Description

The Pasco Wireless Light Sensor (PS-3213) is the most adaptable and most cost-effective light sensor from PASCO with a variety of measurements for the science classroom that is unequaled. It provides live data for light level (lux), illuminance, UV Index, and color intensity. Connects directly to your devices via Bluetooth® and covers a wide range of applications.

This Wireless Light Sensor features two separate apertures - one for ambient measurements and one for directional light measurements. The ambient sensor measures illuminance, UVA, UVB, and UV Index. The directional light (spot aperture) measures the light level and has color detection with channels for the relative intensity of Red, Green, and Blue light, and the ability to sum them for the level of White light.

In addition, PAR and irradiance are available as calculated measurements in PASCO Capstone (version 1.8 or later) and SPARKvue (version 2.6 or later) software.

Note: The Wireless Light Sensor is not recommended for diffraction studies using the Pasco Optics Systems.

Full compatibility details are available, including compatibility information for older computing devices.

Features

  • Convenient Bluetooth wireless connectivity and long-lasting coin cell battery
  • Simplicity: just pair and go, no cables and adapters to manage
  • On board memory allows the sensor to function as an independent datalogger
  • Variable sampling rate for capturing small fast changes or experiments that run for hours, days, or weeks
  • No interface needed! Connects directly to your computers, Chromebooks, tablets and smartphones
