PE500C-10F

The Cermax® xenon arc PE500C-10F and PE500C-10UV lamp is an innovative lamp design in the specialty lighting industry. These lamps were introduced in the early 1980's and PE500C-10F and PE500C-10UV 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 PE500C-10F and PE500C-10UV Cermax® lamps have an integrated elliptical 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 PE500C-10F and PE500C-10UV 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 of PE500C-10F and PE500C-10UV are advised because radio frequency starters may damage the lamps internalreflector.

In addition to lamps, PerkinElmerOptoelectronics manufactures Cermax® arc PE500C-10F and PE500C-10UV lamp power supplies, lamp holders, OEM
lighting systems, and fiber optic light sources.
