High Speed Filter Wheels and Shutters

The Filter Wheel system delivers smooth, high speed operation and changes filters in as little as 55ms. Two wheels are available to accept ten 25mm or eight 32mm diameter filters. The filter wheel can be fitted to the excitation and emission ports of your microscope and up to two filter wheels on the OptiScanII systems, or three filter wheels on the ProScanII and PriorPCI2 systems. Both systems are capable of operating three shutters from a single controller via a serial port or an optional filter wheel keypad. An optional sliding filter holder can be fitted for neutral density or infrared filters. Up to three shutters (HF200) can be mounted directly to a microscope illuminator, a camera port or used in conjunction with a filter wheel. Control is via a serial port or the optional filter wheel keypad.
