HF108FC Widefield Filter Turret


8 Position Filter Turret for Fluorescence Microscopy

Prior's HF108FC widefield filter turret provides an excellent high capacity, durable platform for system integrators to build cutting edge fluorescence instruments.

Compatible with 25 mm and 32 mm filter cubes and offering eight positions, the HF108FC is ideal for high-plex, high sensitivity fluorescence instruments requiring a large number of dedicated single channel filter sets or for systems combining fluorescence imaging with classical industrial imaging modalities such as reflected darkfield or DIC. The HF108FC works well in life science, materials science, and hybrid imaging systems.

The HF108FC is available either as a standalone unit, or integrated with a preassembled optical path as part of an OpenStand imaging system.

For higher speed fluorescence imaging, The HF108FC can be combined with Prior's HF108B high speed filter wheel, multiband dichroic beamsplitters and single band emission filters using the same controller, creating an optimally synchronised imaging workflow.
