VIGI-Lux™ Industrial Vision Strobe MVS 4100, 4200

MVS 4100, 4200 Series
Overview
™
The VIGI-Lux MVS 4100 and
MVS 4200 by PerkinElmer are
cost-effective strobes for a wide
variety of industrial inspection
applications. The linear xenon
flashlamp, mounted in a
reflector for maximum intensity,
provides 6 microsecond pulses
at flash rates up to 100 Hz.
The discharge energy-per-flash
remains constant at 180 mJ;
no range-switching is needed.
The Xenon flashlamp in the
VIGI-Lux MVS 4100 and 4200
produces intense pulses of
radiant energy covering the
full light spectrum from the
ultraviolet (UV) to the visible
(VIS) to near infrared (NIR).
The spectral output of the
Xenon lamp when coupled with
CCD, CMOS and CID silicon
cameras freezes motion,
eliminates blur, and enhances
image quality with high intensity
and short duration pulses.
Features and Benefits
These 20 Watt strobes are housed
in a convection-cooled, rugged
enclosure. Threaded holes at the
bottom of the enclosure allow the
unit to be hard mounted.
Universal AC input
(90–230 VAC, 560/60 Hz)
The VIGI-Lux MVS 4100 has an
optically isolated trigger input
and requires an external +5V
TTL pulse to flash. The VIGI-Lux
MVS 4200 has an internal
oscillator and can be run in
either external or internal trigger
mode. It is ideal as a stand-alone
unit for “stroboscopic”
applications.
