Transmitted illuminations
Two illumination versions (LED and halogen) are available for the Hemera microscope: The standard confirguation is transmitted intensity adjustable 100W halogen illumination with internal 100-240V power supply. The transmitted halogen illumination comes with 2 push-in/push-out neutral density filters for smooth attenuation of the light intensity for all kind of samples

Transmitted LED Illumination
The innovative LED design is a combination of a custom LED and a specially designed thin lens with a short focal length in order to obtain three main benefits:
- More oblique light from the LED light source can be captured, which increases the light output significantly
- Less energy is required to achieve this level of light intensity
- 3. The larger aperture of LED allows the optical system of the microscope to produce images at higher resolutions, very close to the theoretical diffraction limit of the optics
ECO function
The unique sensor is developed to avoid unnecessary loss of energy. The illumination of the microscope automatically switches off after users step away from their position for 30 minutes.
