Xenon Light Sources

PX-2 Pulsed Xenon Light Source

PX-2 and HPX-2000

Product Details

Xenon light sources offer very high intensity in the UV and are useful for absorbance, fluorescence or reflectance measurements. Pulsed xenon sources are high intensity with a lower duty cycle, making them ideal for measurements where high intensity UV light can damage the sample.

The PX-2 pulsed Xenon lamp is a high flash rate, short-arc xenon lamp with output from 220-750 nm.

The HPX-2000 is ideal for reflectance or fluorescence spectroscopy applications where often a strong source is required.

The HPX-2000-HP-DUV light source is much more intense, especially in the UV region. Driven by a 75 W source, the HPX-2000-HP-DUV provides output intensity that is almost 4x higher across the entire range compared to the output of the HPX-2000.
