DeltaRAM X™ Random Access Monochromator
PTI's exciting new DeltaRAM X™represents the next bold step in the
evolution of light sources. The compact,
proprietary (patented) single
monochromator design permits the
selection of any single wavelength in
two milliseconds or less. It is ideally
suited for multi-wavelength applications
as well as excitation scanning. It
is easily controlled via a single low voltage
signal line. Includes a 2-meter
liquid light guide, for use with most
microscopes and other sample handling
devices. DeltaRAM X™ delivers
powerful excitation wavelength
from 250 - 650 nm under synch-lock
computer control. Synch-lock control,
locks the DeltaRAM X™ monochromator
to the camera exposure or frame
readout. The DeltaRAM X™ saves you
money by not requiring purchase of
additional excitation filters for each
dye you wish to use. Synch-lock allows
accurate timing to be retained
between camera and illuminator.
 Systems not synch-locked can be
plagued with synchronization problems
or latency due to operating
events or user clicking events. Try this
in another imaging software package,
click and drag a window, either the
illuminator will stop moving, or images
will stop being acquired until the
mouse button is released. This does
not happen with PTI's sync lock!
Lamp Power Supply
PTI lamp power supplies are
highly-regulated DC units that provides
very stable power for xenon,
mercury, and mercury/xenon compact
arc lamps as well as tungsten-halogen
lamps.
