Sutter Instrument introduces the Lambda XL, a
stable, broad spectrum, highly stable light source (1%
peak-to-peak fluctuations).
The
connection to the microscope is made through a light
guide, which assures output uniformity in the field of
view. Two light guide options are available, one
optimized for the near UV-visible and the other for
the visible-near IR regions.
The
output at the end of the light guide is similar
to that of Sutter´s popular 300W Lambda LS
xenon arc light source. The lamp module is expected to
last more than 10.000 hrs and maintain at least 50% of
the original intensity.
The
compact, stand-alone cabinet design contains the bulb,
lamp housing, power supply, and optics in a single
enclosure. The new design includes also a filter wheel
and SmartShutterTM driver,
making it a versatile choice for fluorescence imaging
applications. the Sutter filter wheel with SmartShutterTM
or the stand alone SmartShutterTM
can be accomodated within the body of the Lamda
XL.
The
light intensity can be adjusted to different levels of
attenuation.When the optional filter wheel is used,
each filter positions can be associated with its own
programmable attenuation level, selected every time
the filter is called*.
Mounting
adapters for Nikon, Olympus, Zeiss and Leica
microscopes are available.
