1. Introduction
The PEKA light engine provides a powerful alternative to conventional tungsten-halogen sources for transmitted light
microscopy. Unlike tungsten-halogen lamps, the color temperature of the PEKA’s white light output does not
change when the intensity is turned up or down. The white light output is a composite of red, green and blue color
outputs from three efficient and durable solid state sources. Each PEKA light engine incorporates a mounting
adapter for direct coupling to the transillumination port of the microscope. Because there is no fan, the compact
PEKA light engine is completely quiet and vibration free.
The PEKA light engine is manually controlled via knobs located on the side panel of the light engine or on the base
of Nikon microscope stands. Additionally, the light output can be electronically gated off and on by TTL signals
applied to a BNC connector on the rear panel. This manual covers both configurations making up the PEKA light
engine family:
2. Precautions and Warnings {Précautions et mises en garde}!
A few simple practices will ensure trouble-free operation for the life of the light engine.
Les quelques règles simples suivantes permettront d’assurer un fonctionnement fiable pendant toute la durée de
service de la source lumineuse.

Safety Items {Mesures de sécurité}:
Warning: DO NOT use an unapproved power supply. The Lumencor supplied 9V, 4.45A external power
supply is required for use with the Peka light engine. It is imperative that the alternative power supply has
output over-current protection, as the power input of the Peka is not fused. The DC power supply must have
the AC power cord connected to a receptacle with a protective safety (earth) ground terminal.!
Avertissement": NE PAS utiliser une alimentation électrique non homologuée. Le Lumencor fourni 9V, 4.45a
alimentation externe est nécessaire pour une utilisation avec le moteur de lumière Peka. Il est impératif que le
bloc d'alimentation de remplacement a une sortie protection contre les surintensités, comme l'entrée de
puissance du Peka est pas fusionné. L' alimentation en courant continu doit avoir le cordon d'alimentation relié
à une prise avec une sécurité de protection ( terre) du sol.!
Warning: DO NOT look into the output of the light engine. The brightness of this light source is higher than
most commercial lighting fixtures and is required to couple directly into a microscope or other bioanalytjcal
instrument.!
Avertissement: NE PAS regarde directement la sortie de la source lumineuse. L’intensité lumineuse de
cette source est supérieure à celle de la majorité des appareils d’éclairage disponibles dans le commerce et est
conçue pour un raccordement direct à un microscope ou autre appareil de bioanalyse.!
Warning: DO NOT turn on the light unless the output is safely directed"into an enclosed optical path.!
Avertissement: NE PAS allumer la lumière à moins que la sortie ne soit dirigée de manière sûre dans un
chemin optique inclus.!
RISK GROUP 3
Warning: Possibly hazardous optical radiation emitted from this product. Do not look at operating lamp.
Eye injury may result.
Warning: UV emitted from this product. Avoid eye and skin exposure to unshielded product.!
GROUPE DE RISQUE 3
Avertissement: UV émis par ce produit . Évitez les yeux et la peau exposition au produit non blindé.!
Avertissement: Rayonnement optique Peut-être dangereux émis par ce produit . Ne regardez pas la lampe
d'exploitation. Une blessure oculaire peut entraîner.!
