New Osram XBO 150/1 Fluorescent Lamp

XBO xenon lamps are short arc lamps in which the luminous arc burns in an atmosphere of pure xenon gas at high pressure. Their main characteristics are:

· High luminance
· Daylight color temperature of approx. 6,000K
· Continuous spectrum in the visible range
· Constant color properties throughout the life time of the lamp
· High arc stability
· DC operation
· Hot restart
· Almost full luminous flux immediately after ignition
· High color rendering index (R_a > 95)

The lamps are available ranging from 75 to 10,000 watts. Lamps rated at less than 450 watts are predominantly used in scientific and technical applications such as:

· Fluorescence Spectrometers
· Light sources for microscopy / fluorescence microscopy
· Light sources for endoscopy / fiber optics
· Graphic scanners
· Color matching lights
· Color measuring units
