Details
The Cermax® Xenon short-arc lamp from Excelitas Technologies is an
innovative lamp design in the specialty lighting industry. Cermax® Xenon
lamps were first introduced in the early 1980s and are now used in
diagnostic and surgical endoscopes in most major hospitals worldwide, in
high-brightness projection display systems, and for a wide variety of highperformance applications.
The Cermax® Xenon lamp, Model PE300BFA, has an integrated parabolic
reflector, enabling high-intensity, focused output of visible and infrared
radiation. With their internal reflector and rugged ceramic body
construction, Cermax® Xenon lamps are the safest and most compact
alternative to conventional quartz xenon lamps. This makes them ideal for
applications requiring a high degree of illumination control.
Current-regulated or power-regulated power supplies with output ripples
of less than 5% are recommended. Single-shot ignition pulses are advised
because radio frequency starters may damage the lamp’s internal
reflector.
In addition to lamps, Excelitas Technologies manufactures Cermax® Xenon
short-arc lamp power supplies, lamp holders, OEM lighting systems, and
fiber optic light sources.
