Each light source part number begins with its Legacy Part Number, the predecessor to these light sources. The rest of the part number tells the lamp power and type of lamp included, along with the type of lamp housing and F/# of the condensor lens assembly mounted to each housing. The part number is explained as follows:
Legacy Part Number - Lamp Power and Type - Housing F/#
| Legacy Part Number | Lamp Power and Type | Research Housing F/# |

The following 50-200 W Research Arc Lamp Source configurations are available. Each Lamp Source includes the lamp, socket adapter, housing, lamp housing interconnection cable, and power supply as indicated in the table below.
These are our fully featured, low wattage (50 to 200 W) sources of UVNIR, CW radiation. The small, bright arcs make them ideal for illumination of small targets. These systems come complete with all the necessary components to begin work. These sources include:
Research Arc Lamp Housings with a condenser and a built-in ignitor
OPS-A150 Power Supply
Your choice of 50 - 200 W Hg, Xe or Hg(Xe) DC Arc Lamp
70050 (for Xe and Hg(Xe) arc lamps) or 70051 (for Hg arc lamps) Lamp Housing Interconnection cable
The 67001 , 67005 , 66901 , 66902 , and 66905 Research Lamp Housings can properly operate any 50-500 W DC Arc Lamp offered by Oriel Products. If a particular Light Source Model is purchased from the table above, a different lamp part number can be operated in the included housing by swapping both the socket adapter (if necessary). Please note that the Lamp Housing Interconnection cable may also need to be changed as well. Xe and Hg(Xe) lamps use the70050 Lamp Housing Interconnection cable. Hg lamps require the 70051 Lamp Housing Interconnection cable.

The housing provides a temperature controlled, stable environment for the lamp, and protects personnel from the harmful UV radiation emitted by the lamp. A number of safety features are incorporated into the housing to prevent accidental exposure and lamp overheating. The lamp is held by a socket adapter, which places the arc on the condenser axis. Lamp adjusters, located on the outside of the housing, let you precisely adjust the position to compensate for lamp tolerances.
Of the 30 different 50-200 W Research Arc Lamp Sources offered, five different lamp housings are available. These lamp housings differ only in the condensing lens assembly. The condensing lens assemblies range from single element lenses to the aberration compensated, four element Aspherab® Condensers. The asphere condensers are corrected optics. Their design ensures that they correct spherical aberration and lateral chromatic aberration with minimized longitudinal chromatic aberrations. The proper lamp housing should be chosen based upon:
•Spectral range
•Beam quality and efficiency
•Output beam size
•Collimated or focused beam
Use the table below to aid with the selection process:
| Series | Included Lamp Housing | Condenser Type | Output Beam | Output Beam Size (mm) | Lens Multiplication Factor | Transmittance Range of Lens Material | Size Series |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 66475 | 67001 | F/2.2, fused silica asphere | Collimated | 1.3 | 0.05 | 200 - 2500 | 1.5 inch |
| 66477 | 67005 | F/1, fused silica asphere | Collimated | 1.3 | 0.11 | 200 - 2500 | 1.5 inch |
| 66906 | 66901 | F/1.5, single element fused silica | Collimated | 1.3 | 0.06 | 200 - 2500 | 1.5 inch |
| 66907 | 66902 | F/1, two element fused silica | Collimated | 1.3 | 0.11 | 200 - 2500 | 1.5 inch |
| 66909 | 66905 | F/0.7, four element fused silica Aspherab® | Collimated | 2.7 | 0.20 | 200 - 2500 | 3 inch |
The OPS-A150 delivers constant power to the lamp, has superior stability, and can be computer controlled. An RS 232 or USB interface can be used to remotely control and monitor the lamp\'s power, current, voltage and operating hours. When used with the LIK-LMP Light Intensity controller kit, a very stable intensity output over the long term (over 12 hours of operation) can be maintained.
Even with these low powered sources, UV radiation and ozone are a concern. The easiest solution to the ozone problem is to use an ozone free arc lamp if you do not need output below ~260 nm. If that is not an option, vent the ozone or use our Ozone Eater And Accessories . Take appropriate UV safety precautions; enclose the beam or wear protective equipment.
