The PLC3 Narrow and Conifer LED light unit is designed to mate quickly and easily with the PLC3 Conifer
or Narrow leaf cuvette.
Step 1
Secure light unit to notches on
cuvette head.
Step 2
Pull Light Unit over cuvette
and secure locking screw.
Step 3
Connect electrically.
Please note. Maximum light intensity and range of temperature control is dependent on RGBW
settings.
Also, due to the distance between the LEDs in the light unit and the PLC3 Narrow and Conifer
internal PAR sensor, maximum light intensity may be lower than 2000 µmol m
-2
s
-1
depending on mixture
of red, green, blue and white LEDs.
CFM-3 Chlorophyll Fluorescence Module
The CFM-3 Chlorophyll Fluorescence
Module looks very similar to the PLC3
Universal LED Light Unit. The major
difference being the inclusion of all
fluorescence associated light sources
and detection capability that is built
directly into the light unit.
Attachment and connection to the PLC3 Universal Leaf Cuvette is identical to that described above with
the PLC3 Universal LED Light Unit. See
PLC3 Universal LED Light Unit (RGBW)
on page 57.
TIP
The CFM-3 can also be used as an actinic light source for gas exchange measurements if required.
