Description
The Cermax® xenon arc lamp is an innovative lamp design in the specialty lighting industry. These lamps were introduced in the early 1980’s and are now used in endo-scopes in most major hospitals worldwide, in high brightness projection display systems, and for a wide variety of other high performance applications.
The PE125BF and PE125BUV Cermax® lamps have an integrated parabolic reflector, enabling high intensity, focused output of ultraviolet, visible, and infrared radiation. With their internal reflector and rugged ceramic body construction, Cermax® lamps are the safest and most compact alternative to conventional quartz xenon lamps. This makes them ideal for applications that require 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 lamps internal reflector.
In addition to lamps, PerkinElmer Optoelectronics manufactures Cermax® arc lamp power supplies, lamp holders, OEM lighting systems, and fiber optic light sources.
