The Environmental Characterization Optics (ECO) series of single channel fluorometers delivers both high resolution and wide ranges across our entire line of parameters using 14 bit digital processing. The ECO series excels in biological monitoring and dye trace studies. The potted optics block results in long term stability of the instrument and the optional anti-biofouling technology delivers truly long term field measurements.

Phycoerythrin & Phycocyanin

ECO phycobilin fluorometers have the high resolution necessary for early detection of either blue-green (phycocyanin) or brown (phycoerythrin) algae. These fluorometers are relative measurement instruments and should be calibrated by cell counts for a particular water mass.
