FX-4400

　　High Output Xenon Flashlamp

　　D A T A S H E E T

　　Description

　　The new FX-4400 Light Source from

　　PerkinElmer Optoelectronics is a

　　compact, high-output, long-life pulsed

　　xenon flashlamp that offers

　　exceptional arc stability, microsecond

　　pulse durations and a high-intensity

　　continuous line spectrum from the

　　deep UV to the far IR.

　　The lamp utilizes an integral parabolic

　　reflector to provide a collimated output

　　beam and is capable of operating at

　　up to 60 Watts average power. This

　　new design measures approximately

　　the same size as our traditional pulsed

　　xenon lamps, yet provides up to 20X

　　the light output intensity. This allows

　　customers the option of either taking

　　advantage of the greatly increased

　　light output or operating the FX-4400

　　at a reduced input energy for

　　increased lamp life and stability.

　　Lamp life exceeds 1 billion flashes,

　　when operating at an input energy of

　　up to 0.5 Joules per flash. The

　　maximum flash rate is 1 kHz for an

　　input energy of 60 milliJoules.

　　Several window materials are

　　available to provide customers with

　　transmission output ranging from

　　160nm to 20 microns.

　　PerkinElmer will work closely with

　　OEM's to customize the light source

　　and related electronics to meet the

　　most demanding applications.

　　Also, our broad technical expertise in

　　light sources, optics, detectors, light

　　management and signal processing

　　allows us to work with and provide

　　OEM's with unique Sensor solutions

　　that generate, control and measure

　　light.

　　Electrical Specifications (all lamps)

　　Notes:

　　1) Input Energy or E = ½CV2 where E = Discharge Energy (Joules)

　　C = Discharge Capacitor Value

　　V = Discharge Voltage

　　The lamp is capable of an input energy higher than 1.0 J/Flash but

　　long life can not be guaranteed.

　　2) Maximum Average Power or PAVE = EF where

　　PAVE = Average Power (Watts)

　　E = Discharge Energy

　　F = Rate of flashes in pulses per second

　　Additional cooling required when operating above 40 Watts.

　　3) Flash rate must be set so as not to exceed 60-Watts Average

　　Power. (See Note 2) To operate the lamp at greater than 1000Hz

　　consult with a PerkinElmer Product Specialist.

　　4) Life is primarily a function of input energy per flash (E = ½CV2 )

　　but is also influenced by average power and peak current. See

　　curves on this page for typical lamp performance.

　　5) Typical for most operating conditions. Lamp output stability is

　　dependent on a number of variables including input energy, flash rate,

　　optics design, Lite Pac and Power Supply.
