16pcs Polarized LED Ring Lights for Microscope AM-16-Polarized

The AM-16-Polarized is a set of 16 polarized LED ring lights designed for microscope illumination.

Product Overview

The AM-16-Polarized is a set of 16 polarized LED ring lights designed for microscope illumination. Each light operates at DC24V/500mA with a constant voltage drive, providing a white light output with a rated lifetime of approximately 20,000 hours. The ring lights are mounted on a 90mm outer diameter frame with a 35mm inner diameter and a height of 33mm, offering a working distance range of 40mm to 120mm. They are intended for use with microscopes requiring uniform, glare-free illumination for polarizing and reflective surface inspection.

Key Benefits

  • 16 individual polarized LEDs provide even, glare-free illumination across the field of view
  • Constant voltage drive at DC24V/500mA ensures stable light output without flicker
  • White light color improves contrast and detail visibility on reflective surfaces
  • 20,000-hour rated lifetime reduces replacement frequency and maintenance cost
  • Working distance range of 40mm to 120mm accommodates various microscope head and sample heights
  • Compact 90mm O.D. x 35mm I.D. x 33mm H design fits standard microscope mounting interfaces
  • Ring light configuration eliminates shadows and hotspots from direct overhead illumination

Application Scenarios

  • Inspection of polished metal surfaces, solder joints, and circuit board traces under polarized light
  • Observation of birefringent materials such as crystals, plastics, and stress patterns in glass
  • Use in metallurgical and quality control labs where surface defects must be detected under uniform lighting
  • Support for polarizing microscopes during mineralogical or gemmological analysis
  • Integration into a digital microscope setup to enhance image clarity for documentation

Who It Is For

  • Metallurgy and foundry quality control labs inspecting surface integrity
  • Jewellery and gemmology labs analyzing internal stress and crystal structure
  • Electronics manufacturers performing PCB and SMD inspection under polarized light
  • Research labs conducting birefringence or stress analysis on materials
  • University teaching labs demonstrating optical polarization effects

Problems It Solves

  • Non-uniform illumination from standard ring lights causes shadows and uneven brightness on reflective surfaces
  • Lack of polarization in lighting leads to glare and reduced contrast in high-reflectivity samples
  • Short LED lifetime in low-quality ring lights increases downtime and replacement costs
  • Incompatible mounting dimensions prevent secure attachment to microscope heads
  • Fixed working distance limits adaptability when changing sample height or objective focus

Technical Features

  • 16 polarized LED elements arranged in a circular ring for even illumination
  • Constant voltage drive at DC24V/500mA ensures consistent light output
  • White light color for high contrast and natural color rendering
  • Rated lifetime of approximately 20,000 hours under continuous operation
  • Working distance range of 40mm to 120mm from the light plane to the sample surface
  • Outer diameter: 90mm, inner diameter: 35mm, height: 33mm
  • Mounting frame designed for compatibility with standard microscope head interfaces

Comparison With Other Options

Non-polarized LED ring lightsThe AM-16-Polarized reduces glare on reflective surfaces, improving visibility of surface defects and stress patterns.
Standard ring lights with diffuse lenses onlyPolarization in the AM-16-Polarized enhances contrast in birefringent materials, which standard diffuse lights cannot achieve.
Single LED ring lights16 LEDs in a uniform ring provide more even illumination than a single LED, reducing hotspots and shadowing.

Use Guide

  • Ensure the microscope head has a compatible mounting interface before installation
  • Connect the ring light to a DC24V/500mA power supply; do not exceed the rated voltage
  • Position the light so the working distance to the sample is within 40mm to 120mm
  • Align the polarizing filter with the microscope's polarizer for optimal contrast
  • Clean the diffuser lens with a soft cloth to maintain light transmission and uniformity
Answers

Frequently Asked Questions

What power supply do I need for the AM-16-Polarized ring lights?

A DC24V/500mA constant voltage power supply is required. Ensure the output matches the input specification.

Can I use these ring lights with a digital microscope?

Yes. The ring lights are compatible with digital microscopes that have a standard mounting interface for illumination accessories.

What is the working distance range?

The working distance is 40mm to 120mm from the light plane to the sample surface.

Are the LEDs replaceable if one fails?

No. The LEDs are integrated into the ring assembly and are not designed for individual replacement.

Is the polarization adjustable?

The polarization angle is fixed during manufacturing. Custom angles are available upon request.

How long is the expected lifetime?

The LEDs have a rated lifetime of approximately 20,000 hours under continuous operation.
