The Open Path Solution

Designed for Eddy Covariance

The open path design of the LI-7700 provides elegant solutions to many of the challenges of measuring atmospheric CH4 flux over various ecosystems, while providing excellent co-spectra.

Quality Data

Eliminating pumps and tubing mean there are no pressure drops, sorption effects, or time delays to confound the measurement.

Low Power Operation

Low power requirements for the entire system enable the LI-7700 to be powered with solar panels in remote locations (~ 8W during normal operation).

Low Maintenance

Self-cleaning optics mean low maintenance requirements and less data loss.

The LI-COR Advantage


Reliability

LI-COR knows that field instruments require durability that bench-top instruments often lack. With that in mind, we designed the LI-7700 to make high-quality measurements through the extremes of the environment. Its lightweight design, extremely low power requirements, and low maintenance operation make it an ideal instrument for demanding field deployments.

Innovation

The scientific and engineering staff who lead the Environmental product line have collectively published and presented hundreds of posters, papers and platform talks at scientific conferences and in scientific journals over the last 38 years. LI-COR scientists are actively involved with the scientific community and regularly collaborate with leading scientists around the world.

Support

For over 38 years, LI-COR has developed innovative instruments and provided scientists with new tools for cutting edge research – and we will continue to do so. LI-COR operates with sound, enduring business principles, and you can count on us to support your LI-COR instruments for years to come.
