{"product_id":"trolmaster-full-spectrum-quantum-sensor","title":"TrolMaster Full Spectrum Quantum Sensor","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe TrolMaster MBS-PAR is a full-spectrum quantum sensor designed for closed-loop PPFD control with Hydro-X, Hydro-X Plus, and Hydro-X Pro systems. It measures photosynthetically active radiation across a 389–692 nm spectral range and delivers real-time PPFD readings in µmol\/m²\/s directly to the controller. This allows the Hydro-X system to automatically increase or decrease connected lighting output to maintain a programmed canopy-level light target, rather than relying only on fixed dimming percentages or schedules.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e• SKU: MBS-PAR\u003cbr\u003e\n• Manufacturer: TrolMaster\u003cbr\u003e\n• Sensor Type: Full Spectrum Quantum \/ PPFD Sensor\u003cbr\u003e\n• Spectral Range: 389–692 nm ±5 nm\u003cbr\u003e\n• Output Unit: µmol\/m²\/s (PPFD)\u003cbr\u003e\n• Connector: RJ12, standard 6-pin\u003cbr\u003e\n• Compatible Controllers: Hydro-X HCS-1, Hydro-X Plus HCS-3, Hydro-X Pro HCS-2\u003cbr\u003e\n• Sensors per Zone: 1 MBS-PAR sensor per controller zone\u003cbr\u003e\n• Control Function: Closed-loop automatic lighting adjustment based on measured PPFD\u003cbr\u003e\n• Lighting Compatibility: LED, HPS, CMH and mixed-source lighting\u003cbr\u003e\n• Connection: RJ12 sensor bus with T-splitter\/daisy-chain capability\u003cbr\u003e\n• Working Temperature: 32–122°F (0–50°C)\u003cbr\u003e\n• Working Humidity: ≤90% RH, non-condensing\u003cbr\u003e\n• Mounting Position: Canopy height, sensor element facing upward toward the fixture plane\u003cbr\u003e\n• Mounting Hardware: ½\" post clamp\u003cbr\u003e\n• Cable Included: 4-ft RJ12 cable\u003cbr\u003e\n• T-Splitter Included: Yes\u003cbr\u003e\n• End Caps Included: 2× ½\" end caps\u003cbr\u003e\n• Package Dimensions: 160 × 86 × 86 mm\u003cbr\u003e\n• DLI Support: Hydro-X Plus can use MBS-PAR data to track Daily Light Integral (DLI)\u003cbr\u003e\n• Sensor Bus: Can coexist with MBS-PRO on the same RJ12 chain\u003cbr\u003e\n• Outdoor Use: Not rated for direct outdoor exposure or condensing environments\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eKey Advantage: Unlike a basic photocell that only detects whether light is present, the MBS-PAR provides a true PPFD measurement at canopy level, allowing the Hydro-X system to maintain a more consistent light intensity as fixtures, lamps, and reflective surfaces change over time.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hydro Supply Co.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67610184843300,"sku":"TRLM-MBS-PAR","price":553.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0254\/3914\/1924\/files\/full-spectrum-quantum-sensor-mbs-par.jpg?v=1791317625","url":"https:\/\/www.growitdepot.com\/products\/trolmaster-full-spectrum-quantum-sensor","provider":"Grow It Depot","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
