Spectral Calibration Lamp, Argon, 10 mA, 500 Hrs Rated Life

The 6030 Spectral Calibration Lamp produces narrow, intense lines from the excitation of Argon gas. This lamp operates at 10 mA and is rated for 500 hours of life. It is used for wavelength calibration of spectroscopic instruments such as monochromators, spectrographs, and spectral radiometers. We call this a pencil lamp because of its size and shape. It is made of double bore quartz tubing with two electrodes at one end sealed into a phenolic handle. A 1 foot (305 mm) long cord with male connector is attached to the end of the handle for connection to the power supply. An AC power supply is required to run this lamp.
