PE175BF

The PE175BF is an innovative lamp design in the specialty lighting industry. These lamps were introduced in the early 1980's and are now used in endoscopes in most major hospitals worldwide, in high brightness projection display systems, and for a wide variety of other high performance applications.

The PE175BF and PE175BUV 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 PE175BF 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 PE175BF, PerkinElmerOptoelectronics manufactures Cermax® arclamp power supplies, lamp holders, OEM lighting systems, and fiber optic light sources.
