System description
The VisiLED Series comprises
the following components:
The VisiLED Series is an innovative illumination system using white LEDs.
Specially developed for the fields of stereo microscopy and macroscopy,
this system opens up many new possibilities for putting your specimen in
the right light.
The excellent, electronic controllability of the LEDs affords the VisiLED
Series contrasting methods, which far exceed the possibilities provided by
conventional microscope illuminations. Intensive cold light is brought
precisely to the specimen – heat-free and with the best-quality white
(Color temperature -approx. 5600 K.)!
The illumination system operates completely soundlessly and without
vibrating; the light produced does not ripple or flicker. The luminance remains
stable irrespective of voltage fluctuations.
• MC 1500 controller* and MC 1000 for optimum contrasting as well as the
MC 750 basic controller. When using the MC 1500 and MC 1000 all LED
illuminations can be controlled in segments. The MC 750 controller is a cost
effective alternative when less possibilities of contrasting are required.
• Three brightfield ringlights for intensive incident illumination (S80-25,
S80-55, S80-65N)) and a ringlight with reduced outside diameter (S40-75).
• A particularly ringlight with exchangeable brightfield working distances
and darkfield adapter (Slim-Ringlight).
• A darkfield ringlight for intensive illumination in incident darkfield
(S40-10D).
• An adapter for connecting the darkfield ringlight to 66 mm and
70 mm Ø objectives.
• An adapter kit for combined use of brightfield ringlights with the incident
darkfield ringlight.
• Two transmitted light stages for applications in the transmitted light bright
field or in the transmitted light darkfield.
• Additional accessories: Foot switch RS232-USB1.1 converter, polarization
filter, diffuser, protective glass.
The power supply for the system is provided by an electronic power supply
with wide range input (100V -15% to 240V +10%). Power cords suitable for use
in different countries are available as accessories.
