LED Systems Overview

Product catalog summary

Overview: This document provides a detailed comparison of various X-Cite LED systems, highlighting their specifications, features, and applications. The systems discussed include X-Cite mini+, X-Cite XYLIS II, X-Cite 110LED, X-Cite TETREM, X-Cite NOVEM, and X-Cite XLED1.

Specifications:

LED Type and Wavelength Range: The systems offer broadband and independent wavelength options, with ranges from 340 nm to 800 nm.
LED Warranty: Most systems have a warranty of 25,000 hours, except for X-Cite mini+ and XLED1, which offer 20,000 hours.
Intensity Control: All systems provide 1% increment control, with XLED1 offering finer 0.1% increments.
Control Options: Manual control is available via speedDIAL or smartDIAL™, with PC control supported across all models.
Shutter Speed: Ranges from 1 ms USB to 10 µs TTL, depending on the model.

Applications:

Suitable for a variety of imaging applications, including live cell imaging, F.I.S.H., and optogenetics.
Specific models support fast-switching LED channels and are compatible with various fluorescence dyes like DAPI, FITC, TRITC, and Cy5.

Additional Features:

Some models include UV off mode, favorite intensity presets, and whisper-quiet operation.
Field-replaceable, modular LED design and optional filter holders are available.

Notes:

Measurements for LLG coupled systems were obtained with a 3mm x 1.5m Liquid Light Guide.
Light coupling efficiency is dependent on microscope optics and filters.
Output levels may vary between individual units.
