SCHOTT KL 300 LED Fibre Optic Light Source for Stereo Microscopy
Compact, quiet and flexible LED cold-light illumination for routine stereo microscopy, education and industrial inspection.
Compact Fibre-Optic Illumination
The SCHOTT KL 300 LED is a compact LED light source designed for fibre-optic illumination in stereo microscopy and inspection applications.
It combines a maintenance-free LED light engine with the flexibility of interchangeable fibre-optic light guides, allowing one light source to support several illumination techniques including directional, ring-light and transmitted-light configurations.
Its compact design, simple controls and silent fanless operation make the KL 300 LED particularly well suited to routine laboratory work, education and general industrial inspection.

One Light Source – Multiple Illumination Techniques
One of the main advantages of the KL 300 LED is the ability to change the fibre-optic light guide to suit the application.

KL 300 LED Light Guides Are Model-Specific
The KL 300 LED uses a different light-guide connection from the SCHOTT KL1600LED, KL2500LED and KL1500HAL.
Please choose a light guide specifically listed as compatible with the KL 300 LED.
Flexible Mounting Options
The compact KL 300 LED can be mounted directly to a compatible microscope stand or column, helping keep the illumination control conveniently positioned beside the microscope.
SCHOTT offers a range of mounting brackets for different stand and column configurations, together with a separate accessory base for free-standing use.
A suitable mounting bracket is required unless an alternative mounting arrangement is already available.

Auckland Scientific – Illumination Support
Fibre-optic illumination is highly flexible, but the best light guide depends on the specimen and the contrast you are trying to achieve.
Tell us what you are inspecting and the microscope you are using and we can help select the appropriate KL 300 LED light guide, mounting arrangement and accessories.
Light guides and mounting accessories are supplied separately unless included in the selected product configuration. Product specifications are subject to manufacturer changes.
