Spectral lamps are discharge lamp that emit the line spectrums of inert gases and metal vapors with high luminance or radiance. They are used wherever a line spectrum or monochromatic radiation is required. Applications: Optics, radiation physics, spectroscopy, chemical engineering and medicine. Safety: Because of the risk of being blinded, UV radiation and high internal radiation during operation, spectral lamps may only be used in enclosed purpose-built housings. Suitable filters should be used to ensure that the UV radiation is reduced to an acceptable level. |
