Wavelength (nm)
Extremely bright and heatless light source
which can illuminate desired wavelength.
The MAX-303, 300W xenon light source, is the perfect illuminator with
complete heat blocking design, using an originally designed mirror module.
The MAX-303 has all useful functions such as mirror module, filter wheel,
ND variable control, timed shutter and remote control.
Applications
Monochromatic Light with Optical Filters
- Bright monochromatic light
- Instead of multiple wavelength laser
- Output beam is brighter than monochromator
- Selectable various wavelength by optical filters
- Unwanted IR heat and stray light are removed by mirror module

UV Filter Example : XHQA254
Collimator lens reduces the
divergence of light from the
light guide and provide uniform
light output.
It is suitable for directional
backlighting which requires
clear silhouette of an object.
The illuminating light from
the MAX-303 is delivered to
the point of use by the light
guide efficiently. We carry
single legged light guides
as well as multi-legged types
for your different needs.
