USHIO SHI-130NI – Genuine OEM Mercury Short-Arc Lamp, 130W
This listing is for one genuine USHIO SHI-130NI mercury short-arc lamp bulb, 130W. USHIO is the original Japanese manufacturer that supplies OEM bulbs to Olympus and Nikon for their fluorescence microscopy systems. This is the real USHIO-manufactured bulb—no generic copies, no rebranded substitutes.
This is a bare bulb only. It does not include a lamp housing. The SHI-130NI is designed to be installed into a compatible microscope lamp housing such as the Olympus U-HGLGPS or Nikon C-LHGFI HG. This procedure requires careful handling and is recommended for users experienced with bare bulb replacement. Always wear protective gloves and eye protection when handling mercury burners.
Cross-Reference Part Numbers
The USHIO SHI-130NI is the same OEM bulb as the following part numbers. If your microscope uses any of these lamp types, this is the correct replacement bulb:
| Lamp Part Number | Compatible Microscope System |
|---|---|
| SHI-130NI | USHIO / Nikon fluorescence microscopy systems |
| SHI-130OL | Olympus U-HGLGPS light source; Olympus BX53M, GX53, MX63 upright fluorescence microscopes; Olympus FLUOVIEW FVMPE-RS, FV3000 confocal systems |
| SHI-130N1 | USHIO alternative reference number |
| MBF74650 | Nikon C-LHGFI HG / C-LHGFI HG FI Precentered Fiber Illuminator |
Final confirmation before you order: To guarantee a 100% match, please check the lamp part number printed on your original bulb or listed in your microscope’s user manual (for example, Olympus SHI-130OL or Nikon MBF74650). Compare this part number with the cross-reference list above, or contact us with your lamp part number and microscope model—we will verify compatibility at no charge. Relying on the lamp part number is the most reliable way to avoid any mismatch.
