Cermax Xenon Short Arc Lamps - PE700C-13F and PE700C-13UV - Datasheet

The Cermax® Xenon arc lamp from Excelitas Technologies is an innovative lamp design in the specialty lighting industry. Cermax Xenon lamps were first introduced in the early 1980s and are now used in diagnostic and surgical endoscopes in most major hospitals worldwide, in high brightness projection display systems, and for a wide variety of high performance applications.

Cermax Xenon lamps, Models PE700C-13F and PE700C-13UV, have an integrated elliptical reflector, enabling high intensity, focused output of ultraviolet, visible, and infrared radiation. With their internal reflector and rugged ceramic body construction, Cermax Xenon lamps are the safest and most compact alternative to conventional quartz xenon lamps. This makes them ideal for applications that require a high degree of illumination control.

Current-regulated or power-regulated power supplies with output ripples of less than 5% are recommended. Single shot ignition pulses are advised because radio frequency starters may damage the lamp’s internal reflector.

In addition to lamps, Excelitas Technologies manufactures Cermax Xenon arc lamp power supplies, lamp holders, OEM lighting systems, and fiber optic light sources.
