Deuterium lamp

Deuterium lamps, hollow cathode lamps and other light sources from Heraeus are engineered for long lifetime, high precision and stability.

Heraeus has launched a new generation of its DX long-life deuterium lamp which offers precision of the light output towards the end of this lifetime. This stability determines the quality of the analytical results.

In numbers: even after 2000 h operating time, Heraeus guarantees a noise level below 2 x 10-5 AU, which is claimed to be one full order of magnitude better than the current industry standard. From the outside, the DX lamp looks different. The shine-through version of the lamp shows the new body construction that combines ceramic parts with metal for optimal mechanical precision and longevity.

The DX lamp has been approved by leading HPLC instrument makers after extensive tests; it is also available as a replacement lamp for many spectroscopy instruments that are still equipped with different lamps.
