Tunable KiloArc
Tunable 1000W Xe Light Source
The Tunable KiloArc™ illuminator is the ultimate tunable light source for applications that require high power output with over 100 mW. Combined with HORIBA’s available accessories, including our full line of monochromators and sample compartments, a specialized setup can be created for any experimental requirement.
The Tunable KiloArc illumination system is perfect for applications such as
- Detector calibration
- Solar Simulators
- Photochemistry
- Photo-Activation
- Photobiology
- Photovoltaics
- Spectroscopy
- Optical Teaching Labs
- Dermatology
Key Benefits of the Tunable KiloArcâ„¢ Illuminator
