LS-1 Series Tungsten Halogen Light Sources LS-1 Series Tungsten Halogen Light Sources The LS-1 Series of tungsten halogen light sources are versatile, white-light lamps optimized for use in the VIS- Shortwave NIR range (360-2000 nm). These light sources offer high color temperature, very efficient output, and long bulb life.

LS-1 Series Tungsten Halogen Light Sources 8. Re-insert the two hex bolts and tighten. 9. Connect the LS-1 as described in the Connecting the LS-1 section. You have now properly installed the BG-34 or Teflon disc into the LS-1. Using the Filter Slot on the LS-1 The 3 mm slot between the lamp and the fiber coupler can be used to hold filters or light blocks.

LS-1 Series Tungsten Halogen Light Sources Installing the Blue Filter or Teflon Discs in the R-LS-1 The BG-34 filter and Teflon disc can be permanently installed into the LS-1 to further optimize your experiment. The BG-34 filter amplifies the blue region in relation to the other regions in the spectrum, while the Teflon discs diffuse the light emitted from the R-LS-1.
