Fibre Optic Light Source - KL 5120 - Kruess - Used Laboratory Equipment and New Lab Instrument Supplies, UK

Laboratory Fibre optic light sources offer unique design flexibility. The safety aspect of no heat or conducted electricity provides design opportunities not available with traditional lighting systems.
In common with many technological developments in lighting the use of Fibre Optic as a lighting tool has been fuelled by research and developments in other fields, in this instance rapid development in the use of Fibre Optics for Control and Communications in recent years. From early use in medical instruments including endoscopes, Fibre Optics came into more general use in lighting in the late 1970s when a principal new application was in traffic signs. In this application the facility of a remote light source, simple optical changeover in case of lamp failure and the possibility of multiple graphics in the same sign by using different patterns of harness gave this technology unique advantages. From these beginnings many applications have developed, initially the visible end of the fibre was the useful element, for example advertising signs and theatre star curtains, where the relative simplicity of limited animation provided a new dimension. From these early applications improving lamp technologies have led to the use of optical fibre as a light delivery system for everything from museum display cases to pub ceilings

To create an even cold light is the task of this cold light source. Brightness control without colour change, with automatic voltage switching 110-230V. Without fibre optic light pipe.
