Step-In FytoScope FS 3400
Step-In FytoScope FS-SI are plant growth chambers that utilize Light Emiting Diodes (LEDs) as a sole light source. Thus excellent spectral quality with high irradiance is provided for plant physiology applications. Due to versatile construction, these FytoScopes may be used for growing of diverse plants: from Arabidopsis to wheat, corn or rice.
- Lighting: adjustable in intensity (from 0 % to 100 %), timing, modulation, and diurnal cycling
- Temperature: maximum +40 °C; minimum +10 °C (lights ON, ambient room temperature up to 35 °C); optionally minimum down to 0 °C
- Relative humidity adjustable from 40 % to 80 % (independent on light intensity)
- LED technology with minimum undesired plant heating
- White LED illumination with supplementary FAR LEDs for excellent plant growth
- PPFD up to 1,000 µmol.m-2.s-1 at the distance of 50 cm (higher intensity as an option)
- Rapid modulation of irradiance simulating light flecks
- Precise adjustment of the light intensity from 1 to 100 %
- Homogeneous illumination over the whole cultivation area
of 0.88 m2 (model FS-SI 3400) respectively 1.32 m2 (model FS-SI 4600) - additional growing space at the bottom - Adjustable shelving
- Step-in unit with inside capacity of 3400 l (model FS-SI 3400); 4600 l (model FS-SI 4600) - other volumes on request
- For extra protection of investigated plants, the Fytoscope features both hardware and software protection against undesired overheating of the inside environment
- Incorporated measuring of chlorophyll fluorescence (optional)
