Product Overview
The Sylvania 69237 XBO 150 W/CR OFR is a professional short arc xenon lamp engineered for applications requiring a compact, stable, high-intensity point source. Its 6000K daylight color and Ra 98 color rendering support applications where accurate illumination and optical consistency are critical.
This lamp is commonly used in endoscopy, microscopy, surgical headlamps, fiber illumination, solar simulation, imaging, and scanning equipment. The double-ended construction, DC operation, and defined anode/cathode bases require exact equipment compatibility.
Proper operation depends on matching the lamp to the correct power supply, polarity, cooling system, burning position, and enclosed lamp housing. This is a specialty lamp for professional equipment, not a general-purpose lighting product.
Compatible Applications
- Endoscopy illumination systems
- Microscopy equipment
- Surgical headlamps
- Fiber illumination systems
- Solar simulation equipment
- Imaging and scanning systems
- Specialty medical and optical equipment
