Lumen Dynamics Group Inc. is certified under the globally recognized ISO 9001 Quality Management System and the ISO 14001 Environmental Management System. Our global customers can trust that Lumen Dynamics strives to be the best possible supplier in all aspects of our business.
The X-Cite® Optical Power Measurement System includes both the X-Cite® XR2100 Power Meter and the X-Cite® XP750 Objective Plane Power Sensor. Designed for measuring optical power in watts at the specimen level, the X-Cite® XP750 has a low, sleek profile that fits on the microscope stage and offers the versatility of measuring power output from an X-Cite® illuminator or any other epi-fluorescence light source.
» Why do I need an X-Cite® Optical Power Measurement System?The X-Cite® XR2100 and X-Cite® XP750 allow you to measure the optical power at the specimen level enabling consistent and repeatable illumination throughout research experiments, and also assist in equipment set-up and troubleshooting. With a PC interface and "Power Snapshot" tool, data can be easily stored electronically for complete experiment records.
For the ultimate in repeatability, the X-Cite® XR2100 will calibrate the X-Cite® exacte illuminator using power data from either the light guide input port or the X-Cite® XP750 at the objective plane.
