OSRAM 69217 HBO 100W/2 Mercury Short Arc Lamp
The OSRAM 69217 HBO 100W/2 Mercury Short Arc Lamp is a high-pressure mercury short-arc discharge lamp designed primarily for scientific and medical imaging applications such as fluorescence microscopy and laboratory illumination systems.
This 100W lamp produces a highly concentrated arc of light, delivering approximately 2200 lumens with a stable, high-intensity output ideal for exciting fluorescent dyes and enabling high-resolution imaging. Its compact arc gap ensures excellent optical efficiency and precise light control, making it a standard light source in many research microscopes and optical instruments.
Engineered for precision rather than general lighting, the HBO 100W/2 uses a double-ended design with specialized electrodes and requires proper ballast and ignition equipment. It is commonly used in systems from manufacturers like Zeiss and Leica for fluorescence excitation and scientific observation tasks.
