Lambda HPX Liquid Cooled LED Light Source 

The Lambda HPX represents the latest generation of liquid-cooled high-output LED light sources. Designed around a single 90W 4.25 mm LED die, the Lambda HPX provides light output comparable to a 200W xenon arc lamp. A quiet, vibration-free liquid cooling head (pre-filled at the factory) allows us to maintain the low junction temperatures required to reach the manufacturer’s projected minimum bulb life of 60,000 hours. (The HPX is expected to retain 70% of it’s light output after 60,000 hours.) The lightweight precision-machined LED head is designed to mount directly on the epi port of a microscope using an included microscope adapter (specify at time of order). This affords the maximum amount of light coupled directly to the scope, without the losses associated with a liquid light guide.

FEATURES

  • Pre-filled liquid cooling
  • Dimming via PWM or Current control
  • Lifetime > 50,000 hours
  • Front mounted connectors for ease of access
  • TTL and Analog controls
  • Integral Shuttering
  • White light and UV combination available

COMMON APPLICATIONS

  • Fluorescent microscopy
  • Optogenetics

Lambda HPX-L5 High Power LED Light Source with Liquid Lightguide

The Lambda HPX-L5 was created as a liquid light guide coupled version of the HPX, our newest high power LED light source. The liquid light guide allows for LED cooling via an internal heatsink with a whisper fan. This requires less maintenance than the liquid-cooled direct mount version. Designed around a single 90W 3 mm LED die, the Lambda HPX-L5 provides light output comparable to a 150W xenon arc lamp when using the same light guide. The Lambda HPX-L5 is optimized for coupling to an optional 5 mm liquid light guide, and off-the-shelf microscope adapter. The HPX is expected to retain 70% of it’s original light output after 60,000 hours.

FEATURES

  • Vibration-free coupling via liquid light guide
  • Dimming via PWM or Current control
  • Lifetime > 50,000 hours
  • Front mounted connectors for ease of access
  • TTL and Analog controls
  • Integral Shuttering
  • White light and UV combination available

COMMON APPLICATIONS

  • Fluorescent microscopy
  • Optogenetics

FEATURES

  • > 50,000 hour lifetime
  • < 25 µsecs ON-OFF time
  • TTL control (with polarity switch)
  • Very stable output
  • Compact stand-alone design
  • Easy installation

COMMON APPLICATIONS

  • Transmitted light
  • Phase Contrast
  • Differential Interference Contrast (DIC)

Lambda LS Stand-Alone Xenon Arc Lamp and Power Supply

The Lambda LS is a stand-alone illuminator consisting of a xenon-arc lamp, lamp housing, cold mirror and power supply in a single enclosure. The Lambda LS is designed to be used with a liquid light guide which transmits remarkably flat, intense, illumination to the optical train of the user’s microscope or other instrumentation. The lamp’s cabinet accommodates a standard Sutter Instrument filter wheel that slides easily in and out of a slot in the light path. If desired, a second filterwheel can be mounted on the outside of the cabinet. When used with appropriate adapters, the light guide output is compatible with most common microscope systems.

FEATURES

  • Xenon lamps provide light levels which exceed those of standard microscope fluorescence lamps
  • Equipped with a cold mirror to eliminate IR heating of down stream optical components
  • Compact stand-alone lamp housing/power supply enclosure
  • Pre-aligned bulb eliminates common focusing problems
  • Integrated hour meter for convenient monitoring of lamp life
  • Modular construction allows use of optional liquid light guide for flexible direction of light output
  • Easily accommodates Sutter Instrument filter wheels and SmartShutter® within the body of the lamp
  • Can be coupled via a liquid light guide to many standard microscopes – Nikon, Zeiss, Leica and Olympus
