o X-CiteŽ 120Q and 120PC Q offer the same revolutionary advantages as previous models but with much quieter operation
QUEBEC CITY, CANADA, September 24, 2008 - EXFO Electro-Optical Engineering Inc.'s Life Sciences and Industrial Division (NASDAQ: EXFO, TSX: EXF) announced today the launch of the X-CiteŽ 120Q and 120PC Q, the quietest X-CiteŽ products to date.
The X-CiteŽ 120Q and 120PC Q have been equipped with a newly-designed cooling system, resulting in a reduction of acoustic noise, while maintaining optimal cooling conditions for both lamp performance and safety. The new X-CiteŽ 120Q and 120PC Q are 65% quieter than the original X-CiteŽ, providing researchers with a significantly more comfortable working environment. This enhanced product is being offered with no price increase.
"At EXFO, we strive to provide our customers with consistent quality, continual improvements & innovation to our products and services," said Allan Firhoj, Vice President and General Manager of EXFO's Life Sciences and Industrial Division. "The launch of the X-CiteŽ 120Q and 120PC Q demonstrates such a commitment, as the redesign was inspired by our customers' feedback to develop a quieter system."
Available today, the X-CiteŽ 120Q and 120PC Q replace the X-CiteŽ 120XL models, which have been discontinued. Orders currently placed for the X-CiteŽ 120XL systems will be automatically upgraded to the appropriate X-CiteŽ 120Q.
Offering all the convenience and control of the original X-CiteŽ, the X-CiteŽ 120Q and 120PC Q include easy-to-install, pre-aligned lamps, guaranteed 2000-hour lamp life, superior microscope coupling adaptors for exceptional illumination uniformity, and EXFO's patented Intelli-LampŽ Technology. The X-CiteŽ 120Q and 120PC Q have the same uniform and intense optical performance as the previous models, and are compatible with all major microscope brands.
