The new Leica-FLRL is especially designed for illumination tasks where a very uniform and
even light is required, like for microscopy or image processing. These, and the following
qualities, make the FLRL the ideal illumination system for a wide range of applications:
•
Constant colour temperature 5.500 K
•
Ripple- and flicker-free illumination by high-frequent current supply (25 kHz)
•
2-step-brightness control without variation of colour temperature
•
Increased lamp-life by a new smooth lamp ignition
•
360° – shadow free illumination
•
Unique ESD-safe model
•
Sound- and vibration-free operation
•
Universal mounting system for objectives up to 66 mm diameter
•
Easy and tool-free lamp change
•
Independent stand-alone operation possible
•
“Cold light”
•
Lamp-housing with anti-static qualities
The Illumination system consists of the following basic elements:
•
Fluorencence-ringlight with control unit
•
Protection granting
•
Wall mount AC adapter

The system

The components
Fluorescence ringlight
The ringlamp provides the illumination area with bright, uniform and homogenous
light. A smooth ignition startup helps lengthen the service lifetime of the lamp.
The housing is not thermal conducting and is made of anti-static material which
adds to the ESD qualities. The simple and gentle mounting-system is adaptable for
objective-diameters up to 66 mm and can be fitted with custom-made adapters
for special applications.
Protection grating
The grating is an optional feature of the Leica fluorescence light to prevent
accidental contact of the bulb by the user. Contact between the operator and the
bulb could result in an unwanted static discharge, which could damage materials
sensitive to ESD.
The metal fence is conductive and connects to a special ESD socket to prevent
electro-static discharge.
Control unit
The control unit supplies the ringlight with a high frequency current (25 kHz) which
is responsible for the flicker-free and homogenous light of the fluorescence ringlight. The system operates vibration- and noise free and can be supplied with a
portable battery power supply. The control box has a on/off switch, a two level
brightness switch and an ESD socket.
Goose neck
The goose neck can be connected directly to a microscope or – in combination
with the base plate – the system can be run in stand-alone mode.
