Microscope Multi LED Light Source

 Multi-Wavelength High power LED Light Source for Fluorescence Microscopy

The new modular Microscope-Multi-LED Light Source is an affordable solution for fluorescence excitation in upright and inverted fluorescence microscopes.
The standard system comprises two or three High Power LEDs (HP-LED) and corresponding dichroic beam combiners. The system is based on Prizmatix interchangeable HP-LED (Microscope-LED) and beam combiner OptiBlocks.

Each HP-LED OptiBlock is available in a wide range of a specific excitation wavelengths (please see full list below).OptiBlock’s truly modular design also enables flexibility in choosing the optimum dichroic beam combiner OptiBlock to suit required excitation wavelengths.

The Microscope-Multi-LED current controller TLCC-01 can drive multiple HP-LEDs in either continuous or pulsed modes.

The unit comprises a microcontroller that enables easy and fast connection to a computer via a USB port, and is provided with Windows software to control the Microscope-Multi-LED directly from a PC.

The system can be also controlled by sending a Hyper Terminal style commands. This option is particularly useful for microscope image analysis and microscope automation software (VBA enabled applications).

The current controller also equipped with external TTL trigger input which is useful for a high speed ON/OFF switching of the LED power

High Powered LEDs wavelengths currently available (other wavelengths on demand):

365nm, 385nm, 390nm, 395nm, 400nm, 405nm, 410nm, 415nm, 420nm, 425nm, 430nm, 435nm, 440nm, 445nm, 455nm, 460nm, 470nm, 480nm, 500nm, 515nm, 535nm, 595nm, 630nm and  white.
