KL 1600 LED Stereo Microscope Lighting
Features a low noise cooling fan, this stereo microscope fiber optic cold light source provides brightness higher than 150 W halogen light source yet consumes 80% less energy. It features smooth electronic dimming between 0–100%, while maintaining stable color temperature.
Overview
The KL 1600 LED is an innovative fiber optic cold light source and an attractive alternative to conventional halogen light sources. It is ideal for standard and high end applications. Light generated by seven high brightness LEDs are coupled into a slim glass fiber bundle, while heat management is assured by the low noise cooling fan. The brightness is higher than a150W halogen lamp, yet it consumes 80% less energy. Continuous electronic dimming can be effected from zero to 100% and the color temperature remains stable when the light source is dimmed.
Brightness Equivalent to 150 W Halogen Light Source
Seven high brightness LEDs, each 4.9 W, offer illumination that is higher than a 150 W halogen lamp. The brightness is highly improved compared to its forerunner model, optimizing the KL 1600 LED as a standard illumination system for all stereo microscopes. Energy consumption is 80 % lower than conventional halogen light sources, which has the potential for significant cost savings and environmental benefits.
Very Low Noise Cooling Fan
A special low noise cooling fan optimizes heat management and minimizes noise and vibration at the microscope frame, allowing more accurate and comfortable routine microscopy.
Continuous Electronic Dimming from Zero to 100 %
The EasyLED series enables smooth and continuous electronic dimming from zero to 100 %. This provides the user with ultimate flexibility and control to adjust the illumination to the exact level required for different specimens.
No Color Temperature Shift on Dimming
Color temperature is maintained when the LED is dimmed to any level, thus enabling consistent observation at the optimum illumination.
Slider for Color Filters
The KL 1600 LED incorporates a special slider, which enables use of color and halogen conversion filters for a variety of observational methods and allows simple switching between color and monochrome imaging.
Wide range of suitable light guides
The optical system is optimized for coupling the light into one of many available light guides. Depending on the application different types of flexible light guides, gooseneck light guides, ring lights and light lines might fit best.
