Description

Oriel Instruments 68709 500W Mercury Arc Lamp Housing w/ Optics For Parts

This is a 500W mercury arc lamp housing assembly designed for high-intensity UV and visible light applications. The unit includes integrated optics, an arc lamp igniter, forced-air cooling fan, and coaxial power cables with thermocouple connector.

Specifications & What's Included

  • Model: 68709 | Serial: 212 | Manufactured November 1995
  • 500W mercury arc lamp with removable center section
  • Integrated arc lamp igniter and forced-air fan assembly
  • POS/NEG coaxial cables (UHF connectors) and thermocouple included
  • Rear internal reflection mirror (1 of 2) missing
  • Made in United States

Applications

Mercury arc lamps of this type were used in spectroscopy systems, photolithography equipment, and optical testing instruments. These housings typically operated as the light source component in research and industrial setups requiring intense broadband UV-visible illumination. The 500W output and optics assembly indicate use in precision optical systems where collimated or focused high-energy light was required.

Condition: For Parts or Not Working
This Oriel Instruments 68709 500W Mercury Arc Lamp Housing is missing one of its two internal mirrors — specifically the rear mirror used for forward reflection. Because of this missing optic, the unit is sold AS-IS for parts or repair only. It has not been tested. The outer white enclosure and black inner housing are present and structurally intact. The integrated arc lamp igniter assembly, cooling fan, coaxial POS/NEG power cables (UHF connectors), and thermocouple cable are included. The center arc lamp and housing section can be removed and used separately. Please view our photo set and contact us if you have any questions.
