Microwave-powered Lamp At the heart of the lamp is the Heraeus Noblelight microwave-powered bulb. Power stability and spectral consistency over long periods of time are the hallmarks of the microwave energized lamp system.
Modular Lamps The modular design facilitates easy maintenance and replacement. Modular power supplies can be grouped for electrical control simplicity. Control flexibility is enhanced by the modular design, easy control settings, and prewired interconnections.

Interchangeable BulbsA variety of bulbs is available, each having a characteristic UV spectral output, allowing the matching of bulb energy to the photochemical response to yield the highest cure efficiency.
High Efficiency ReflectorsAn optional, patented back reflector collects light energy and delivers it uniformly around the target, substantially increasing the efficiency of the full elliptical reflector. In combination with the small diameter, high radiance bulbs, this reflector system produces the highest UV irradiance per watt of power of any lamp system.
The Following Reflector Systems are Available: ∏ R500: High reflectance over the entire spectral range; ∏ Dichroic: Enhanced UV reflectance, removes most visible
and infrared energy.
F10T and F6 Reflector SystemThe housing, which holds the secondary elliptical reflector, quartz tube, attachments and fittings (such as nitrogen connection), is designated F10T (for 10-inch lamps) or F6 (for 6-inch lamps). This housing is attached to the lamp housing by means of clamp-action latches. When attached, the optics of a full elliptical system are achieved. The electrodeless bulb is located at the primary focus (in the irradiator), and the product runs through the secondary focus. The accuracy and repeatability of the attachment to the lamp is governed by hard metal stops and pins. The F10T2 model separates differently than the F10T, in a manner that the fittings and quartz tube remain in place on the lamp assembly.

A variation of the standard F10T. Its design provides the following benefits: ∏ A fixed skirt provides additional light shielding and end
fittings for the quartz tube, which remains in place when the F10T2 is detached.
∏ A 10" quartz tube may be easily removed from the front. ∏ The fixed quartz tube allows observation of the product in
place, condition of quartz tube, and reflector.
Available for all Heraeus Noblelight Lamps: ∏ F300S: 1.8 kW, 6-inch (300 watt/inch) lamps are
compact, ideal for small systems; ∏ LightHammer® 6 Mark II: 3 kW, 6-inch (500 watt/inch)
lamps are compact, high power and come with a solid-state variable power supply;
∏ F450T, VPS/I250: 3 kW, 10-inch (300 watt/inch) lamps provide the highest irradiance per watt of any lamp system;
∏ F600S, VPS/I600: 6 kW, 10-inch (600 watt/inch) lamps provide higher total power and a larger target size. Two-power level control (F600S) or variable power control (VPS/I600) are available.
Quick StartThe microwave-powered lamp is well known for its ability to develop full power output within a few seconds. It can be turned off instantly and can be restarted almost immediately.

Air-cooled SystemThe microwave-powered lamp is air cooled; push-pull cooling is recommended. The quartz tube is held by a Teflon® gasket which seals it from outside air. The lamp and reflector system are cooled by means of both positive and negative-pressure blowers, which direct the cooling air through the lamp.
Multiple Power LevelsSeveral systems can operate at multiple power levels: The F600S system provides a user-selectable setting of 65% and 100% of full power to the irradiator. The VPS power supply provides continuously adjustable power in the range of 35% to 100% of full power.
In a multi-lamp system, any lamp can be switched on or off, providing an even wider range of power control. Lamp modules can be energized in sequence and coordinated with line speed.
End PlatesThe F10T, F10T2, and F6 housings are equipped with flat end plates, to which fittings and attachments are mounted. A variety of fittings may be selected and supplied by Heraeus Noblelight, or may be user-designed.
