Nerlite machine vision lighting now includes approximately 300 standard lighting configurations in multiple geometries, sizes, and wavelengths. Includes the addition of infrared, ultraviolet, blue, and white wavelengths to most standard geometries. Basic geometries include ring lights, area arrays, bar lights, dome lights, dark field, and high-intensity lights. Specialty configurations include Edge to Edge backlights, and DOAL, CDI and SCDI illuminators. Optimized for factory automation applications by standardizing on 24-volt power and industrial connections, allowing operation to 40ºC, and using a single-point controller for any light. Nerlite NL-200 lighting controller is an Ethernet-based product that can be accessed and controlled via any Internet browser; offers precise light intensity control of illumination, plus fast and microsecond-accurate timing for strobe control in high-speed applications. All are 100% LED-based. Includes 3-year warranty.
