Zeiss Viluma 7 Emission Filters
Comparison Relative normalized intensity between Viluma 7 and HXP light sources
Les informations ci-dessus n’indiquent pas directement l’intensité effective fournie par l’instrument, car Zeiss ne communique pas la puissance nominale de ses sources lumineuses, à l’exception de la puissance totale de sortie qui est de 1510 mW.
Le graphique de gauche indique uniquement la largeur de bande du filtre d’émission, tandis que le graphique de droite compare les intensités relatives normalisées entre le Viluma et l’ancienne lampe à vapeur de mercure HXP 120.
Prendre note que les deux graphiques sont trompeurs puisqu’ils présentent 8 canaux individuels, ce qui ne peut pas être fourni dans un même produit. Le Viluma 7 ne peut fournir que 7 canaux individuels. Notez aussi que le modèle intégré à cet instrument ne comporte pas le canal Cyan.
