FX-4401

DATASHEET Optoelectronics FX-4400 High Output Xenon Flashlamp e Pr a in lim ry D a at Description The new FX-4400 Light Source from PerkinElmer Optoelectronics is a compact, high-output, long-life pulsed xenon flashlamp that offers exceptional arc stability, microsecond pulse durations and a high-intensity continuous line spectrum from the deep UV to the far IR. The lamp utilizes an integral parabolic reflector to provide a collimated output beam and is capable of operating at up to 60 Watts average power. This new design measures approximately the same size as our traditional pulsed xenon lamps, yet provides up to 20X the light output intensity. This allows customers the option of either taking advantage of the greatly increased light output or operating the FX-4400 at a reduced input energy for increased lamp life and stability. Lamp life exceeds 1 billion flashes, when operating at an input energy of up to 0.5 Joules per flash. The maximum flash rate is 1 kHz for an input energy of 60 milliJoules. Several window materials are available to provide customers with transmission output ranging from 160nm to 20 microns. PerkinElmer will work closely with OEM's to customize the light source and related electronics to meet the most demanding applications. Also, our broad technical expertise in light sources, optics, detectors, light management and signal processing allows us to work with and provide OEM's with unique Sensor solutions that generate, control and measure light.

See curves on this page for typical lamp performance. 5) Typical for most operating conditions. Lamp output stability is dependent on a number of variables including input energy, flash rate, optics design, Lite Pac and Power Supply.
