Compact and fully integrated
The next generation of multi-sample, plant gas exchange
analysis systems. The EGA60p is a fully integrated
system, featuring an accurate and reliable CO2
analyser, combined with a versatile gas multiplexer in
one compact unit. The EGA60p is designed for
measurements during long-term, continuous
experiments.
The new, fully integrated EGA60p is easy to install and
significantly reduces experimental set up times
compared to earlier systems.
Analysis of up to 24 samples
A single EGA60p system can sequentially analyse up to
24 experimental samples. The EGA60p is available with
5, 10, 15, 20 or 25 channels. One channel being
reserved for a zero column

Fully programmable
ADC has a reputation for developing the world’s easiest
to use gas exchange systems. The EGA60p has been
designed to be the most user-friendly, multi-sample
plant physiology system ever. Complete functionality is
achieved with just 5 keys driving a series of menus. No
separate “bolt on” PC or laptop is required.
Sampling times of individual channels can be set
together with total experimental times.
The EGA60p features a large backlit LCD display for
clear programming and presentation of real-time gas
exchange data.

Constant flow maintains sample integrity
Flow in each channel may be automatically programmed
between 0-500ml min-1.
Importantly a constant flow is maintained around the system
to all sample channels, at all times. This ensures that the
integrity of each sample is preserved by ensuring
equilibrium inside each experimental chamber is
maintained.
Integral data storage
The EGA60p provides integral data storage on
interchangeable SD cards, each capable of storing many
hundreds of thousands of data points.
Data may be downloaded to a PC directly from the SD
cards or via a USB port.
Measurement of plant gas exchange
EGA60p is a multi-channel differential analysis system
measuring each experimental chamber before and after the
chamber to provide a differential gas exchange
measurement for the plant material inside each chamber.
Gas exchange data is clearly presented on the backlit LED
display.
Data provided by the EGA60p can subsequently be used to
calculate the rate of plant CO2 uptake (photosynthesis) or
net CO2 exchange rate within an ecosystem chamber where
the chamber may contain both carbon sink and carbon
source material.
The EGA60p can be configured with your own columns or
chambers, whether your application is plant science or
environmental ecology.
