Description
Measure the Light That Actually Reaches Your Canopy
The TrolMaster MBS-PAR is a full-spectrum quantum PAR sensor that reads PPFD (photosynthetic photon flux density) at canopy height and feeds it to a Hydro-X controller, which then adjusts compatible lighting automatically to hold a target level. Instead of setting a dimmer percentage and hoping, growers get a live measurement of the usable light hitting the plants across LED, HID and other full-spectrum sources.
What's Included
- 1 x Full Spectrum Quantum Sensor (MBS-PAR)
- 1 x ½″ post clamp
- 1 x 4ft RJ12 cable
- 1 x RJ12 T-splitter
- 2 x ½″ end caps
Key Benefits
- Full-spectrum PPFD measurement with an improved spectral response tuned for modern LED lighting
- Hydro-X integration automatically raises or lowers output to hold your set PPFD target
- Accurate across LED, HID and other sources, so mixed rooms read reliably
- Holds consistent intensity across tents and rooms for steadier growth stage to stage
- Plug-and-play RJ12 install with post-clamp canopy mounting
Ending the Guesswork of Under- and Over-Lighting
Incorrect light intensity is one of the most common indoor growing faults: too little slows veg, too much stresses plants and wastes energy in flower. The MBS-PAR measures the exact PPFD at the canopy, and with the Hydro-X system the controller adjusts output to keep plants in their ideal range for each stage, improving photosynthesis, nutrient uptake and yield.
How to Use
- Mount the sensor at canopy height using the supplied post clamp.
- Connect it to the Hydro-X controller with the RJ12 cable.
- Use the RJ12 T-splitter if other modules or sensors share the network.
- Set your target PPFD in the Hydro-X settings.
- Connect compatible lighting to the Hydro-X control network.
- The controller then adjusts output automatically to hold the selected PPFD.
