VisiLED MC 750 : Optimal lighting control for precision microscopy
The VisiLED MC 750 from Schott is a lighting controller designed to meet the specific requirements of stereoscopic microscopy. Its main purpose is to enable smooth and precise adjustment of LED lighting, particularly in situations where moderate contrast is sufficient. It is part of Schott's VisiLED range, renowned for its optical quality and reliability. Thanks to its ability to power a single LED head via a dedicated connector, this module is easy to integrate into any microscopic environment, whether for research, industrial or medical applications.
With its compact dimensions (73.5 x 110 x 40 mm), the MC 750 fits easily into restricted bench-top configurations without compromising user ergonomics. Its robust design, combined with convection heat dissipation, ensures high reliability and a long service life without the need for moving parts such as fans. This technological choice limits noise and vibrations that could interfere with sensitive observations.
The main advantage of the VisiLED MC 750 is its continuous dimming function ("extra-fine smooth dimming"), which gives the user granular control over the light intensity emitted. This capability is essential for optimising observation conditions, particularly when examining delicate or slightly contrasting samples. By subtly adjusting the incident light, it is possible to avoid overexposure and bring out fine details that would otherwise be hidden.
The device connects to an external power supply via a DC input and operates at a voltage of 21 to 24 volts DC. It complies with CE, UL and PSE standards, ensuring safe use in regulated environments. It also complies with EMC-B class electromagnetic compatibility standards, preventing interference with sensitive measuring instruments often used in microscopy.
The MC 750 has been deliberately simplified for use focused on a single light point, without segmentation or rotation features. This approach makes it an ideal choice for laboratories looking for an economical, efficient and intuitive solution without the added complexity of programming or multi-segment control.
The VisiLED MC 750 is compatible with a wide range of accessories available from Schott, including LED light heads, specific power cords according to regional standards, and add-on modules. It integrates seamlessly into existing systems or can be deployed as a stand-alone unit for dedicated workstations. Its energy efficiency, ease of use, and compact design make it a must-have for any professional looking to improve their microscopy viewing conditions.
