ICT International has an extensive range of measurement solutions for tree and plant water use.
The SFM1 and SFM1x both use the Heat Ratio Method, and offer different communication solutions. The original SFM1 is used as a standalone logging instrument for data download as a single CSV file.
The SFM1x is the next generation SFM1 with three communication options: CAT-M1/NB-IoT, LoRaWAN (6 different frequencies available) and a Bluetooth only option.
Designing the experimental installation of the SFM1 or SFM1x, understanding the xylem flows is necessary. The HFD1 and 2 provide the ability to measure xylem flows in multiple directions (both vertically and radial)

The EratosSFM Water usage workflow provides cloud based computation and display of tree and plant water use from the SFM1x Sap Flow Meter. The SFM1x directly measures sap velocity in the plant xylem (cm/hr) using the established Heat Ratio Method (HRM), which when multiplied with correction factors for wounding and probe alignment gives the Corrected…
The SFM1x Sap Flow Meter is an IoT enabled sap flow sensor for the measurement of tree and plant water use. IoT connection via LoRaWAN or NB-IoT.
HFD – Heat Field Deformation Sap Flow Meter
The SFM1 Sap Flow Meter is a self-contained logging sensor solution for laboratory measurement of plant water use in ecophysiological experiments.
