Fluorometer Rentals
Fluorometers are highly precise and senstive instruments capable of detecting individual parameters down to a level of parts per trillion. We carry fluorometers for most applications including cost effective handheld models and very powerful laboratory grade instruments. They are commonly used for highly accurate measurements of Rhodamine dye, water monitoring, waste management studies, measuring Chlorophyll, and much more. Our experienced engineers can help configure a fluorometer rental specifically for your needs.
Our water quality sonde rentals can be outfitted with optical probes for the detection of Rhodamine and a few other parameters that are measured by fluorometers.
Turner Designs AquaFluor
Handheld 2 Channel Fluorometer
Featured Fluorometer Rental

Magnify
The AquaFluor is a powerful fluorometer with sub ppb resolution that can fit in your shirt pocket and is also our most cost effective fluorometer rental. Our AquaFluor rentals can be configured with up to 2 of 10 different parameters including Rhodamine and Fluoroscien dye. The AquaFluor weighs less then 14 ounces and is capable of detecting Rhodamine down to a level of 0.4 ppb, while still being able to be configured with a second channel for various additional capabilities like measuring both the flourescence and turbidity of a single sample, in the field. Not only is this instrument incredibly powerful for its size, it also floats, is water/dust proof, and even includes datalogging.

Turner Designs TD-700
Laboratory Fluorometer

Magnify
The TD-700 is our most versatile fluorometer rental due to its ability to be configured for up to 4 of 20 different parameters. It is also extremely sensitive and able to detect Rhodamine down to a level of 10 parts per trillion. Many parameters can be switched in seconds simply by rotating the sample chamber to one of four positions. The lamp assembly is also easily accessible for when the situation also requires a lamp change. The TD-700 is a complete laboratory grade fluorometer with a compact design and features a printer/pc output, excellent linearity, and is capable of performing up to a 5 point calibration. Our experienced engineers can help to configure a TD-700 rental for many applications including fluorescent tracer studies, water monitoring, molecular biology, food processing, Chlorophyll measurement, and much more.
