 Cool
Red Infrared Light Source
Our Cool Red Infrared Light
Source is designed specifically
for infrared fiber-based
spectroscopy. Its unique optical
and thermal design couples light
energy from a silicon Nitride
emitter, glowing at 1500
ºKelvin.
The Cool Red
works beautifully as a
complement to mid-infrared
analyzers or in any general
application where high-intensity
infrared light is required.
This light source
offers many unique features and
an ergonomic design. For systems
that require optical modulation,
an integrated optical shutter
can be modulated at frequencies
of up to 200 Hz. The shutter can
be driven externally through a
15-pin digital interface. If no
external drive is available, the
shutter can be driven internally
by an integrated adjustable
square wave generator. Frequency
can be continually adjusted
through the control knob on the
front panel from .5 Hz to 200
Hz. The digital output for this
signal can be taken from the
same 15-pin interface and used
to synchronize other devices.
