Lighting LED

The ORBITEC LED light cap is among the most advanced solid state lighting systems currently available for biological research. This highly modular system offers greatly improved spectral flexibility, point source density and optical power delivery. Due to its multiple "light engine" design, lighting systems of virtually any size and required light output can be easily accommodated. The unique packaging approach allows a point source density of over 100 LED's per square inch.
