NEW Thorlabs FW102 High-Precision Motorized Filter Wheel for 1" Filters
$1200 List Price

The FW102 is a high precision motor driven filter wheel used for a host of applications including color CCD astrophotography, fluorescence microscopy, quantum optics, and photometry.

The unit consists of a control unit, a filter wheel housing and a removable 4-inch diameter filter wheel. The filter wheel accommodates up to 6, 1 inch filters or optics. Filter selection can be made manually from the push button controls on the display panel or remotely from either an RS-232 interface or a TTL- level active low (BNC) input. The FW102 contains an active display to indicate the selected filter and two unique aperture openings at 3 O'clock and 12 O'clock

The unique design of the FW102 makes the filter locations very accurate and very repeatable. The lightweight design provides easy mounting to optical instruments via two SM1 threaded mounts. Adaptors are available from Thorlabs to interface to other popular camera, microscope and telescope mounts. The unit also has ¼"-20 and M6 tapped holes for mounting to optics tables. The flexible mounting system makes the FW102 ideal for both instrument and laboratory applications.

The unit comes with a CD-ROM which contains a Windows® based standalone application program. In addition, LabWindows/CVI® and LabVIEW® instrument drivers are included to facilitate integrated instrumentation software development. The filter wheel firmware also responds to a set of "command line" based directives for those who would like to create and script their own programs.

The unit is powered from a low voltage 5 Volt DC input (converter supplied with the unit).
