iCyt - Cell Sorters and Flow Cytometers

488nm Laser Systems


Lyt 200•S Laser System

The Lyt 200•S Laser System is optimized for cytometry applications, emitting highly stable, low-CV, 488 nm continuous wave light. With adjustable power levels from 20 mW to 200 mW, the Lyt 200•S is the perfect replacement for air-cooled and water-cooled argon-ion lasers. This versatile laser has been installed on the cell sorting instruments of each major manufacturer, on three continents, with exceptional results!

Users will experience a number of benefits including:

  • Superior Beam Quality - Better beam quality means BETTER SCIENCE!
  • Exceptional Lifetime - No degradation of diode current over 15,000 hours
  • Exceptional Support - iCyt team of engineers and field service personnel trained and committed exclusively to solid state laser support
  • The laser reaches stable operation within a few minutes from cold start and within a few seconds from standby.
  • No need to be "tethered" to three-phase power or water supply means tremendous flexibility on instrument placement
  • Drop-in Replacement - Easy installation on any cell sorter or analyzer.

Lyt 100•S Laser System

The Lyt 100•S Laser System is optimized for cytometry applications, emitting highly stable, low-CV, 488 nm continuous wave light. Exceptionally well-engineered design eliminates the need for cooling fans or blowers, making the Lyt 100•S the perfect replacement for noisy, high maintenance, air-cooled argon lasers. This is a truly versatile laser with adjustable power levels ranging from 10 mW to 100 mW.

Users will experience a number of benefits including:

  • Superior beam quality, with extremely low CV's
  • Lab-friendly operation, with minimal heat and noise
  • Significant operating cost savings
  • Exceptional lifetime — over 15,000 hours expected lifetime
  • Near instantaneous warm-up
  • Eliminate Service Problems - The solid state design of the Lyt 100•S makes it virtually maintenance free
