Spectrum Tube Power Supply (EHV)

Description

This IEC Power Supply is a self contained unit that runs from 240V.AC mains. A stainless steel rod and sliding clamp supports various lengths of ‘Spectrum Discharge Tube’ and a very high voltage is applied. The high voltage terminal is recessed in a deep socket on the top face of the instrument. The mains cable is removable.
Many different spectrum tubes are available containing different gases. These gases emanate various specific wavelengths of light from the thin middle section of the tube. (These tubes are often energised by a Rhumkorff spark coil or EHV Power Supply.)
NOTE: The hydrogen gas discharge tube requires the highest voltage for correct operation and this power supply provides the correct voltage.

Features of the IEC SPECTRUM LAMP POWER SUPPLY & STAND:
• SAFE: Designed to proper engineering standards of electrical safety.
• COMPACT: The unit takes very little space in the lab.
• EASY TO USE: Power is applied by a single illuminated rocker switch on the front panel. The special adjustable stand supports the tube in the vertical position.
