AvaLight-CAL, Spectral Calibration Sources

The AvaLight-CAL is a spectral calibration lamp. It is available with different gases, the standard is HgAr that emits all mercury and argon lines from 254 to well over 922 nm. The major lines and structures are shown on the bottom surface including their relative intensity.

With the standard SMA905 connector, the lamp can quickly be attached to optical fibres and therefore lends itself to easy wavelength calibration of fibre optic spectrometer systems.

In the AvaSoft -FULL software package, an automatic recalibration routine is included.

Other lamps are available for wavelength calibration in other regions such as Neon (340-1100nm) and Argon (600-1704nm).

The AvaLight-CAL can also be delivered as a rackmounted version to be fully integrated in 19" rackmount or 9.5" desktop housing.

A PS-12V/1.0A 12VDC power supply unit ire required for operation.
