The STN-SL5-DH UV-VIS Light Source is a miniature Deuterium and tungsten halogen light source that covers the 190-2500 nm range. The lamp combines the Deuterium Spectrum with the Tungsten Halogen spectrum to form a single optical path. The deuterium and halogen lamps can be individually turned on or off and have a front and rear panel shutter control. The STN-SL5-DH lamp connects via fiber optic cable to cuvette holders, dip probes, and flow cells, with the return signal routed to the spectrometer via SMA 905 input connector.
Dual Lamps & Shutter: The deuterium and halogen lamps can be individually turned on/off and have a front panel shutter control button for taking a quick dark spectra reference. The lamps can also be adjusted for maximum signal.
Miniature Size: Its small size of 1.5 x 2.5 x 6″ makes it a perfect match for our BLUE-Wave or BLACK-Comet spectrometers. A small footprint makes this a great lamp for bench top applications.
Portability: The combination of both lamps into one small enclosure saves money and reduces complexity to provide the ultimate UV-VIS light source for portability. 12VDC power requirements easily allow you to run off our battery pack accessories for hours of field work.
