LED fiber optic cold light source with 80 lm, 5600K neutral white, 50,000h life, ideal for microscopy and industrial inspection.
The Schott KL300 LED Fiber Optic Light Source Illuminator (120.300) delivers cold, stable illumination leveraging high-efficiency LED technology combined with fiber optic light guides, making it essential for biotechnology, biomedical engineering, and industrial microscopy applications. Designed for compatibility with the KL 200 series fiber optic light guides, it facilitates *standard illumination techniques* typically required in quality control, molecular diagnostics, and electronic assembly inspections.
Key technical specifications include:
This compact, ergonomic illuminator provides ripple-free light ideal for sensitive *digital imaging* and fluorescence-based assays widely used in synthetic biology and molecular cloning workflows. Its brightness equivalence to a 30W halogen source suits routine stereo microscopy, including bioprocessing inspection setups, without generating excessive heat that could disrupt biological samples.
The KL300 LED is particularly valuable in research fields requiring stable and precise illumination such as *live-cell imaging*, *biomanufacturing quality control*, and *clinical diagnostics*, where consistent light quality and low maintenance are critical. Its ability to interface seamlessly with a broad range of fiber optic light guides makes it a versatile solution in neuroscience, biotechnology, and bioengineering laboratories.
For optimized performance and to select appropriate lighting components tailored to specific biotechnological or industrial applications, Schott technical support is available to guide users toward configuration best suited for advanced microscopy and inspection workflows.
Lab equipment markets are fragmented. Buyers spend weeks calling distributors, comparing quotes, and verifying supplier reliability. Sellers struggle to reach global research labs.
We built Questpair to fix this. Every supplier on the platform is verified before listing. Every quote you receive comes from a real, vetted seller. AI prepares your case in minutes, then a real specialist takes over.
We're an independent team based in The Netherlands, working with research labs and procurement teams across Europe and worldwide.
With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.
Yes. Every verified supplier states which service partners cover the instrument, and we list that alongside the offer.
Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.
Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.
We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
Tell us what you need and a scientist finds it for you, usually within the hour.
