Leaf-Clip Fluorometer is designed to measure fluorescence of plant leaves or their segments. The measured area is a circle of 12.7 mm (0.5 inch) in diameter.
The measuring compartment is equipped with a leaf clip that enables holding the target leaf close to the optical surface without damaging or removing it from its habitat. It is also equipped with a holder that allows easy manipulation.
The instrument is supplied with three sets of light-emitting diodes and a PIN diode detector with 1 MHz/16-bit AD converter and software controlled gain and integration time.

The light-emitting diodes can generate:
- Measuring flashes, typically 2-5 µs long. Standard red-orange color (λmax=617 nm)
- Single-turnover saturating flashes, typically 20-50 µs long. Standard red color (λmax=630 nm)
- Continuous actinic light of the maximum intensity of 1,500 µmol(photons).m-2.s-1. Standard red color (λmax=630 nm)
Light intensities and timing are software controlled, separately for each LED set. As an option, the customer can also choose light-emitting diodes of different wavelengths. Contact PSI for your specific needs. The data are processed and the instrument is controlled by the FluorWin software (Windows 95/98/2000/XP compatible).
