Product Description

Apogee MQ-501 sensors are calibrated through side-by-side comparison to the mean of four transfer standard sensors under T5 cool white fluorescent lamps. The transfer standard sensors are calibrated through side-by-side comparison to the mean of at least four quantum sensors under T5 cool white fluorescent lamps traceable to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).

Accurate, Reliable Light Measurement

With full-spectrum detection of 389 to 692 nm and a high-sensitivity quantum (PAR) sensor, the MQ-501 provides quick and accurate PPFD readings essential for optimizing plant growth conditions. The meter's NIST-traceable calibration ensures data you can trust for both research and practical agricultural applications.


Built for Versatile, Rugged Use

Designed to withstand tough environments, the MQ-501 features a UV-stabilized polycarbonate sensor and IP65 protection. Its portable, lightweight design, and optional analog output make it ideal for field and laboratory work alike, across greenhouses, farms, and horticultural centers.


Effortless Operation and Maintenance

A simple 4-digit LCD interface presents results instantly, while minimal power consumption and a battery life of up to one year minimize maintenance. Cosine correction and NIST traceability guarantee ease of use without compromising on accuracy or compliance.

FAQ's of FULL-SPECTRUM QUANTUM METER (MQ-501):


Q: How do I operate the FULL-SPECTRUM QUANTUM METER (MQ-501) for light measurement?

A: Simply power on the device and position the sensor towards the light source you wish to measure, whether natural sunlight or artificial grow lights. Read the PPFD value directly on the 4-digit LCD display. No complex setup or programming is required.

Q: What kinds of environments can the MQ-501 be used in?

A: The MQ-501 is suitable for both indoor and outdoor environments, such as greenhouses, fields, horticultural research facilities, and other places where accurate plant light measurement is critical. Thanks to its IP65 rating and rugged construction, it performs reliably in various conditions.

Q: When should I recalibrate my MQ-501 quantum meter?

A: The MQ-501 features NIST-traceable calibration for high accuracy. For best performance, recalibration is recommended annually or if consistent deviations from expected values are observed, ensuring the reliability of your light measurements.

Q: Where can the MQ-501 be mounted or used during measurement?

A: This meter is designed primarily for handheld, portable use, but it can be placed on flat surfaces or temporarily mounted as needed using its lightweight, compact form. The detachable 2-meter cable increases flexibility for sensor placement in various research setups.

Q: What is the process for replacing the battery in the MQ-501?

A: To replace the battery, open the battery compartment on the meter body and insert a new 3V DC button cell, following the included instructions. With typical use, batteries generally last up to one year.

Q: What are the main benefits of using the MQ-501 for plant research?

A: The MQ-501 delivers accurate, real-time PPFD measurements with high sensitivity across the full plant light spectrum. Its rugged, lightweight build, ease of use, long battery life, and NIST-traceable calibration support reliable, consistent research outcomes in diverse applications.
