Excelitas Technologies Introduced a new line of IR Lamps. Source: Excelitas Technologies Corp.Excelitas Technologies Corp. recently introduced Cermax IR, an IR-emitting light source that offers flexibility, far-field projection and a wide range of performance response for security, environmental monitoring and other applications. The Cermax IR has the widest array of versatile noble fill-gases available, including Krypton and different ratio mixes of xenon-to-krypton. The IR output level can be customized for specific application requirements.
Cermax IR uses the same rugged, reflector-integrated body as Excelitas’ other industry-recognized medical and industrial Cermax products. It is designed for use in domestic security, environmental monitoring and gas detection (e.g., for refineries and chemical processing plants), for border control applications and semiconductor wafer defect detection.
“The Cermax IR Series offers the advantage of creating a very broad array of spectral outputs since each of the fill gases and their ratios have a unique IR fingerprint,” said James Clements, product manager at Excelitas. “This allows OEMs and Design Engineers the ability to tailor their product design to a specific set of performance characteristics, with unprecedented IR emitting flexibility.”
In addition to various gases and fill pressures, a tremendous range of wattages, from 125 W to 2.4 kW, is available in the highly efficient, robustly designed and easily integrated Cermax IR.
