PE500C-13F

The Cermax® xenon arc PE500C-13F and PE500C-13UV lamp is an innovative lamp design in the specialty lighting industry. These lamps were introduced in the early 1980's and PE500C-13F and PE500C-13UV 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-13F and PE500C-13UV 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® PE500C-13F and PE500C-13UV lamps are the safest and most compact alternative to conventional quartz xenon lamps.
This makes PE500C-13F and PE500C-13UV 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 PE500C-13F and PE500C-13UV lamp power supplies, lamp holders, OEM
lighting systems, and fiber optic light sources.
