Overview
The X-Cite 120 Q illumination system uses a powerful 120 W lamp to deliver rich spectral excitation with a uniformly illuminated field of view that is superior to conventional mercury arc lamps. The proprietary Intelli-Lamp continually monitors lamp temperature and prevents hot strikes so that the lamp can provide more than 2,000 hours of life, greatly reducing operating costs. Pre-alignment of the lamp makes changing it a simple, one-step process. The X-Cite 120 Q system is ideally suited for routine assays and multi-user facilities and can be placed remotely to reduce vibration and heat at the microscope. |
Powerful 120 W lampThe powerful 120 W lamp used in the X-Cite 120 Q provides excitation intensity comparable to, or better than, conventional mercury arc lamps. As an added benefit, the richer spectrum excites more fluorophores. |
Long-life LampWith a 2,000-hour warranty and a typical lifetime of over 2,500 hours, the powerful 120 W X-Cite lamp has ten times the lifespan of a conventional mercury lamp, saving time and reducing operating costs. |
Pre-aligned and focused for easier installationThe days of difficult and cumbersome lamp changes and alignments are now gone. The X-Cite adaptor attaches easily onto an existing microscope light port. To change the bulb, simply remove the old one and click the new one in place. |
Heat and vibration reductionThe X-Cite unit connects to the microscope with a liquid light guide. Remote placement of the unit ensures that no heat or vibration is transferred to the microscope and allows optimization of valuable workspace. |
Hot-strike preventionHot strikes shorten lamp life and cause premature intensity degradation. The Intelli-Lamp continually monitors lamp temperature, preventing restrikes until the lamp cools to a 'safe-to-restart' state. |
