BIO SCIENCE INSTRUMENTATION

Cl 110   Plant Canopy Imager

 The CI 110 Plant Canopy Imager captures wide-angle canopy images while estimating Leaf Area Index (LAI) and measuring Photosynthetically Active Radiation (PAR) levels. Images live-update on the included tablet, providing instant data for verification and analysis with integrated software in the field under any daylight conditions. User-selected zenith and azimuthal divisions allow investigation of any canopy sectors desired, and the instrument’s light-weight design makes it convenient for canopy imaging in any location!

 

Cl 202   Portable Leaf Area Meter

The CI 202 Portable Laser Area Meter uses advanced laser technology to provide researchers with a precise and convenient way to measure leaf area. The high-resolution laser scanner, data logger, and display are all enclosed in a durable, handheld scanner and detachable palette.
The CI 202 is used to perform non-destructive measurements on the leaves of living plants by placing the leaf on the palette and sliding the scanner over the leaf, enabling collection of data from the same plant, or even the same leaf, throughout its life span. The transparent, protective sheath on the palette makes it easy to capture precise leaf area measurement on tender or intricate leaves.

Cl 203  Handheld Leaf Area Meter

The CI 203 Handheld Laser Leaf Area Meter is a highly portable laser scanner ideal for rapid and non-destructive leaf area measurement in any location. Measurements are made easily by sweeping the scanner over a leaf to yield seven different parameters: area, width, length, perimeter, shape factor, aspect ratio, and void count. 
Researchers can use the CI 203 to make non-destructive measurements on leaves of living plants, enabling data collection on a leaf or plant throughout its life span. Graphical outline of the leaf shape is provided upon completing a scan, which provides verification that measurements are calculated accurately on even the most intricate leaf shapes. Built-in GPS tagging adds a location for each data point, and the removable SD card provides an easy and fast way to download data to your computer. For rapid measurement of detached leaves, the CI 203CA conveyor attachment makes a perfect complement to the CI 203.

Cl 340  Photosynthesis Measurement System

​The CI 340 Handheld Photosynthesis System is a portable, single-handed tool that measures photosynthesis, respiration, transpiration, stomatal conductance, PAR and internal CO­2. Light-weight and durable, the CI 340 was designed for field use. The optional accessory modules allow researchers to control CO2, H2O, temperature, light intensity, and measure chlorophyll fluorescence, while the ten different customized chambers accommodate any leaf size, including conifer needles and cacti. Direct chamber connection to the CO2/H2O gas analyzer reduces measurement delay and enables rapid measurement of gas exchange with minimal delays.

Cl 600   Root Imaging System

Observing a root system throughout a plant’s life cycle is key to understanding overall plant behavior and health, and to improving crop performance. The CI 600 is a minirhizotron that gives plant scientists, crop consultants, and farmers the ability to capture non-destructive, high-resolution, digital images of living roots in soil over multiple growing seasons. Durable and lightweight, the CI 600 is a portable minirhizotron that is easy to transport to any field location and can be used in sites with root tubes across a range of treatments or conditions.

Cl 710   Minature Leaf Spectrometer

The CI 710 Miniature Leaf Spectrometer is designed to measure the transmission, absorption, and reflection of light by biological substances within a wide range of wavelengths that cover visible and Near Infra-Red (NIR) light. Transmission and absorption spectrum measurements are the most common applications of spectrometers. The spectrum can be used for the quantification of chemical concentrations, color analysis, the study of photochemical reactions such as photosynthesis, and the quantification of physical or optical properties such as film thickness, index of refraction, and extinction coefficient.

Cl 800  LED Plant Growth Lighting System

The CI 800 is a programmable LED plant growth lighting system. It replaces fluorescent lighting in rack-style fixtures typically used in plant growth rooms, and is used in retrofits of environmental growth chambers. Illumination is provided primarily by blue, red, and white LEDs at wavelengths matching Photosynthetically Active Radiation (PAR). The color ratios and intensity can be independently controlled with the supplied software. Lighting regimes for experimental or routine plant growth can be uploaded to the control unit via WiFi.
