MIJ-02LM TypeII Linear Dendrometer

Absolute Linear Dendrometer MIJ-02LM TypeII

Picture shows 2 sensors but selling sensor one by one

Feature

  • Basically, target is the tree stem but by adjusting the securing bracket and spring rate will be able to measure thin branch, fruit, crops and etc.
  • Possible to read daily expansion and contraction by equipping the non-backlash potentiometer.
  • Reduced thermal characteristic to the limit by offsetting the linear thermal expansion coefficient of shaft and fixed nail.
  • Avoid the thermal characteristic of potentiometer by using ratiometric output
  • Minimum friction help to setting spring constant low

Introduction

Photosynthetic rate and water potential, these biological data are hard to gain by using automatic measurement. These difficulties can be solved by Dendrometer; MIJ-02 LM Type2 is the Dendorometer that will help measuring live tree’s sapwood displacement for long term and also high time resolution. MIJ-02 LM Type2 can measure with less than 0.1um resolution and also be able to analyze process of sapwood shrinks occur from sapflow and relation with sapwood pressure potential. As annual changes, individual carbon fixation and production from individual live tree will be the direct index which can lead estimation of whole canopy value.
