The AvaLight-CAL is a spectral calibration lamp. It is available with different gasses, 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 SMA 905 connector the lamp can quickly be attached to optical fibers, and therefore lends itself to an easy wavelength calibration of fiber optic spectrometer systems.
In the AvaSoft-FULL software an automatic recalibration option 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 in a rack mounted version, to be fully integrated in the 19" rack mount or 9.5" desktop housing.
A PS-12V/1.0A 12VDC power adapter should be ordered with the unit.
