1100 Series - High Stability Flashlamps
1100 Series FX-1160
High Output, Short Arc Xenon Flashlamp
with Internal Reflector
Description
The FX-1160 Reflector Lamp has
greater than 40% more usable light
intensity than our standard FX-1150
and is completely interchangeable.
PerkinElmer customers have the
option of either taking advantage of
the greatly increased light output or
they can operate the FX-1160 at a
reduced input energy. Lower energy
operation equates to increased lamp
life and stability.
The hemispherical reflector internal to
the FX-1160 should not be confused
with competitive types employing
paraboloids or ellipsoids in which all
of the forward direct light is nonrecov-
erable and becomes a serious source
of optical scattering. PerkinElmer’s
FX-1160 has an electrode orientation
which does not block the forward light
emission and therefore does not cause
a “black hole” in the output beam pro-
file.
The optical design of the FX-1160 is
ideal for use with lenses and fiber
bundles, and provides the additional
advantage of reduced optical noise by
preventing back-plane scattering
caused by the pin base. Applications
that will benefit from this new
PerkinElmer product introduction
include: Absorption Spectroscopy,
Fluorimetry, HPLC and Machine
Vision.
