A2: Yes. It can be used for indoor plant growth. Collimated lights are designed to focus light on specific areas. As a result, it provides a concentrated light source that promotes healthy plant growth.

Check the wiring diagram or notes taken earlier to ensure the new fixture will be connected correctly. Typically, there are three wires: one for power, one for neutral, and one for ground. Disconnect the old wiring from the light collimator.

LED collimated lights are becoming more popular because they use less energy and last a long time. When it's time to replace them, it's not too hard to do. Here is a step-by-step guide on how to replace LED collimated lights.

Manufacturing Standard and Custom fiber optics for Industrial, Medical, Commercial, Military and Machine Vision applications since 1977.

Take the safety glasses and work gloves out of the package. These will keep the user's eyes safe and hands safe while working. Turn off the power supply to the light fixture. This will help avoid electric shock or damage to the LED lights.

Carefully remove the old light fixture using a screwdriver. Be careful not to damage the ceiling or wall where the light is installed. Once the fixture is loose, gently pull the light away from the surface to expose the wiring.

LED collimated light is a type of light that combines LED technology with optical elements to direct and focus light into a parallel beam. This specialized lighting is widely used in various industries and applications, including retail lighting, architectural lighting, museum lighting, and more, where precise and focused illumination is required.

A1: Yes. Collimated lights are good for photography because they provide directional and focused lighting. This minimizes shadows and highlights specific details, ensuring even lighting on subjects. As a result, photographers achieve a consistent and professional appearance.

Check the purpose of the LED collimated light. Is it for highlighting a particular part of an object or general lighting? LED collimated lights are available in different lighting outputs. Higher outputs offer brighter light, while lower outputs provide softer illumination.

All FTI fiber optic illuminators can be used with all fiber optic devices currently manufactured, including all accessories. If you need help generating 0-5 Volt signals to your remote halogen unit, try using our ASCII Character Calculator.

Prepare the wiring on the new LED light bar truck by stripping the ends if needed. Then, connect the new wiring to the light. Use electrical tape to secure the connections and ensure they are insulated.

The NEWEST standard stocked fiber optic light source offering from FTI is LO-35, a family of high power (9amp and 22amp) white LED fiber optic illuminator modules, featuring an optical coupler which collects, transmits and transfers more than three times more visible light than a 150W quartz halogen EKE lamp.

Our added feature models (DC and DL), include a dual scale digital readout providing voltage and intensity values. When combined, these features maximize intensity and lamp life, while maintaining a high level of output consistency. No other fiber optic illuminator on the market can make this claim.

Different applications require different color temperatures. Choose LED collimated lights with color temperatures that suit the intended application. For example, use lights with warmer colors (2700K-3000K) for residential settings to create a cozy atmosphere. For task lighting or in areas where color accuracy is paramount, opt for lights with neutral white (4000K) illumination.

Our line of small, compact LED fiber optic lighting Light sources for commercial applications, feature a bright, reliable design for residential, commercial, general industrial and life science fiber optic lighting applications. Most of these units can be controlled by DMX, RF or IR to manage brightness, pulsing, color selection and color scheme shifting. Click on a link below to see more information on the specified unit:

Our DC Regulated Quartz Halogen product family, SOL-R offers a feature set designed to optimize output and minimize guess work; an exclusive lamp tuning feature allows the user to adjust the input-to-lamp distance, maximize coupling efficiency.

Before buying LED collimated lights for sale, it's important to understand the key factors that affect their performance and suitability for different applications. Here's what to consider when choosing LED collimated lights.

The ability of an LED collimated light to render true color is important, especially in applications like art galleries or museums. LED collimated lights with high CRI (Color Rendering Index) values between 90 and 100 are ideal for such applications. They accurately render colors and ensure that exhibited objects are displayed in their true form.

Before beginning, ensure that all the required tools and materials are available. This will make the process go more smoothly.

Before purchasing LED collimated lights, check the manufacturer's warranty and support. A longer warranty period is a sign of a reliable manufacturer. Good customer support can assist buyers with any inquiries or issues related to the lights.

For more than 35 years, FTI’s FO series quartz halogen light source has been the market’s choice for dependable fiber optic lighting at a cost efficient price point. The FO series has been replaced by the MO series… but you can still find the manual here: Manual and Operating Instructions.

LED collimated lights are built with different materials. Each material offers different durability levels and is suitable for various applications. For instance, aluminum lights are lightweight and have good heat dissipation. They are ideal for portable applications. Stainless steel lights are robust and corrosion-resistant, making them suitable for harsh environments.

If you already have a fiber optic part from another supplier, we offer a range of adapters to accept the major manufacturers’ input types.

Our original 5mm medical unit (LO-50) has been recognized by the FDA via 510K, ETL and CE guidelines for ENT medical applications. The LO-50 model offers two configurations; a 4 port turret for the most popular medical light guide designs, and a single port configuration. In the single port version, the LO-50 optical coupler can be optimized for light guide sizes up to 12mm; the larger area coupler increases total power output, which will exceed 3x the power of a Quartz Halogen illuminator when measured at the end of a large active diameter light guide.

Consider any additional features that the LED collimated light has. Some lights have built-in dimming capabilities, allowing users to adjust the brightness to suit their needs. Others may have adjustable color temperatures (Tunable White) or integrated smart lighting controls for automation and customization.

Beam expander

For OEM applications, where a full featured, stand alone unit is not required, FTI offers a light engine module. Just like our fiber optic light source offering, the light engine module can be used as a standard design, modified from standard, or completely custom built to your specification.

Manufacturers of LED collimated light have a set of features that they include in these lights to make them functional. Some of them are:

Traditional Quartz Halogen fiber optic illuminator models, valued for bright output and cost efficiency as well as our HID and Xenon offerings are available from stock. Click on the links below for more information.

Consider the beam angle of an LED collimated light. Narrow beam angles (10°-30°) focus the light into a tight beam, making it ideal for spot lighting. Wider beam angles (30°-60°) offer more even distribution, making them suitable for general lighting.

The LO-35 fiber optic illuminator family replaces LO-100. This fiber optic illuminator family has more features and power than it’s predecessor and costs less. Light guide sizes ranging from less than 1mm to 18mm will work with this light source family, which as been certified under CE and ETL for portable luminaires. Options include a communication package, featuring RS485 and/or Ethernet connectivity for wireless remote control of chip-on-time, intensity including overdrive, and pulsing as fast as as 10Ms..

A3: The difference between collimated and non-collimated light is that collimated light is parallel and focused, while non-collimated light diverges and is less focused.
