GCS-Series High-power Lightguide-coupled LED Light Sources
Product information "GCS-Series High-power Lightguide-coupled LED Light Sources"
LED Module; 340-980 nm; Typical Radiant Flux 12-2,200 mW; Iop 0.35-18 A; Vop 1.4-15.5 V
Mightex’s GCS-Series of high-power lightguide-coupled LED light sources are designed for high-efficiency coupling of LED light into a liquid lightguide (LLG) or a fiber optic bundle. Virtually all lightguides with core diameters ranging from 3 to 8 mm can be used with the GCS-Series light sources. Please note that lightguides and adapters as well as lightguide collimators are sold separately.
GCS-Series lightguide-coupled LED light sources also feature a locking electrical connector for secured connection. The devices are designed as a universal light source for general lab use and OEM applications. Their one-piece machined aluminium alloy housing features integrated heatsinks and multiple mounting holes.
Multi-chip LED emitters have been added to the product portfolio (Type-B). Some of these 7 to 15 W LEDs have a total optical power exceeding 1 W, quadrupling the power of a single-chip LED (Type-A). Models with higher powers (i.e. Type-B with 7 W and higher) feature a cooling fan and have a different form factor compared to other models. Please examine the installation drawings in the downloadable datasheet carefully. Power supply for the cooling fan is included in the price of the LED light sources.
All Mightex LED controllers such as software-controlled LED controllers like the SLC-Series , manual LED controllers like the SLA-Series or other LED drivers and current sources can be used to drive the GCS-Series light sources.
