Photon detection unit

C17056-01

The C17056-01 is a photon detection unit designed to make measuring low-level light at photon counting levels smooth and easy. With this unit, photon counting measurements require no special setups and are quick and simple.

All the user does is place a sample in the sample holder and enter commands from a measurement program. This unit is ideal for measuring delayed fluorescence emitted from plants and algae.

Applications

  • Delayed fluorescence measurements
  • Environmental response evaluations
  • Stress response evaluations

Features

  • No complicated setup required
    • This unit incorporates a photomultiplier tube (PMT), a power supply for working the PMT, a pulse shaper for detecting sigle photon outputs, and a pulse counter. Also, since the compatible test tube holder and sample holder (sold separately) for this unit have an excellent light-shielding structure.
  • Detectable wavelengths up to 850 nm
  • Excitation light source with 3 different wavelengths
    • This unit includes an excitation light source that emits light at 680 nm, 700 nm and 720 nm. The wavelength can be switched and the light intensity can be adjusted programmatically.
  • Samples can be measured while in test tubes or petri dishes
    • Two types of sample holders are available: one type holds 25 mm-diameter, 80 mm-long test tubes, and the other is a drawer type accommodating 60 mm-diameter petri dishes.
  • Comes with a measurement program
