Schott KL1600 Fiber-Optic LED Light Source Illuminator for Microscopy
Product Description
The Schott KL1600 Fiber-Optic LED Light Source Illuminator is engineered for precise and efficient illumination in microscopy and industrial life science applications. Utilizing a multiple-chip white LED light engine, this illuminator provides 680 lumens brightness at the end of a flexible 9 mm diameter fiber optic light guide, equating to the luminous intensity of a 150W halogen cold light source while consuming less than 40 watts of electrical power. Its cold light technology minimizes heat transfer, making it suitable for sensitive biological samples and live-cell imaging.
Key technical features include:
- Continuous dimming capability from 0 to 100%, allowing precise light intensity control critical in fluorescence analysis and molecular diagnostics.
- A compact, ergonomically designed housing with an integrated handle and iron ballast ensures stability when used with gooseneck fiber optic light guides.
- An ultra low-noise fan facilitates optimized heat management with near-silent operation, supporting extended use in laboratory and clinical environments.
- Includes a filter slider with two positions, enabling insertion of optical filters without light source disassembly.
- Compatible with a broad range of fiber optic light guides and accessories from the KL 1500 series, including single and dual gooseneck ring lights and flexible bundles, customizable for various microscopy needs.
Additional advantages:
- Remarkably long LED lifespan of at least 50,000 hours reduces maintenance and downtime costs, essential for continuous bioprocessing and biomanufacturing workflows.
- Energy consumption is approximately 80% lower than traditional halogen light sources, aligning with sustainable laboratory operations and green technology initiatives.
- The high-intensity, ripple-free DC illumination enables stable light output, crucial for reproducible imaging in synthetic biology and molecular cloning workflows.
Widely adopted in biotechnology and clinical diagnostics, the Schott KL1600 fiber-optic LED illuminator is a versatile, reliable choice for researchers requiring precise, high-intensity light sources in microscopy, fluorescence analysis, and biomedical engineering applications. Its modular compatibility and energy efficiency make it a critical component in contemporary molecular biology and neuroimaging laboratories.
