CFLUX-1 Automated Soil CO2 Flux System
A dedicated, self-contained system for long-term deployment and unattended operation for measurement of soil respiration. Ideal for both spatial and temporal analysis
-
Fully automatic, programmable & stand-alone operation
-
Integral CO2 & H2O infrared gas analysers
-
WiFi for setup & remote monitoring from desktop & mobile devices
-
Easy installation & setup
-
Optional sensors for soil moisture & temperature
Analysis Method | Two non-dispersive infrared, configured as an absolute absorptiometer with microprocessor control of linearization for both CO2 and H2O. All readings are automatically corrected for temperature, pressure and foreign gas broadening. |

CO2 Measurement Range |
0-2000 µmol mol-1 (Standard) • Precision: 1 µmol mol-1 For high CO2 environments the system can be calibrated up to 30000 ppm |
H2O Range |
0-75 mb • Precision: 0.1 mb |
Pressure Compensation Range | 80-115 kPa |
Absolute Accuracy | < 1% of span concentration over the calibrated range but limited by the accuracy of the calibration mixture |
Linearity | < 1% throughout the range |
Stability | Auto-Zero at regular intervals corrects for sample cell contamination, source and detector aging and changes in electronics. |
