Product Introduction

The new generation Hyper E340 can effectively increase the LED light source intensity by 22% to 143% or more.
The Hyper E340 lighting system provides wide-range LED illumination with a spectral coverage range of 350 nm to 730 nm, which can satisfy the fluorescence commonly used in most experimental research, such as DAPI, GFP/FITC, cherry/Texas Red, Cy3, Cy5 (or Cy7). It can help you work efficiently and energy-starvingly.
The Hyper E340 lighting system comes with a comprehensive microscope adapter that can be applied to most existing microscopes or connected to a 3.0mm liquid light guide. The on/off and light source intensity adjustment of the light source output are controlled by the electronic control box and adjusted by the dimming knob.
In addition, the LED has a long lifespan, so you don’t have to worry about replacing bulbs. YODN Hyper E340 is the best choice for fluorescence microscopy research.

Cautions and Warnings:

Simple operation to ensure the normal operation of the light box.

Safety instructions:
Before operating the Hyper E340 lighting system, please read and follow all safety instructions provided. Failure to comply with safety instructions may result in fire, electric shock, or personal injury and may cause equipment damage or malfunction. Please keep all safety instructions.

Safety definitions:
Danger: Statements indicating a risk of death, serious injury, equipment damage, and procedures.
Warning: Statements indicating a risk of personal injury or procedures.
Notice: Statements indicating a risk of equipment damage or procedures.

Safety items:
Warning: Do not use unapproved power sources. Please use the YODN-provided power source for the Hyper E340 lighting system. The range of the external voltage input is 100~240 VAC, the voltage output is 12 VDC, and the maximum current output is 15.0 A.
Danger: Do not stare at UV bright light. The light source output of the lighting system includes UV light, which may cause harm to the eyes or skin. Do not stare at the light source output. To avoid exposure of eyes and skin to the beam, it is essential to wear goggles and protective clothing. The brightness of the lighting system is higher than that of most commercial lighting devices and is mainly used for coupling with microscopes or other biological analysis instruments.
Notice: Do not open the casing of the light box or change external devices in any way. Opening the lighting system casing will void the product warranty because there are no repairable or replaceable parts outside the lighting system.
Notice: Do not place liquid containers on top of the light box. The spilled liquid may damage the light box.
Notice: Do not drop or suddenly apply external force to the light box. The vibration caused by falling onto a hard surface, external impact, or collision may damage or displace the internal components of the lighting system, causing malfunction.
Note: The liquid light guide should not be subjected to impact or bending with a minimum bending radius greater than the standard value.

RISK GROUP 3
WARRING IR emitted from this product. Do not look at operating lamp CAUTION UV emitted from this product . Eye or skin irritation may result from exposure. Use appropriate shielding.

Hyper E340 Function Introduction:

Illuminator:

Before operating the device, please ensure that the optical fiber is correctly installed into the optical fiber port. Installation method: remove the protective covers on both sides of the optical fiber, loosen the hand-twist screw, and slide the optical fiber completely into the optical fiber socket without interference. After inserting the optical fiber to the bottom position, gently tighten the hand-twist screw to secure the optical fiber without loosening, to prevent over-tightening and damaging the optical fiber.
The bending of the optical fiber must not exceed the specifications of the minimum bending radius (80mm or 3.2 inches). Excessive bending of the optical fiber may cause permanent deformation and reduce the amount of light output.
Note: Before turning on the light, please ensure that the protective covers on both sides of the liquid optical fiber have been removed, and the output end of the optical fiber is placed in a safe position, away from flammable and unprotected objects. The output light of the optical fiber (including UV light output) should not be directly viewed by human eyes to avoid high-intensity light and UV light radiation damage to the operator and others.

Illuminator installation and operation:
After turning on the power on the back of the Hyper E340 light source box, the light source box enters a standby state, and the startup switch displays “red.” Before starting the light source, make sure that the display panel shows an intensity of 000%, and then manually press the front panel startup switch to turn on or turn off the light source. Pressing the startup switch can turn on the light source. When the light source is turned on, the startup switch displays “blue,” and the output intensity is set to the minimum intensity of 000%. Use the front panel knob to adjust the intensity by rotating it (for example, 000% → 010% →… → 100%) or press the knob and rotate it to fine-tune the intensity (for example, 010% → 011% →… → 100%). The light source intensity is displayed on the panel.

Note: When the illuminator is turned on, take necessary protective measures to protect yourself and others from exposure to strong light (including UV light).
The illuminator does not have a safety interlock device. When the optical fiber is disconnected from the light source box during operation, the light source box continues to output light. Please take necessary protective measures to protect personnel and items from exposure to strong light (UV light).
Before turning off the illuminator, please make sure that the light source has been turned off. When the light source is turned off, the startup switch displays “red,” and the cooling fan runs for at least 3 minutes before turning off the power of the light source box.

Installation and operation:

  1. Carefully remove the components from the cardboard box.

  2. You can choose to use the Hyper E340 lighting unit through either manual control or remote Operation.

  3. Remote operation – RS232: Connect one end of the USB cable to the host and the other end to the computer.

  4. Remote operation – TTL: Connect via BNC in order to trigger the LED with an external switch.

  5. Connect the power cord to the Power socket on the back of the host, and the other end to a power outlet. Once powered on, the blue light on the power supply will remain on.
    ※ Please ensure that the DC power supply provided with the product is used, otherwise it may damage the light source and void the warranty.

  6. Liquid light guide installation method:
    a. Secure the light guide adapter to the light source lens port of the Hyper E340 unit.
    b. Attach the condenser lens to your microscope’s light receptacle.
    c. Remove the protective covers from both ends of the light guide, insert one end into the light guide adapter, and the other end into the condenser lens.
    d. After inserting the light guide into the port, gently tighten the screw by hand until the light guide is securely fixed in place. Over-tightening may cause damage to the light guide.
