Master Proheat Tool for Many Applications
Racine, WI — Master Proheat STC, reportedly the world's first heat gun to sense, display and control work surface temperature, has revolution- ized heating tools. Now Master is introducing its new Proheat STC Dual Mode Heat Gun, Model PH- 1610, combining the breakthrough STC Surface Temperature Control technology with standard electronic heat gun capability. In STC Mode, this single heat-
ing tool with its high temperature, airflow and power rating eliminates over- or under-heating by means of an electronically integrated Infrared Sensor and special Laser Targeting System that work together to control work surface temperatures. The new tool speeds up the heat-
ing process, reaching target surface temperatures fast; enables working at the upper limits of the cure zone, automatically adjusting heat output to compensate for changes in distance from the work surface; allows locking the target surface temperature and airflow settings; greatly enhances process control over standard or con- ventional heat guns. In Standard Mode, the Proheat STC Dual Mode Heat Gun becomes a

tures inside the end of the nozzle; provides dial-in temperatures from 170 to 1000°F (76 to 538°C) and air- flow from 4 to 16 CFM. The heat gun allows locking the temperature and airflow settings for supervisory con- trol; enables use of 19 optional pro- fessional quality, stainless steel attachments for a full range of gener- al heating applications, including soldering/desoldering, heat shrink
tubing, and plastic welding. Contact: Master Appliance

Nikon: Microscopy Cameras with Optimized Sensors
Brighton, MI — Nikon Metrology has released two new digital cameras for microscopes, the DS-Ri2 and DS-Qi2. These are the first Nikon digital cameras for microscopes in the Digital Sight series equipped with a Nikon FX-format CMOS sensor, and offer 16.25 Megapixel high-definition images. The DS-Ri2 provides superi- or color reproduction and fast frame rates. The monochrome model DS- Qi2 enables high-sensitivity, low- noise images. The Model DS-Ri2 provides one-
shot capture of high-definition color images at 16.25 MP. The newly equipped CMOS sensor for Nikon FX-format digital SLR cameras (36.0 x 23.9mm image size) enables one- shot capture of high-definition images. It also allows faster imaging than pixel shift imaging comprising multiple-shot images, and reduces vibration during image capture. The camera produces superior
color, high sensitivity and low-noise imaging. The newly developed image processing engine is excellent for brightfield imaging of pathological samples, which require high-color reproducibility. The large pixel size (7.3µm pixel pitch) allows weak light to be captured by each pixel and the low-noise circuit design is optimized for microscope imaging. These enable sensitivity control from ISO200 to ISO12800, and high-sensitivity fluo- rescence imaging with reduced noise. High-speed live-image display
using USB3.0 computer connection and CMOS sensor, which provides high-speed data readout, significant- ly improving the frame rate to 45fps (1636 x 1088 pixels), from 19fps (1280 x 1024 pixels) with the conven- tional model. This enables fast live- image display and easy observation point selection and focusing. The monochrome DS-Qi2 pro-
vides high sensitivity and low noise, using a newly developed 16.25MP monochrome CMOS sensor for an image size of 36.0 x 23.9mm. The S/N ratio is five times better than that of conventional models, with quantum efficiency up to 77 percent and 2.2- electron readout noise. In addition, Peltier cooling (electronic cooling) reduces dark-current noise and pro- duces clear images with reduced noise even with dark fluorescent specimens. The camera provides superior
quantitative performance with a low ±1 percent linearity error of output power to input light intensity, which
