3 GENERAL INFORMATION
N-Pen N 110 is a light-weight, battery-powered reflectance-based instrument that provides a convenient, cost-effective
method for effective nitrogen management in plants throughout their growing season. Essentially, the N-Pen characterizes
nitrogen amount by means of reflectance and by the concept of a close link between chlorophyll content and nitrogen
content in plants.
Rugged and compact N-Pen can be used for plant biology research or for education. Due to an inbuilt GPS module and
splash-proof cover is N-Pen suitable for field experiments. The measurement is non-destructive and permits quick,
repeated monitoring throughout the growing season. The device is equipped with rechargeable Li-ion battery.
Measured data are sequentially stored in the internal N-Pen memory. Data transfer is via USB or Bluetooth communication.
Comprehensive FluorPen 1.1 software provides data transfer routines and many additional features for data presentation
in tables and graphs.
