Polarized LED Ring Light minimizes glare.

info@productnews.com (ThomasNet Industrial Newsroom) — Tue, 24 Oct 2006 07:51:05 -0500

Suited for inspection microscopes, Model RL-9 comes with polarizing option that diminishes glare from reflective objects. It functions by allowing light from LEDs to pass through polarizing film before illuminating object. Light bounces off object and passes through analyzer before arriving at eye of operator or lens of camera. Rotating ring at center of ring light aligns analyzer with polarizer, resulting in images with minimal glare and more contrast.
