For over 70 years IREM has been offering specific products and solutions for the professional lighting sectors that use Xenon lamps.
Xenon arc lamps are gas discharge lamps that operate with continuous current (DC). An electric arc, flowing through two electrodes inside a bulb ionized with xenon gas at high pressure, produces a bright white light closely to the natural sunlight, the closest reproducible artificially. Xenon arc lamps are used in cinema projection, in theaters, in marine searchlights and for specialized industrial uses, especially in solar simulation applications.
Many applications use these lamps also because they can be re-ignited in any cooling condition. When triggered, even when cold, full brightness is reached instantly.
One of the peculiarities of the short arc Xenon lamp is that of producing bright light, normally used for the design of large events that have, as their main feature, a well-focused beam of light.
Suitable products for Xenon lamps:
- high voltage igniters specifically designed for the ignition of short arc Xenon lamps with power from 150W to 15000W
- High quality electronic ballasts specifically designed to ensure optimal operation and long life for short arc Xenon lamps from 450W to 10000W
