The AvaLight-CAL-xxx range of lamps are spectral calibration lamps.

 

They're available with a number of different bulb types - Mercury-Argon (253.6-922.5 nm), Neon (337-1084.5 nm), Argon (696.5-1704 nm), Zinc (202.5-636.2 nm) and Cadmium (214.4-643.8 nm) versions. The major lines including their relative intensity and structures are shown below.

​

The standard SMA905 connector supplies an easy connection between the lamp and optical fibre, making the AvaLight-CAL a low cost wavelength calibration system for any fibre optic spectrometer. When used in conjunction with AvaSoft-FULL spectroscopy software, a simple automatic re-calibration procedure is available.

The AvaLight-CAL-Mini, AvaLight-CAL-AR-Mini, AvaLight-CAL-Neon-Mini all come in the new Mini-housing, and are all equipped with a connector on the rear backplane enabling switching the unit on/off remotely with a TTL signal.

The AvaLight-CAL can also be delivered in rackmountable version, to be integrated in Avantes 19” Rack-mount or the 9.5” desktop housing.

 

The PS-12V/1.0A power supply should be ordered separately.
