Lamp Type: Low pressure vapor discharge lamp.
Fill Gas: Available as pure Sodium vapor (Na) or pure Mercury vapor (Hg).
Required Power: Requires a dedicated High Reactance Ballast or Power Supply with specific starting and operating voltage requirements.
Wattage: Typically low power, in the range of 35 Watts to 100 Watts, optimized for lab use.
Base Type: Standard bulb base or specialized laboratory socket base for secure connection to the power unit.
Monochromatic Source: Sodium lamps provide a highly monochromatic, bright yellow light, simplifying optical measurements in interference and diffraction experiments.
Spectral Calibration: Mercury lamps emit multiple distinct and sharp spectral lines, making them indispensable for calibrating spectroscopes and diffraction gratings.
High Intensity: The lamps are designed to produce a high intensity light output for easy visualization and accurate measurement in laboratory settings.
Long Lifespan: Built with durable glass envelopes and robust electrodes to ensure a long operational life and consistent spectral output over many uses.
Easy Integration: Designed to plug easily into a dedicated lamp power supply unit, which is required to provide the high voltage necessary for lamp ignition and stable operation.
