Description
The PASCO PASPort High Sensitivity Light Sensor PS-2176 is designed to be used with a PASCO PASPort compatible interface to make measurements of relative light intensity. It is designed to perform visible light studies from low-intensity spectral studies to daylight. Built-in automatic variable oversampling reduces noise.
Measure in bright sunlight to dim candlelight, and everything in between! PASCO's Light Sensor has three ranges to accommodate a wide variety of student light measurements. Switch ranges with the touch of a button and without losing calibration. No other Light Sensor combines such a wide range with such high-sensitivity.
NOTE: It is recommended that you purchase a PASPort-compatible interface in order to retrieve readings from the sensor.

- Mounts easily to PASCO apparatus
- Study interference/diffraction/polarization
- Compare relative intensity of reflected light from a variety of surfaces
