Applications for the ULM-500

The ULM-500 can continuously measure values triggered by an internal timer. For this purpose no additional computer is necessary.
To save battery power, the instrument has a "sleep mode", i.e. it only wakes up briefly for each measurement.

Using the ULM-500 for a continuous measurement (e.g. one data point every 5 min), the batteries would last for at least 3-4 months (depending on the temperature conditions).

For some of our PAM instruments, we provide sensors for the light-list calibration or for light and temperature measurements during an experiment. If just these sensors shall be used, it can be advantageously to have a small separate instrument like the Universal Light Meter ULM-500 to readout these sensors independently of a PAM.

In combination with the IMAGING-PAM system the ULM-500 can be used for calibration purposes and the recording of the incident light during the experiment. Additionally the ULM-500 is fast enough to determine the intensity of the saturating light pulses.
