Shutter fluorometer – submersible
The Shutter Fluorometer Submersible Series comprises cylindrical waterproof sensors that either plug into a computer, or connect using a wireless link (particularly useful in wet environments). With Aquation’s easy-to-use software interface, users can quickly start making useful chlorophyll fluorescence measurements.
- Measures variable fluorescence of chlorophyll
- Uses PAM method
- Far red light for PSII deactivation
- Automatic ranging and autozero functions
- Fully waterproof for field and wet-lab applications
- Wireless or USB link to PC
- Sensor with flat base or cable extending from base
- Repeated measurements are possible when attached to PC or datalogger
- Easy-to-use software with an uncluttered interface
- Pre-programmed light curves are available
