Hansatech Instruments, UK. Handy PEA + Instrument description Fluorometer Handy PEA+ Description and functionality The Handy Pea is supplied by control unit and sensor with 3 ultra-bright red LEDs which are filtered to a peak of wavelenght of 650 nm, up to a maximum intensity of 3500 µmol m s . After a dark adaptation period (using the leafclip), leaves were exposed to a saturating red actinic light pulse of 3500 µmol photons m s of 1 second duration. The kinetics of polyphasic prompt fluorescence rise (PF) was recorded. Another important role of leafclip is to shield the fluorescence detector from ambient light. For the first 300 µ seconds data is sampled at 10 µ second intervals. Since the kinetic activity reduces, the subsequent induction phases is recorded at lower rate. http://www.hansatech-instruments.com/product/handy-pea/ http://www.hansatech-instruments.com/technical-support-2/ Read more about Hansatech Instruments, UK.
