Description
The SPECTRA X Light Engine provides six independently controllable, tunable light sources spanning the visible spectrum from 360–780 nm. Each SPECTRA X Light Engine comes equipped with a set of eight optical bandpass filters, providing the capacity to refine and tune the source outputs to meet evolving experimental requirements. The filters are user-exchangeable and are installed in removable paddles. The process of replacing one excitation filter with another in the SPECTRA X is as straightforward as it is in a filter wheel. On the other hand, the color switching speed delivered by the SPECTRA X (0.1 ms) is vastly superior to that of a filter wheel (50 ms). In live cell microscopy applications where milliseconds are critical, this can be a decisive advantage. The SPECTRA X now features an advanced control system built around an onboard microprocessor which provides advanced control and monitoring functions in addition to basic control functions of light source selection, on/off switching and output intensity adjustment.
