Flurometers AquaFluor 74

AquaFluor

The AquaFluor is a lightweight, inexpensive, handheld fluorometer & turbidimeter (combination) ideal for field use.

Its small size and durability makes the AquaFluor perfect for users who require quick measurements in the field.  Dual-channel capability allows users to measure fluorescence & turbidity in one sample. While small in size, performance has not been compromised.
