Overview

About the LMX-LES160FL-W

Introduction

160 × 160 mm of illumination on the camera's own axis — the largest field in the family, and the one that makes a whole flat panel a single frame.

Behind the glass, up to 256 High Power LEDs. In strobe the light field passes three kilowatts, and the peak at the window passes 1.2 million lux.

What it puts on the part

Read the width of those ranges before choosing a part number. They are not measurement tolerance — they span builds that differ by a factor of a hundred and fifty. A 64-LED collimated unit and a 256-LED diffuse one are both LES160, and the figure that matters is the one for the build, not for the family.

Irradiance at 100 mm runs 31.6 to 56.8 W/m² continuous and 89.2 to 1,863.6 W/m² in strobe. Electrical power at the light field is 29 to 40 W continuous, 57 to 3,012 W in a flash.

Diffuse or collimated

Diffuse spreads the light across the full 160 mm: even, and forgiving of surface texture.

Collimated keeps the rays parallel. Over a field this wide that is the harder and more useful trick — on a specular panel, any local tilt turns into a sharp change in brightness, so a scratch, a dent or a lifted edge goes dark where diffuse light would have filled it in.

Timing

100 % brightness within 5 µs in strobe, 160 µs in switching mode — the fastest switching figure in the family, on the largest light in it.

Flash duration is 10–100 µs, 20–220 µs or 50–750 µs by part number, at 10, 35 or 100 Hz. Triggering takes TTL at 3 to 30 V DC or PLC at 15 to 30 V DC, on the rising edge.

Mounting it

4.1 kg, 268 mm long and 180 mm on a side. This is a structural mount, not a bracket: support it from the housing, allow the 308 mm the cable needs behind it, and leave the airflow clear. The ambient limit is 45 °C and there is no fan.

Applications

Large flat surfaces where the whole part has to be in one frame — PCB panels, glass, display, sheet and rolled metal, laminates and coatings.

Where it fits

The top of the LES family. LES100 at 100 × 100 mm is the next size down and weighs half as much; below that, LES80, LES60 and LES40.
