PPFD (µmol m⁻² s⁻¹) to Lux Calculator










Calculation Formula

The formula to calculate Lux from PPFD (\(\mu mol m^{-2} s^{-1}\)) is:

\[ Lux = PPFD \times Conversion\ Factor \]

Where:

  • \(Lux\) is the illuminance in lux.
  • \(PPFD\) is the Photosynthetic Photon Flux Density.
  • Conversion Factor depends on the type of light source.
