The Classic Fluorometer, Wireless Standard 50m is designed for ease of handling, with the cable extending from the base of the sensor. The sensor is waterproof to 50m/164ft depth. The sensor enables convenient measurement of wet material including aquatic plants, algae and wet leaves. The small size of the fluorometer (1.8?diameter, 2.7? long), and its 12-24V capability makes it easy to use in the field. On commencing measurements, one establishes a suitable
gain setting with a sample leaf and a zero offset value in air or water. Chlorophyll-containing samples are then simply placed over the sampling window
for single or repeated measurements.
The Classic Fluorometer, Wireless Standard 50 m is designed to be operated from a PC (Windows XP and later). A small transceiver plugs into the computer
USB port. The interface enclosure receives the signal from up to 40 m away. This enables the computer to be located separately from the sensor,
for example in a dry part of a greenhouse. Both power and the fluorescence sensor are connected to the interface enclosure. All items are contained
in a lightweight carry case that is small enough to fit in a shoulder bag.
