Product description

High-efficiency 60W LED microscopy light source with 5400K color temp and 850 lm output for stereo microscopy.

The Schott A20990-A08600 MC-LS Microscopy LED Light Source features a high-efficiency LED engine delivering a stable light output of up to 850 lumens at a constant 5400 K color temperature, optimized for stereo microscopy, material science imaging, and machine vision applications. Its slim and robust metal housing fits ring lights with 47mm to 62mm outer diameters, offering compatibility with the SCHOTT ColdVision series fiber optic light guides, essential for homogeneous illumination in diverse biotechnology and clinical diagnostics workflows.

Key technical features include:

  • Long-life LED light engine with 50,000 maintenance-free operating hours, reducing downtime and operational costs critical in bioprocessing and molecular diagnostics environments.
  • Continuous brightness adjustment from 0 to 100% via potentiometer or external digital control through integrated RS232, USB, and 9-pin analog interfaces, facilitating automated operation and integration with application software for live-cell imaging and fluorescence analysis.
  • Power-efficient operation at just 60 watts with universal input power supply (100-240 VAC, 50/60 Hz), enabling use in various laboratory settings.
  • High mechanical resistance to vibration and shock ensures durability in biopharmaceutical production pipelines and industrial microscopy setups.
  • Compact dimensions (158 mm × 145 mm × 98 mm) and quiet operation ensured by an ergonomic internal fan enhance suitability for crowded laboratory benches.
  • ETL approved and RoHS compliant, meeting industry safety and environmental standards.

This LED light source is widely adopted in synthetic biology research and biomedical engineering for its stable, high-quality illumination that surpasses traditional halogen sources by over 10% output, crucial for precise imaging in gene editing workflows and molecular cloning protocols. The design supports seamless replacement of previous models (ACE and DCR), making it ideal for upgrading existing microscopy illumination systems with modern, digitally controllable, and energy-efficient technology.

Why Questpair exists

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.

Frequently asked questions

How long does laboratory equipment typically last?

With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.

Can I get service for older equipment?

Often, yes. Verified suppliers frequently work with service partners converting the instrument. If applicable, we can list servicing options alongside the offer.

Where can I buy parts?

Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.

What is the typical lead time for refurbished equipment?

Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.

Does laboratory equipment ship internationally?

We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
