The pE-4000 sets the standard as the universal Illumination System for fluorescence microscopy. The system has 16 selectable LED wavelengths across four channels that can be finely controlled and matched to the filters and fluorophores of almost any microscope, making it the broadest and most versatile illumination system available.
The CoolLED pE-4000 benefits from our award winning sustainable Green technology and delivers enhanced irradiance at the sample plane with a significant reduction in energy consumption, and is supplied with a 36 month warranty.
pE-4000 LED Illumination System
Technical Specification
The system comprises a pE-4000 Light Source, Control Pod, liquid light guide, Universal Collimator and Power Supply.
Control
Manual:
Dual function remote manual control pod for White mode or Advanced modeRemote:
Via USB for independent on/off and irradiance control of each channel. Triggering speed approximately 10-20 ms
Via 4 TTL inputs for independent on/off control of each channel. Triggering speed <20 µs
Via single TTL for on/off control of manual or software selected channels
Via 4 analogue inputs 0-10 V, 0-300 kHz for dynamic control of irradiance from external analogue signalsSync Out:
4 TTL outputs for each channel – active high 1 TTL output for any channel – active highProgrammable interface:
4 TTL outputs for on/off control of peripherals (transmitted illuminators, stages etc.) 4 analogue outputs for irradiance control of peripherals (can be programmed to mirror LED irradiance levels for channel control) 0-10 V full scale.Function Generator:
Internally generated sine, pulse and ramps for each channel programmed via control pod.Connectivity:
USB (B type) for PC connection. All other TTL and Analogue inputs/outputs via 25-way ‘D-type’ female connector (optional rear mounting pE-Expansion Box available for BNC connectivity).Imaging Software:
Recognised under common software e.g. Micromanager, MetaMorph, cellSens, NIS Elements, etc. see Imaging SoftwareChoosing configurations
The pE-4000 can be configured to deliver light to the microscope via liquid light guide or fibre. Liquid light guides can be used in conjunction with CoolLED’s pE-Universal Collimator which can accept a microscope adaptor from CoolLED’s extensive range. Find out more here.
