AER-200 Research Respiromeer

The AER-208 Research Respirometer System. Automated, precision measuring and continuous recording of respiration rates for both aerobic and anaerobic lab-scale cultures, on up to 24 reactors, simultaneously. This system has been the cornerstone of countless discoveries and has been a primary research tool, used in hundreds of research projects, worldwide.

The Challenge AER-208 Research Respirometer System, also, will measure solids-based microcosms, making it useful for evaluation of soil, compost and biodegradable material studies.

Respirometry is a valuable tool in understanding and optimizing biological processes.

Challenge Technology is the world leader in manufacturing and support of respirometric measuring equipment. For over 21 years,
Challenge Technology has provided the highest quality respirometers available for testing in wastewater treatment and other fields.
