Tigard, Oregon – Orled’s new high-intensity ring light Model RL16LQX Xsight with patented laser crosshair system streamlines the process of locating and identifying small features in a microscope's field-of-view. Designed as an auxiliary light accessory for inspection microscopes, the ring light is useful for circuit board rework and inspection, and a choice for use in electronics, medical, and industrial manufacturing. When used with a polarizing film and analyzer filter it allows viewing highly reflective specimens such as circuit boards and electronics.
The unit includes an LED ring light with adjustable quadrant illumination, two targeting lasers, and a control unit for attenuating the lasers and LED lighting array.
The two targeting lasers emit fans of light that create a bright crosshair pattern on the microscope stage. A feature placed at the crosshair intersection using the naked eye can be immediately identified when looking through the microscope. Conversely, a feature that is observed through the scope can be immediately located by the naked eye. The lasers will then extinguish to allow for closer observation.
The sealed body of the ring light contains 16 high output LEDs arranged in quadrant zones. The quadrants can be toggled on and off individually to provide smooth, even illumination or to create and control shadows to define surface details. The ring light provides 85,000 lux at a working distance of 3". The detachable control unit has a touchpad that toggles power to the quadrants and crosshairs. A brightness control provides eight steps of illumination intensity to the quadrant’s LEDs.
The ring light can be affixed to a microscope diameter from 3.0" to 2.1"; smaller diameters can be accommodated using custom screws. The ring light body is sealed, with an IP 65 rating, and complies with CE standards for European Community use.
