100% of the damaging retinal blue light. The LM4X series of LED equipment in order to prevent permanent hearing loss if exposure is in excess of the limits.
This guide provides the following resources: • A general overview of the LM4X features. • A general overview of the LM4X-DPS features. • Hookup diagrams depicting some of the more common setups.
Optical measurement techniques require a sufficiently energetic, low noise, stable illumination source if quality data is to be acquired. Any variation in output illumination from the excitation source will cause measurement errors. ISSI LED arrays contain proprietary optical and electrical filtering to achieve very stable, narrow-band illumination.
LM4X/LMX-DPS User Manual Description & Specifications The LM4X 4-inch, air-cooled LEDs provide a significant increase in output power needed in large test facilities or for fast pressure sensitive paint measurements. Large test sections require more excitation light because the model is further from the data acquisition system and fast PSP systems require significantly shorter camera exposure times.

LM4X housing. Input pressure to these cooling ports should be low, just above ambient pressure. To connect the nut and ferrule to the blue cooling air lines, fully insert the open end of the air line into the open hole in the nut.
Air Vents A series of vent holes are located around the perimeter of the LM4X LED module section. This allows transfer from the heat sink to help to cool the LEDs as air is drawn in from the cooling fans or cooling air supply. Keep these vent holes clear to avoid the unit from overheating.
LM4X/LMX-DPS User Manual The driver section of the LM4X has a connection for power input as well as a BNC connection for external trigger input. With a trigger input connected to the BNC connection, the LED will mirror the incoming pulse width and frequency.
Cooling Air Supply Line AC Power AC input power to the LM4X-DPS is provided via the power inlet connector on the front panel. A power cable has been provided. Do not substitute the provided cable. If you require a replacement cable, please consult the manufacturer.
Fuse AC power for the LM4X-DPS is current limited by a fuse. The fuse is integrated into the power input module. If you believe the fuse needs to be replaced due to suspected fault with the hardware, please consult the manufacturer.
LM4X/LMX-DPS User Manual LED Power Cable A power cable to connect the LM4X to the dual power supply is supplied with each LED module. UM4X-10 Power Cable Each LM4X connects to the LM4X-DPS via this power cable with screw-and-lock connector on each end.
