Plant Photosynthesis Meter Ears miniPPM

There are several miniPPM versions. The table below shows the differences in functionality and use. The miniPPM is equipped with a clear and simple user interface with several options of display. Data can be stored. These series can be stored in the PPM memory together with the time and day. It is also possible to do long series of measurements without user interaction. The measurements can be stored on µ SD card or be downloaded directly to PC. The instrument is designed for field conditions. It weighs only 250 gr. Starting with a full battery more than 3000 measurements can be done. The PPM is delivered in a handy field case with a clear manual. The new miniPPM is the third generation of our plant photosynthesis meter. It features the latest innovations in optics and electronics and is based on a new, advanced measuring concept. Electronics innovation and smaller components made it possible to design an entirely new device, much smaller and lighter in weight than previous versions, without compromising on quality and accuracy. Yet the instrument is simple in operation: just press the button and a photosynthesis measurement is completed within a second. Laboratory tests show excellent properties. Measurements are stable and reproducable. The basic version of the instrument, the miniPPM-100, measures chlorophyll fluorescence and photosynthesis efficiency. It is low cost and very convenient to farmers and greenhouse growers. With the more advanced model, the miniPPM-200, photosynthetic active radiation and photosynthesis rate are also determined. With this instrument long, unattended measuring series can be done and stored on microSD card or logged to PC. The miniPPM-300 is the most complete scientific and professional version. This instrument is capable of imposing predefined light levels and generating photosynthesis-light curves automatically. The miniPPM has a wide range of applications in research, education and practice. It is also very suitable for education purposes, and a unique gadget to anyone who wants to know more about the health and growth of plants.
