Portable digital microscope is a complete system
Versatile, high resolution digital microscope is a complete system based around a 2.3 megapixel digital camera, with a compact flash memory card and images are viewed on an integrated 2in LCD monitor.
Using their patent pending technology, they are the most uniform backlights on the market and come in an ultra slim housing only 8.5mm thick.
Phlox was developed in France for the visual communications market, but applications in machine vision, medical and industrial lighting quickly became apparent.
Rated to IP-65 the backlights are suitable for use in harsh environments.
The technology is based around the technique of engraving mathematically calculated micro prisms in the PMMA.
The LEDs are then precisely positioned to edge-light the material.
A combination of these two techniques greatly enhanced the light intensity and uniformity.
The uniformity can be up to +/-3% and luminance up to 30 000 cd/m2 on custom products.
Backlights using red LEDs have a lifetime of 100,000 hours and the white LED 50,000 hours.
Further advantages of this technology are low power consumption, less than 500mA, and heat free operation which increases lifetime.
Custom models can be made in any size required.
These backlights out perform fibre optic and standard LED matrix backlights in terms of uniformity, intensity, thickness and lifetime. Request free introductory details about products from Lambda Photometrics ...
