Ruggedized “Double Seal” for Use in a 6000-Watt Lamp
A method has been developed for greatly increasing the strength and reliability of lamps for use in HMI equipment. The new lamps incorporate a seal/sidearm which has the high-strength properties of tempered glass. This principle of construction has made possible the development of a 6000-W lamp which has greatly increased arc brightness. Because of its small source size, high brightness, and high efficiency, the 6000-W lamp duplicates the operation of the 225-amp carbon arc, using only one-quarter the power.
