About Granier (TDP) Sap Flow System

Granier’s sap flow measuring system (Granier, 1985, 1987; Lu et al, 2004)

  • stands for its simplicity and versatility
  • the mostly used sap flow method by tree ecophysiologists and forest hydrologists in the world.

PlantSensors’ TDP sensors are

  • made truly according to Granier‘s original design and they perfectly fit to Granier’s original calibration.
  • considered by many leadings scientists in forest ecology to be the most reliable system under hot and humid conditions.
  • built to rely on!

About PlantSensors

PlantSensors is an award-winning business in design and manufacture of Granier Sap Flow Measurement System (aka TDP Sap Flow System) that was originally invented by Prof. André Granier in 1985 in France.

PlantSensors

  • established in 1994 in Australia at the request of CSIRO – Australia’s top Science Agency.
  • our founder Dr. Ping Lu was a PhD student and Post Doctoral Fellow supervised by Prof. Granier in (1987-1994)
  • CSIRO was our very first customer.
  • Prof. Granier and his colleagues purchase regularly from us.
  • exported to 27 countries/regions across 6 continents, many world’s most prestigious organisations.

What Our Customers Say

“… your sensors are the most reliable in the field, easiest to install, and best value for the dollar.  Your customer support is excellent.  I’m very happy doing business with you.”

“PlantSensors sapflow instrumentation has a particularly low failure rate compared to other vendors, … provide the most accurate sensors on the market …

require the least maintenance of all sapflow sensors we have experience with.”

“A detailed market research by our NGEE Tropics team …  resulted in three potential vendors X(USA), Y (Germany), and Plant Sensors (Australia). Sensors from X and Y were tested among project researchers and presented failures in the field and reduced accuracy relative to those from Plant Sensors.

The sap flow sensors from Plant Sensors are widely used by the community of sap flow researchers globally, including Andre Granier, who originally designed the method.”

“Thanks very much Lily.  Your sensors are doing well in our tropical installations, with much fewer issues than the homemade ones some collaborators are using. – Jeff”

… Your sensors work perfectly. …

“…  we were able to get reliable data from your sensors and not from the ones we made in our lab. Therefore, we decided to go ahead and buy the sensors from you directly to avoid more delays in our project.”

“Thanks Ping,

Its always nice working with your team.

Cheers,

Nate”
