted to the
plug, and correspond to the correct plug (see Section 6, and appropriate section in sensor manual).
The sensor should be single-channel, and give a voltage output of between 0 and 2V. The sensor
should also have a low output impedance. Lower output sensors can be used, but a higher degree of error
would occurr.
Compatible Sensors
The following is a list of Skye sensors that will work with Apollo. They are all voltage output amplified
sensors.
UV-A Sensor SKU 421
Monitors the amount of UV-A (315—400nm) light that reaches Earth. Excellent for
monitoring the spectrum of UV that is useful to vitamin D production in animals.
UV-B Sensor SKU430 Monitors the amount of UV-B (280—315nm) light that reaches Earth. Excellent for
measuring the spectrum of UV that has the highgest energy, and is harmful to
animals.
UV-I Sensor SKU440
Monitors the amount of UV light that falls within the pre-determined "Erythemal"
curve. This is the portion of the UV spectrum that causes human skin to burn, and is
ideal for monitoring the potential for harm to individuals that spend a lot of time in
the sun.
PAR Special SKL 2610 Monitors energy efficiency of PAR Quantum SKL 2620 plants and ecosystems.
Output proportional to levels of quanta (photons) in the ideal range 400—700nm
(near-square response).
PAR Quant. SKL 2620
Monitors energy efficiency of plants and ecosystems. Output proportional to
levels of quanta (photons) in the range 400—700nm
Lux SKL 2633 Monitoring light levels in buildings, galleries, work places, animal houses, etc.
Conforms well to the CIE photopic curve.
Energy SKL 2640 Measures energy in the visible band (400—700nm).
In many cases, we are able to offer an external amplifier to convert many of Skye's sensors' output to
a range ideal for Apollo, please e-mail for more information.
