Aven Tools 26700-141-RLUV MicroVue 2.0 Ultraviolet LED Ring Light, 365–370 nm
Aven Tools 26700-141-RLUV MicroVue 2.0 Ultraviolet LED Ring Light, 365–370 nm
The Aven Tools 26700-141-RLUV ultraviolet LED ring light adds 365–370 nm illumination to the MicroVue 2.0 digital microscope, item 26700-141. Designed for fluorescence inspection and UV-reactive material analysis, it helps reveal suitable fluorescent coatings, markings and surface features that may be difficult to distinguish under standard white light.
The magnetic mount attaches directly to the compatible microscope without tools. Power comes from the MicroVue 2.0, so no separate external power supply or additional external cables are required. Its 90 mm diameter and 27 mm height keep the light compact around the inspection optics.
Best Uses / Applications
- Fluorescent coating inspection: Examine visible coverage and contrast where the coating contains a suitable UV-reactive indicator.
- Electronics inspection: View UV-reactive features on PCBs and small assemblies using the compatible MicroVue 2.0 system.
- Marking and material analysis: Inspect suitable fluorescent inks, identification markings and UV-reactive materials.
- Surface inspection: Look for fluorescent residues or contamination where the material responds to 365–370 nm illumination.
- Laboratory and specialty imaging: Add UV illumination to compatible microscope workflows requiring fluorescence contrast.
Visibility depends on the material's fluorescence response. Fluorescence alone does not establish adhesive cure, coating thickness, cleanliness or acceptance against a process specification. This is an inspection accessory, not a specified UV-curing system.

UV vs. Standard LED Ring Light
| Option | Primary Selection Consideration |
|---|---|
| 26700-141-RLUV ultraviolet ring light | 365–370 nm illumination for suitable fluorescent materials, coatings and markings. |
| 26700-141-RLLED standard LED ring light | General visible-light inspection of surface detail and assemblies; a different accessory from this UV model. |
| UV-curing equipment | Select equipment specified for the adhesive, dose and process when curing is required; this ring light is described for inspection. |
Compatibility and Use
Match part number 26700-141-RLUV to the MicroVue 2.0 microscope item 26700-141. Do not assume universal fit with other microscope generations or mounting systems. Follow the manufacturer's UV operating instructions and your workplace exposure-control procedures; avoid direct eye and skin exposure to the UV source.
Frequently Asked Questions
What wavelength does this UV ring light produce?
The supplied manufacturer specifications list a 365–370 nm wavelength range.
Which microscope is it designed for?
Aven identifies compatibility with the MicroVue 2.0 digital microscope, item 26700-141.
Does it require a separate power supply?
No. It draws power directly from the compatible MicroVue 2.0 microscope. The manufacturer lists 12 V operation and a 6 W rating.
How does it attach?
The magnetic mount attaches to the compatible microscope without tools.
Is it the same as the standard LED replacement light?
No. This is the 26700-141-RLUV ultraviolet model. The 26700-141-RLLED is the separate standard LED ring light for general visible-light inspection.
Can it inspect conformal coatings?
It can support visual inspection when the coating has a suitable fluorescent indicator that responds to this wavelength. It does not independently measure thickness or establish coating acceptance.
Can fluorescence confirm that an adhesive is fully cured?
Not by itself. Use the adhesive manufacturer's validated cure-verification method. This product is specified as an inspection ring light, not a curing system.
What are its dimensions and weight?
The housing measures 90 mm in diameter and 27 mm high. The manufacturer lists its weight as 0.22 lb (0.10 kg).
