High-Frequency Fluorescent Ring Illuminators

High-Frequency Fluorescent Ring Illuminators
Technilight — TLC7 and TLC8

UNIQUE ADJUSTABLE INTENSITY CIRCUIT

All TLC7/ TLC8 TechniLight fluorescent ring illuminators operate at high frequency. By operating at high frequency, these lights remove problems associated with high-speed imaging. Images taken under these lights are very uniform, given the uniformity of the lighting created by the high-frequency light. All TLC7 TechniLight fluorescent ring illuminators contain a dimming circuit that enables you to vary the intensity without affecting the color temperature. Unlike other dimming units in the marketplace, the TLC7’s unique microprocessor-controlled circuit automatically adjusts the internal bulb filament heaters to prevent a loss in bulb life when operating at low intensity.

COMMON USES

High-frequency fluorescent ring illuminators are commonly used when a highly stable even and diffuse daylight source is required.

Lighting for machine vision, measuring microscopes, video microscopes, digital imaging and photography
Applications in which rapid shutter speeds are being used or in which video framegrabber cards are in use
UV curing in electronics, medical and other industrial applications
