Get More Control Over Your Protein Gel Imaging

The FOTO/PRO 1000 Transilluminator uses electroluminescent to produce unsurpassed uniformity of illumination. The full-sized 26 x 38 cm viewing surface emits a soft glow without glare or heat.

A continuously adjustable dimmer switch gives you superior flexibility and control when imaging protein gels, autorads, and microtiter plates. You can gradually reduce intensity to 30% of the maximum setting to optimize brightness and contrast when acquiring images.

NOTE: Continuously adjustable intensity control can be set between 100% and 30%.

What are Electroluminescent Lamps?
Electroluminescent (EL) lamps are based on ultra-thin phosphor layers which glow when exposed to electrical current. This produces soft, even illumination without glare. EL lamps generate no heat under normal operating conditions, have extremely low power draw, are virtually shock proof and are not subject to catastrophic failure. Because EL lamps do not require a gas field to charge (like fluorescent bulbs), they do not contain hazardous mercury vapor. All these characteristics make EL lamps ideal for gel imaging and analysis.
