New blue light source provides a unique combination of convenience, cost-effectiveness, stability and time savings to both scientists and OEMs
Watertown, MA – Optical Tools Corporation today announced the release of the new LEDS1020, an instrument-grade blue LED light source, bringing a unique combination of convenience, cost-effectiveness, stability and time savings to both scientists and OEMs.
The LEDS1020 is a zero warm-up time, 470-nm LED light source stabilized to 500 ppm/degC. The device features adjustable CW output intensity via a built-in trimmer potentiometer, as well as a female threaded cavity for housing 1-inch or 25-mm optics. The rugged aluminum package can be easily integrated into breadboards, microscopy setups, or OEM devices using a standard wall adapter. Other wavelength and modulation options are also available.
“In a lab setting, the ease of use means faster experiments and less time waiting for reproducible results,” said Stephen Tobin, President of Optical Tools. “Warm-up time is essentially zero, which translates to faster instrument operation in the field, and the stability allows engineers to consider more economical single beam designs instead of double beam.”
