LED illumination units for fluorescence, CoolLED pE-200 and pE-300

These LED illuminators are designed to replace high pressure mercury lamps used on fluorescence microscopes. They can be specified with two or three LED wavelength combinations, respectively. No mercury, instant on/off, no bulb changing, no downtime, no warm up, no unwanted UV and reduced photobleaching. You can also benefit from better contrast for sharper images and seeing deeper into cells. They are suitable for routine screening, tissue culture, diagnostics, confocal and clinical.

Intensity control: 0 to 100% in 1% increments (independent for each LED wavelength)
Fast switching: using TTL control
Environmentally friendly: mercury free, so no harzardous materials and no disposal issues
Long lifetime: minimum of 10000 hours without a bulb change
Quiet operation: 22 dB(A) with less heat generated than conventional mercury vapour lamps

: Each unit comprises an LED illumination unit (which can be fitted directly to the epi-fluorescence attachment of the relevant microscope) control pod with BNC input for TTL trigger, universal power supply. Filter blocks for specific fluorophores are required but not supplied, please contact your local Avantor sales office for details.
