WARNING: Prior to turning the light output on, be sure the output end of the liquid light guide or op-
tical fiber is safely directed into an enclosed optical path (e.g. a beam dump).#
AVERTISSEMENT!: avant d'activer la sortie de lumière, assurez-vous que l'extrémité de sortie du
guide de lumière liquide ou de la fibre optique est dirigée en toute sécurité dans un chemin optique
fermé (par exemple, une décharge de faisceau).#
Attach the optical fiber or liquid light guide to the output adapter. In the case of liquid light guides,
secure the tip of the light guide in the output adapter using the set screw provided (Figure 2). Prior
to activating light output, be sure the output end of the light guide or optical fiber is safely directed
into an enclosed optical path (e.g. microscope input collimator or a beam dump). Do not bend the
light guide beyond its specified minimum bending radius (40 mm or 1.6 inches). Extreme
bending of the light guide may cause permanent deformation, resulting in decreased light
transmission.#
SPECTRA light engines have bandpass filters associated with each light source. These filters are
part of the order specification and are not user-exchangeable. SPECTRA X light engines have user-
exchangeable filters installed in removable paddles which the user can access once the top cover
retained by two thumb screws is removed (Figure 3). The paddles accept standard 25 mm diameter
filters. A set screw recessed in the body of the paddle engages the perimeter mounting ring of the
filter to secure it in place (Figure 4). A listing of standard bandpass filters available for installation in
SPECTRA and SPECTRA X light engines can be found at http://lumencor.com/products/filters-for-
