89 North - The PhotoFluor
II High Power Metal Halide Fluorescence Light Source combines a
powerful metal halide lamp with a sputtered heat-blocking optic to deliver
excellent light output across the spectrum. The PhotoFluor II provides high output from 340 nm to 650 nm with enough power in the UV for strong DAPI or Hoechst imaging. It combines a powerful light engine with quiet operation and no vibration. The nature of the metal halide source eliminates the need for alignment and ensures long lamp life (in excess of 1500 hours). A DC power supply stabilizes lamp output over time for minimal fluctuation during time-sensitive experiments. Utilizing a 200w lamp and a 5mm core Liquid Light
Guide the Photfluor II provides superior performance unmatched in the
industry. With a 6 position motorized filter wheel and shutter
system that can be PC computer controlled. The system can utilize either a
5mm core LLG or 3mm core LLG in either 1.5m or 2m lengths. Microscope
adapters available for most systems please contact AIC for further
information. |

Lumencor Light Engines - The SOLA-SM light engine™
is a high performance illumination source that’s as easy to operate as the light switch in your hallway. Powerful, solid state sources produce an intense spectrum of light from 380 to 680 nm, providing bright illumination of the visible wavelengths you need with no unwanted UV or Near IR to compromise your experiment.
Like all Lumencor light engines, the SOLA SM is extremely stable with less than 2% drift over 24 hours of continuous operation. Warmup time is essentially instantaneous, with stabilized output achieved in 1 second with the flip of a switch or a tap of the foot-pedal.
Simplicity of operation and stable, long-term use were primary goals of the SOLA SM light engine design. This is an arc lamp replacement that boasts all the advantages of solid-state sources. Why would anyone use an arc lamp when the SOLA SM produces more light with less power, requires no maintenance, generates very little heat and is highly efficient in a compact design? The SOLA SM light engine is an economical choice because bulbs don’t need to be replaced, power consumption is low and the working lifetime of the product far exceeds that of a lamp.
Included with the SOLA SM is a foot-pedal switch, power cord and a 3 mm diameter liquid light guide. Not included are the dangerous doses of mercury and other hazardous materials found in metal halide and mercury bulbs which pollute our air, land and water. |

Lumencor Light Engines - The SOLA light engine™ from Lumencor offers a true arc lamp replacement with the release of the SOLA Light Engine. The SOLA produces continuous white light from 380 to 680 nm and is suitable for imaging all the most common fluorophores and fluorescent proteins. SOLA offers the end user an affordable solid state alternative as an arc lamp replacement. The SOLA light engine can be controlled by every microscopy software in the marketplace. It offers unprecedented access to solid state illumination at a price comparable to most metal halide light sources used in a host of life science equipment including fluorescence microscopes.
Lumencor preserves performance in the form of powerful, cool, stable, robust, UV- and IR-free light and now allows the user simple integration with existing filter cubes and hardware configurations. This additional flexibility allows individual users, core facilities and OEMs a superior solid state excitation subsystem. Power exceeds most spectral bands of the arc lamps while cost and wavelength range are on par with traditional arc lamps.
The Microscopist will never again have to worry about arc lamp alignment, installation and replacement, you can just focus on the sample! The expected lifetime of the SOLA is greater than 20,000 hours. Short warm-up time and superior stability mean these are all usable hours with highly reproducible output power. Units ship with a three year warranty covering any failures with the light engine including parts and labor.
The SOLA can be integrated with high end cameras. In so doing, they enable light blanking during frame readout. This prolongs sample life and minimizes photobleaching during sample illumination. |

applications such as Pathology where precision color is critical.
Utilizing 6 vector color processing and frame memory for continuous
integration, with high sensitivity makes this camera an ideal choice for
microscopy and other imaging applications. Compatible with standard
frame grabbers from a variety of manufactures, contact AIC for further information. |

VisTek -
The VIP320 and VIP3200 Series Tabletop Vibration Isolation Platforms are passive,
mechanical and robust. They do not require compressed air, or complicated
algorithms associated with semi or fully active, piezzo electric vibration
control systems. The products are small, efficient and maintenance free while maintaining
complete system integrity. The VIP300 Series consists of standard,
rectangular shaped platforms with 3 or 4 VIB320 bearings for isolating
microscopes and other sensitive instruments. The VIP3200 Series are custom
shaped vibration isolation platforms designed for a specific microscope brand
and model number. All the products provide Exceptional
six degrees-of-freedom isolation. Tangential, and secant compliance. and
Fast settling times. The Horizontal Isolation provided by a horizontal,
non-linear spring results in isolation that is constant and independent of the
frequency and amplitude of the input vibrations. As a result, the horizontal
spring filter whites out or filters out a broad band of input frequencies and
insures a constant level of vibration transmission reduction. With Vertical
Isolation accomplished via Broadband filtering with substantially non-linear
spring filters. |
