Definition | The Turner C3 is a submersible fluorometer that can be configured with up to 3 optical sensors ranging from deep ultraviolet to the infrared spectrum in order to detect chlorophyll a, fluorescein, oil, phycocyanin, tryptophan, turbidity, and others. Data can be output in raw fluorescence mode, raw fluorescence blank subtracted mode, or direct concentration mode. This last mode outputs everything in ppb, except for chlorophyll a which is in micrograms/l and turbidity in NTU. Outputs can be in ASCII format or analogue (0-5 volt) format. Each optic sensor is designed with fixed excitation and emission filters. The instrument is made of delrin plastic and comes with a factory installed temperature sensor. It has internal memory storage and an external submersible lithium battery. It also includes copper pieces to reduce biofouling. The instrument can include factory installed pressure sensor and copper-armed mechanical wipers. The minimum sample interval is 1 second. Minimum detection limits (MDL) range from 0.01 to 3 ppb depending on the application. Chlorophyll MDLs are 0.03 microgram/l for blue excitation and 0.3 microgram/l for red excitation. MDL for turbidity is 0.05 NTU. The instrument withstands temperatures of -2 to 50 degrees, and pressures of 0 to 600 m. | ||
