Actinic light: Same LED as used for modulated light. Actinic PAR, 25 to 1500 μmol μmol m-2 s-1; maximum PAR of saturation pulses, 10 000 μmol μmol m-2 s-1. All data valid for 1 mm distance from the tip of the 50 cm JUNIOR-PAM light guide

Optoelectronic Unit JUNIOR-PAM/W
(WHITE Version)

Modulated fluorescence excitation: White LED (wavelengths of maximum emission: 445 and 545 nm). Modulation frequencies 5 to 25 Hz adjustable in increments of 5 Hz, and 100 Hz. Fluorescence at wavelengths greater than 650 nm is measured

Actinic light: Same LED as used for modulated light. PAR at 1 mm distance from the tip of the 50 cm JUNIOR-PAM light guide: between 25 and 1500 μmol m-2 s-1. Maximum PAR of saturation pulses, 10 000 µmol m-2 s-1

Optoelectronic Unit JUNIOR-PAM
