X-Strobe pictured with optional nosepiece and fiber optic bundle |
| The X-Strobe Series is an advanced machine vision illumination strobe system. It's high output, long life, small size and superior reliability combine to make the X-Series the most versatile fiber optic stroboscopes available. These products incorporate the latest innovations in Xenon flashlamp technology, Power supply engineering, trigger performance and reflector design while meeting CE requirements. The Xenon Flashlamp produces intense pulses of radiant energy covering the ultraviolet (UV), visible (VIS) and near infrared (NIR). When coupled to a CCD/CID camera system, the strobe "freezes motion" which eliminates blur and enhances image quality. Several variations of the X-Strobe Series are available; each optimized for maximum light output at a specific flash rate. External signal inputs allow you to further customize the stroboscope to your unique application.

Notes: All values are nominal; specifications subject to change without notice.- Maximum flash rate at 600 Vdc; the numbers in parenthesis represent the range of flash rates at adjusted lamp voltage (400 - 600 Vdc). Flash rate = (E = ½ CV2).
- Energy at 400-600 Vdc
- Approximate values measured at 1/3 peak of light pulse.
- Approximate light output at 600 VDC into 0.9" (23 mm) diameter fiber optic light guide. Numerical aperture 0.5
- Approximate light output at 600 VDC into 0.5" (13 mm) fiber optic light guide.
- Approximate light output at 600 VDC into 0.27" (7 mm) fiber optic light guide.
- Maintaining >50% light output.
- Increasing lamp voltage will decrease lamp service life.
- Delay between flash command and light output is 8 µsec typical.
- Optional fiber optic nosepieces: Fostec 0.72" ID (MVS-23), Volpi 0.59" ID (MVS-24), or Dolan Jenner 1.0" ID (MVS-25).
