AELAB Plant Culm-Strength Meter YYD-1A/1B | Precision Crop Stem Testing

The Plant Culm-Strength Meter YYD-1A/1B is an advanced and portable instrument designed to measure the strength of plant culms with high accuracy and resolution. It is ideal for evaluating plant stems and understanding their mechanical properties, which is essential for crop management, agricultural research, and quality control in plant breeding.

This meter is easy to use and offers various useful features. It automatically saves key data, including testing pressure, time, and the sequence number of tests, ensuring accurate and organized results. The instrument allows users to select and switch between Kpa and N2 testing units to suit different testing needs. It also includes an auto switch-off function to conserve energy and a backlight feature for ease of use in low-light environments.

Features:

• ✅ High Accuracy & Resolution: Provides precise measurements for plant stem strength.

• ✅ Portable & Easy to Use: Convenient design for field and laboratory use.

• ✅ Auto Save Function: Automatically saves testing pressure, time, and sequence number.

• ✅ Selectable Units: Allows switching between Kpa and N2 for versatile testing.

• ✅ Energy-Saving: Auto switch-off feature for efficient energy use.

• ✅ Backlight Function: Makes testing easy even in low-light conditions.

🔬 How It Works?

The AELAB Plant Culm-Strength Meter measures the breaking force of plant stems (culms) by applying a controlled load until structural failure occurs. The integrated high-resolution sensor records the force applied, while the digital interface automatically saves testing pressure, time, and sequence data. Users can select between N and Kpa units for flexible measurement needs.
