LK-2400 Portable Soil CO2 CH4 N2O Respiration Measurement System
The LK-2400 Portable Soil CO2 CH4 N2O Respiration Measurement System is mainly used for in situ measurement of soil respiration rate, and it can also be connected to a static box to measure community photosynthesis or net exchange (NEE). Gas flux measurements usually include plant leaf-atmosphere interface gas flux measurements, soil surface-atmosphere interface gas flux measurements, and ecosystem-atmosphere interface gas flux measurements. The portable soil respiration measurement system consists of a main control module, a gas analysis module and a front-end sampling module. The main control module can integrate the analysis module, barometric pressure, temperature and humidity, GPS and other data to control the system operation status and calculate the gas flux or respiration rate according to the customer's demand. The gas analysis module is standardly equipped with a mid-infrared laser spectroscopy (MIR) analysis module, which can analyse the target gas by its superb absorption in the mid-infrared (MIR) band, and can achieve ultra-high sensitivity and accuracy monitoring within seconds. Meanwhile, the analyser is equipped with a precision temperature and pressure stabilised optical core, which provides the advantages of low-drift performance, high specificity, discriminative properties, accuracy and stability.
