LED Ring Light WE-PLUS with vertical illuminator unit

High-brightness stereo microscope LED ring light with vertical illuminator unit

WE-PLUS is a dual-row LED ring light for stereo microscopes with a detachable vertical illuminator unit. The vertical illuminator is fitted with a concentrating lens that delivers approximately twice the brightness of conventional designs. With over 50,000 lux of illumination, built-in PWM dimmer and a durable aluminum die-cast body,
WE-PLUS is suitable for observation, inspection, assembly and quality control work.

Dual-Row LED Ring — Even Brighter

The high-brightness white LED proven in the Simple-5 is now arranged in two rows — 54 LEDs vs. 24 in Simple-5. This delivers over 50,000 lux of illumination, and the extra brightness makes filter work with optional color filters comfortable and effective.

Vertical Illuminator Unit — Illuminates Further

The newly designed vertical illuminator unit directs light deep into areas that are difficult to illuminate with a conventional ring light alone. Three high-brightness LEDs provide ample light output. The unit can be detached when not needed.

WE-PLUS vertical illuminator unit diagram

The vertical illuminator is positioned in the gap of the optical path between the left and right objective lenses. The position is determined based on independent optical analysis of major stereo microscope brands including Nikon, Olympus, Leica and Zeiss, minimizing interference with the field of view.

Options

Optional filters help adapt WE-PLUS to different observation conditions and sample types.

Filters

WE-PLUS optional filters

Protective (WP-CF), diffuser (WP-RS), warm (WP-WF), red (WP-AF) and blue (WP-BF) filters are available. Warm filter changes color temperature from approx. 8,000 K to approx. 5,000 K.

Vertical Illuminator — Long Type

Vertical Illuminator Long Type WV-LONG

A long-type vertical illuminator unit (WV-LONG) is available for samples requiring a longer working distance between the ring light and the observation surface.

Installation to Microscope

WE-PLUS can be attached directly with three screws when the target mounting diameter is within Φ40 mm to Φ61 mm. For selected microscope models or specific mounting configurations, an optional attachment adapter may be required.

WE-PLUS direct mounting diameter range

Direct attachment with three screws

WE-PLUS is designed for direct attachment when the target mounting diameter is within the Φ40 mm to Φ61 mm range.

If the microscope has a different mounting diameter or a body shape that does not allow direct screw attachment, use the appropriate optional adapter.

WE-PLUS attachment adapter installation example

Microscopes requiring an optional attachment adapter

  • Olympus SZ61 / SZ Series:
    SZ-AD, Φ48 mm, P=0.75, US$ 20
  • Carton, limited compatible models:
    C-AD, Φ49 mm, P=0.75, US$ 30
  • Nikon: compatible with most models without an attachment adapter
  • Target mounting diameter between
    61 and 70 mm: 6070-AD, US$ 35

Note: Actual compatibility depends on the microscope model and the outer diameter of the mounting area. Please check the mounting diameter before ordering an attachment adapter.
