AlgaeTron AG 230

AlgaeTron AG 230 is a floor standing incubated shaker that has three independently illuminated spaces for controlled growing of algae, cyanobacteria or bacteria. Illumination in each space is separately controllable in intensity, mode and timing. AG 230 is designed with minimal footprint size that makes it ideal for laboratories with limited space. It comes with a durable shaker with loading capacity of 3 kg.

Easy-to-read display screen located on the AlgaeTron front side clearly shows operating parameters and actual values. Intuitive programming allows multiple parameter changes to timing, light intensity, light characteristics, temperature, and shaking power. Optionally, the AlgaeTron may be supplemented with a Gas Mixing System GMS 150 that can bring pure or mixed gases into the incubator.

  • Three independently illuminated cultivation spaces: illumination in each space can be controlled separately and each space can be equipped with its own shaker
  • Programmable LED-based illumination:
    - warm white or cool white LED-light panels
    - precise intensity control in the range of 1 % to 100 % of total output
    - user-defined modulation
    - timing steps from seconds to hours
  • Light intensity
    - top panel: up to 500 µmol(photon)/m2.s ( at 30 cm from the light source)
    - two lower panels: up to 100 µmol(photon)/m2.s ( at 30 cm from the light source)
  • Temperature control: programmable controller ramps temperature up or down in the range of +10 to +55 oC (shaking ON, maximum illumination ON)
  • Intuitive programming: allows parameter changes to timing, temperature, photosynthetic light, and shaking speed
  • Agitation: bench-scale orbital shaker with the speed range of 40-400 RPM and loading capacity up to 3 kg

Other FytoScope/AlgaeTron Versions

FytoScope Chamber FS 130

FytoScope Chamber FS 130 is designed for well-defined growing and monitoring of higher plants. It is equipped with a LED-based light panel that provides high-intensity illumination, which is controllable in its power, spectral composition and temporal modulation.


FytoScope Chambers FS 250, FS 360

FS 250 and FS 360 are growth chambers that are accessible from the top. Their lid is equipped with a LED-based light panel. Controllable parameters are temperature and illumination.


Step-In FytoScope FS 3400

Step-in Fytoscope FS 3400 enables the researcher to maintain controlled growing conditions of temperature and humidity in a 24 h period with independent selection of photoperiods. A full range of "day/night" cycles with "dawn/dusk" and "cloudy sky" effects can be programmed. In addition, basic fluorescence parameters are monitored.


AlgaeTron AG 130-ECO

AlgaeTron AG 130 is a floor standing incubated shaker that provides well-defined conditions for growing algae and cyanobacteria. It comes with a shaker and is equipped with a large, easy-to-read display screen. Intuitive programming allows multiple parameter changes to timing, light intensity, light characteristics, temperature, and shaking power.
