Leica - Stereo Microscopes - LED Illumination

Leica LED5000 NVI

The Leica LED5000 NVI is extremely high-performance thanks to its two integrated high-output LEDs. The light is generated nearly parallel to the microscope's beam path and is thereby optimally aligned with the focal plane. This makes it particularly good for checking deep holes and bores.

The optional polarization set enables effective verification of high-gloss samples. The integrated filter insert makes it possible to adjust the light color to the user's habits. This means the light characteristic of a halogen light source can be produced.

If you are working with a high-performance stereo microscope with high-magnification objectives (magnification of 1.6x or 2.0x), the illuminator provides excellent illumination at the smallest working distances.

Key features

• Extremely high-performance LEDs: 2 high-output LEDs are extremely high-performance and effectively illuminate deep holes and bores. Perfectly for objectives with long working distances.
• Compact, well-integrated design: The integrated control element and compact design do not take up any more space on the work table.
• For high-performance stereo microscopes: For high-performance stereo microscopes, the Leica LED5000 NVI enables illumination of the specimen at very low working distances.
• Polarization set: With the optionally available polarization set, you can minimize reflections on metallic surfaces, which increases the efficiency during routine inspections.
• Efficient quality control: Excellent, high-performance illumination for standardized quality control processes.
• Highest modularity: The Leica LED5000 NVI can be combined with other illumination components and can be used flexibly.

Leica LED3000 DI

To document fissured samples with many corners, edges and recesses, you need a diffuse light source. Its light characteristic reduces shadows and does well at illuminating the digital images everywhere.

The diffuse illuminators of the LED illuminator series enable uniform illumination without bothersome shadow effects. They are particularly suited for documenting samples that are difficult to illuminate.

The illumination screen distributes light in all directions and produces a uniform light. Mounting it on a gooseneck gives you increased accessibility to the specimen. The flexible solution is ideally suited as a supplement for other illuminators and can simply be swung out of the way when not in use. The control element is mounted on a second gooseneck and can be easily positioned as the user desires.

Key features

• Light characteristic: 36 high-output LEDs produce bright, uniform light.
• Flexible control element: The control element on the gooseneck can be positioned wherever it is needed – always at the right spot.
• Perfectly combinable: The modularity of the LED3000 DI means it can be easily and flexibly combined with other illuminators.
• Diffuse light: The bright, matte interior of the illumination screen ensures the greatest possible absence of shadows in the illumination – the best prerequisite for documenting quickly.
