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. Applications pulses are advised because radio frequency starters may damage the lamps internal reflector. In addition to lamps, PerkinElmer Optoelectronics manufactures Cermax® arc lamp power supplies, lamp holders, OEM lighting systems, and fiber optic light sources. • Medical and industrial fiber optic illu- • • • • • • minators Machine vision Infrared and visible spotlights/beacons Spectroscopy Microscopy UV Curing Video projection 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 them 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.

Current/power regulated power supplies and PerkinElmer lamp housing units are recommended. 4. Lamp must be operated within recommended current and power range. Over powering may lead to arc instability, hard starting and premature aging. 5. Hot mirror assembly is available for IR filtering. 6. CERMAX lamps are much safer lamps to use than their quartz xenon arc lamp equivalents. However, caution must be practiced when operating lamps because they are under high pressure, require high voltage, reach temperatures up to 200º C, and their IR and UV radiation can cause skin burns and eye damage.
