AvaLight-LED Light sources for fluorescence applications



The AvaLight-LED light sources are compact, low-cost Light Emitting Diodes that produce continuous or pulsed spectral output at different wavelengths for high sensitivity fluorescence measurements. The Avalight-LED470-p14 is specially designed to be used with the Fiber Optic Oxygen Sensor and the AvaSpec-2048 and supported from AvaSoft-Oxy (see section Applications, page 126).

All AvaLight-LED light sources are recommended for fluorescence applications, where the excitation wavelength can be chosen from the following table.

New is the CUV-LED, where the LED is built into an adapter that fits in a standard cuvette holder and connects through the lamp electronics (AvaLight-LED-CON) through an electrical cable. This setup is ideal for fluorescence applications.

Other fluorescence accessories and probes, such as the CUV-DA, CUV-FL/ CUV-ALL cuvette holders and the FCR-UV200/600 fluorescence probe can be found elsewhere in this catalog. A typical application setup for fluorescence is depicted at the end of this catalog, page 128.

The AvaLight-LED has an SMA 905 connector for coupling to fiber optics, a PS-12V/1.0A power supply should be ordered with the unit.

The AvaLight-LED can be used as a DC source or pulsed with a programmable Pulse Width Modulation (PWM), supplied by the AvaSpec-USB2 spectrometers´output (IC-DB26-2 needed).
