UV LED Light Sources provide exceptional coupling efficiency between UV and VIS LEDs and single optical fibers. The result is a powerful source of light for fluorescence, spectroscopy or general fiber illumination applications.

Innovative electronics drive the LEDs with a stable high current and allows them to be run at even higher peak currents when operated in the external triggered mode. The user can select continuous, externally triggered or OFF from a switch on the front. A separate switch allows you to adjust the power level. All functions can also be accessed through a 15 pin interface connector. An optional USB controller can be used to customize the settings including the drive current, pulse width and pulse frequency.  LLS units come as single LED sources as shown above, and also 4 channel and 8 channel units.

UV LEDS are available at nearly every 5nm increment in wavelength from 250nm to 360nm and high power LEDS at selected wavelengths from 365 to 637nm.

• All LED modules will work in the LLS single channel source or the MCLS 4 channel source. Users can buy any wavelength LED module to change the wavelength of their system. Onboard logic on the MLA assembly circuit card sets the proper voltage and current in the power supply
• 2 uW - 1.5 mW power coupled into a single 600 micron fiber in CW mode. The UV LEDS (360 nm and lower) are internally coupled to a 600 um fiber, so any other size used will result in a loss of energy. The high power LEDS (365nm and higher) will work with any size fiber. Larger diamters and larger na fibers will collect lore power from those LEDS.
• 30 mA max drive current CW for the UV LEDS 
• 200 mA max drive current pulsed mode
• 1% max duty cycle in pulsed mode
