Milwaukee MW 700 / 700WP Light Meter

The MW700 and MW700WP light meters are equipment for measuring light intensity , taking the lux as the reference unit.

This instrument is used, for example, to calculate the intensity of light received by crop plants , the light from indoor spaces or the light in a bucket, tank or aquarium in the case of the MW700WP submersible model, in order to assess the degree turbidity and water quality .
The unit of measurement is the Lux , with 3 selectable range scales: from 0 to 1999lux, from 2000 to 19999Lux and from 20000 to 50000Lux. The resolution varies between 1 and 100Lux depending on the range scale used. Accuracy is around +/- 6%.
Supplied with a silicone photodiode probe or sensor and a 9V alkaline battery .
