Wide Selection of Fluorescent Light Sources | ||||
The PX43 FS6 supports not only traditional mercury fluorescent lamps, but also Motic LED fluorescent lamps, LUMOS3, and metal halide fluorescent lamps, LUMOS X.
▶ LUMOS3: No need to warm up, average life up to 20,000h. Low phototoxicity, friendly to weak fluorescence observation. Each channel is independently controlled and can automatically match the light source when switching filters.
▶ LUMOS X: Average life up to 3000h, only 90s warm-up, adjustable light intensity. The light source status and cumulative hours of use can be displayed, making it easy for the user to check the use of the light source.
