The SF-9000 Multi-Channel Soil Carbon Flux Automatic Measuring System, manufactured by LICA in China, is capable of measuring soil CO2 flux at various locations, enabling continuous and long-term monitoring of soil carbon flux. The SF-9000 can operate with up to 18 soil chambers and is also suitable for studying CO2 and water vapor profiles.
Main Features
- The control system supports the connection of up to 18 soil chambers, making it ideal for experimental
designs that require multiple repetitions and processes. - It allows for long-term field monitoring without the need for human supervision, facilitating continuous, high- precision, and automatic unattended monitoring.
- The system automatically calculates gas flux without the need for post-processing of data. Each chamber can be equipped with additional sensors, such as those for measuring soil temperature and moisture.
- The system is lightweight, energy-efficient, and built for durability.
- The storage medium utilized is an SD card.
LICA SF-9000 in Thailand
The LICA SF-9000 is a multi-channel soil carbon flux measurement system in Thailand supplied and supported by Thai Unique, built to track how much CO2 leaves the soil across many plots over long, unattended field campaigns.

Where a soil carbon flux measurement system is used in Thailand
Based on the specifications above, the SF-9000 suits soil and ecosystem research groups that:
- Need to measure soil respiration (soil CO2 flux) at several points across a study area rather than at a single fixed spot.
- Work with experimental designs built on multiple treatments and replicates, since one control system can drive as many as 18 chambers.
- Want a station that keeps recording through nights, weekends and full seasons with nobody on site to supervise it.
- Need flux values that are already worked out by the instrument, plus the option to add soil temperature and moisture sensors at each chamber.
Service and support in Thailand
An analytical instrument does not end at delivery. Thai Unique supports yours from within the country.
- Installation and calibration — our engineers install the system, run performance verification and calibrate it for your actual workload
- Scheduled preventive maintenance — year-round cover under a Service Contract, with costs you can budget for
- Repairs with genuine spare parts — experienced technicians using original components from the manufacturer
- Operator training — classroom and hands-on training on your own instrument
- Sample testing and method verification — we run your real samples and verify the method before you commit
Frequently asked questions
Can the SF-9000 record soil temperature and moisture alongside the CO2 flux at each chamber?
Yes — each chamber can be fitted with extra sensors such as soil temperature and moisture, and the readings are stored on an SD card. If you want help matching the sensor set and chamber count to your own plots, our team can go through it with you.
Why buy LICA SF-9000 from Thai Unique rather than direct from the manufacturer?
Because the people who look after it are here. Installation, calibration, scheduled maintenance, repairs with genuine parts and operator training are all handled by our team in Thailand, without routing every request overseas.
Can we test our own samples before deciding?
Yes. Our sample testing and method verification service runs your real samples so you can see the results this soil carbon flux measurement system gives on your workload before you buy.
How much does it cost, and how do we request a quotation?
Pricing depends on the configuration, accessories and the scope of work in your laboratory. Tell our sales team what you need to analyse and how many samples you run per day, and we will propose a configuration together with lead time and service terms.
