Lumencor SOLA SM II

The SOLA SM light engine is a high performance illumination source that’s as easy to operate as the light switch in your hallway. Powerful, solid state sources produce an intense spectrum of light from 380 to 680 nm, providing bright illumination of the visible wavelengths you need with no unwanted UV or Near IR to compromise your experiment. Like all Lumencor light engines, the SOLA SM is extremely stable with less than 2% drift over 24 hours of continuous operation. Warmup time is essentially instantaneous, with stabilized output achieved in 1 second with the flip of a switch or a tap of the foot-pedal. Simplicity of operation and stable, long-term use were primary goals of the SOLA SM light engine design. This is an arc lamp replacement that boasts all the advantages of solid-state sources. Why would anyone use an arc lamp when the SOLA SM produces more light with less power, requires no maintenance, generates very little heat and is highly efficient in a compact design? The SOLA SM light engine is an economical choice because bulbs don’t need to be replaced, power consumption is low and the working lifetime of the product far exceeds that of a lamp. Included with the SOLA SM is a foot-pedal switch, power cord and a 3 mm diameter liquid light guide. Not included are the dangerous doses of mercury and other hazardous materials found in metal halide and mercury bulbs which pollute our air, land and water. While SOLA SM is very simple to operate, be assured it is also very powerful. Expect 3-4 watts of visible light pumped through the light guide, giving ample intensity for the most demanding microscope applications.
