Schott A08650 Mini Ringlight 19/32.5mm Short Working Distance

The Schott A08650 Mini Ringlight is a compact, small-format fiber optic annular ring light designed for stereo microscopes and inspection systems with 19mm or 32.5mm objective diameters — featuring a short working distance configuration that positions the ringlight close to the specimen for maximum illumination intensity, ideal for high-magnification work where the objective is close to the specimen surface.

• 🔬 Mini format: 19mm and 32.5mm objective diameters — the compact ringlight solution for stereo microscopes with small objective barrels where standard 47–66mm ringlights won’t fit
• 📏 Short working distance (Short WD) configuration — positions the ringlight close to the specimen for maximum illumination intensity at high magnification, where the objective-to-specimen distance is minimal
• 💡 Annular ring illumination for homogeneous, shadow-free lighting around the full circumference of the specimen
• 🔌 Compatible with Schott KL series and ColdVision cold light sources via standard fiber optic light guide connection
• 🇩🇪 Schott quality, made in Germany — precision fiber optic construction for consistent, high-efficiency light transmission and long service life
• ✅ New — part number A08650

🔧 Product Description

The Schott A08650 Mini Ringlight is the short working distance companion to the long WD A08660 — both designed for stereo microscopes with 19mm or 32.5mm objective diameters, but optimized for different working distance requirements. Where the A08660 Long WD provides extended clearance for tool access and manipulation, the A08650 Short WD positions the ringlight body close to the specimen, maximizing illumination intensity at the specimen surface. This makes the A08650 the right choice for high-magnification stereo microscopy where the objective is already close to the specimen and maximum brightness is more important than working clearance — such as fine detail examination, small component inspection, and high-magnification imaging of biological or materials specimens. The annular ring design delivers homogeneous, shadow-free illumination around the full circumference of the specimen. Compatible with Schott KL series and ColdVision cold light sources. Precision German fiber optic construction ensures consistent ring uniformity and long service life. Supplied new from stock, part number A08650.

🔎 Typical Applications

• High-magnification stereo microscopy requiring maximum illumination intensity close to the specimen
• Fine detail examination of small biological and materials specimens
• Small component and micro-scale surface inspection at close working distances
• Electronics and fine component inspection with small-format ring illumination
• Entomology and small specimen examination at high magnification
• Any application where maximum brightness at close range is more critical than working clearance
