  • Page 9: Chapter 1: Setup

    Chapter 1 Setup Overview The HL-3 Series of Halogen Calibrated Light Sources for the VIS-Shortwave NIR (350 nm-1100 nm) is a tungsten-halogen light source that provides known absolute intensity values at several wavelengths, expressed in µW/cm²/nm and in a radiant flux in µW/nm for the INT models. Since the spectral intensity of the HL-3 Series can be traced to an intensity standard traceable to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), it is specifically designed for calibrating the absolute spectral response of your system.
  • Page 10: Models Available

    1: Setup Models Available HL-3 Series light source models are available in regular (350 – 1100 nm or 350 – 1050 nm) and extended (EXT models) (350 – 2400 nm) wavelength ranges. The INT models are used with an integrating sphere (rather than a CC-3 cosine-corrected irradiance probe).

    1: Setup Connecting a Spectrometer to the HL-3-INT-CAL Models When Using an Integrating Sphere ► Procedure Use the following procedure to connect your HL-3 light source to a spectrometer when using an integrating sphere (INT models): 1. The HL-3-CAL-INT and HL-3-CAL-INT-EXT have a diffusor for light output. Place the HL-3- CAL-INT output diffusor at the aperture of your integrating sphere.

  • Page 15: Appendix A: Calibration Basics

    Appendix A Calibration Basics Overview Calibrated systems, independent of the particular calibrated unit, are always traceable to national standards. A calibrated item is comparable to all calibrated items which are calibrated for the same calibrated unit. Each measurement result has an uncertainty, and the level of uncertainty is given either for one single standard deviation (k = 1) or for two standard deviations (k = 2), which is often named as expanded uncertainty.
  • Page 16: Uncertainty Level Calculation For Hl-3 Plus Family

    A: Calibration Basics Uncertainty Level Calculation for HL-3 plus Family Each realistic measurement has an uncertainty and therefore, a calibration has an uncertainty. The uncertainty should be validated seriously since this reflects how reliable the calibration is. The following international standards define the uncertainty and are describing how the uncertainty should be derived: ...
