Description
Cold light source LED8 is a laboratory illumination unit delivering 110 W output at a colour temperature of 6900 K with a colour rendering index (CRI) of 75. Intended for optical instruments and bench microscopy or inspection tasks, it provides bright, cool illumination that limits unwanted heat transfer to samples and optics compared with conventional halogen sources. The 6900 K daylight-balanced spectrum supports clear visual assessment of specimens, materials, and instrument fields where neutral white light is preferred. Offered as one complete unit from manufacturer Starlight Opto-Elect, the LED8 fits laboratory environments that require stable cold light for routine observation and documentation. With a unit weight of 2,300 kg, the source is suitable for fixed bench placement beside microscopes, stereo systems, or other optical setups. Categories for cold light sources and optical instruments highlight its role as dedicated labware rather than general lighting. Laboratories seeking consistent LED-based cold illumination for inspection and optical work will find the stated power, colour temperature, and CRI values clearly defined for straightforward instrument matching.

Questions about Cold light source LED8, 110 W, 6900 K, CRI 75, 1 pc
What is this article?
Cold light source LED8, 110 W, 6900 K, CRI 75, 1 pc is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Starlight Opto-Elect for laboratory use. It sits in Cold light sources & lighting, inside Microscopy & histology, in Lab instruments.
A cold light keeps the heat of the lamp away from a living or a melting specimen, usually by a fibre light guide. It is the illuminator for a stereo microscope. Colour temperature matters when the image is photographed. A hot lamp over a dissection dries the sample.
A light microscope forms an image with glass lenses and transmitted or reflected light. A stereo microscope is the lower-magnification instrument for dissecting and for looking at a surface. Fluorescence needs a light source and filters matched to the dye. Histology is the preparation that makes a tissue readable: fixation, a cassette, a section, a stain. The objective's magnification and numerical aperture decide the resolution. The slide and the cover glass decide whether the section sits in the focal plane. Stains and dyes as substances are identified on PubChem. Papers on the methods are on PubMed.
