Excelitas Technologies Introduces µPAX-2 Pulsed Xenon Light Source

WALTHAM, MA – Excelitas Technologies® Corp. introduces the µPAX-2, a 2-Watt pulsed Xenon light source that provides microsecond-duration pulses of broadband light with exceptional arc stability.

The new µPAX-2 combines an innovative lamp design with state-of-the-art circuitry and components into a packaged Xenon light source that simplifies integration. This compact solution contains the flash lamp, trigger circuit and power supply in an EMI-suppressant enclosure. Applications for Excelitas’ µPAX-2 include UV/Vis spectrophotometry, point-of-care analytics, environmental and absorption analysis, fluorescence triggering, immunoassays and microplate readers.

The µPAX-2 offers a superior stability guarantee (≤ 1.0% CV) compared to competitive products. Its broadband, EMI suppression design minimizes electromagnetic interference with other devices to provide OEMs with a precision-aligned light source that offers efficient coupling, high stability and maximum reliability to meet the demanding needs of analytical applications.

µPAX-2 will debut at Photonics West in San Francisco, CA, January 31 – February 2, 2017 at Booth # 1423. For more information, visit http://www.excelitas.com
