Spectral Irradiance/Illuminance Standards

OL Series 200, 220, 245 OL Series 200, 220, 245
High Accuracy Standards of Spectral Irradiance

These standards consist of 1000-W, 200-W and 45-W Tungsten-halogen lamps which are calibrated over all or part of the 250 to 2500 nm wavelength range. The 1000-W and 200-W versions can be obtained with two levels of accuracy: high accuracy and super high accuracy. The High Accuracy Standards of Spectral Irradiance have a transfer uncertainty relative to the NIST Scale of ±1 - 2%. The Super High Accuracy Standards have a transfer uncertainty relative to the NIST Scale of ±0.5%. In addition, the 1000-W and 200-W versions can be obtained with calibration out to 4500 nm. Illuminance, color temperature and chromaticity values are also supplied with those standards calibrated over the visible spectrum.

OL FEL OL FEL
High Accuracy Irradiance Standard

The OL FEL standard a is a 1000-W FEL type lamp which is calibrated over all or part of the 250 to 4500 nm wavelength range. The lamp bases have been converted to a medium bi-post base as recommended by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). This special lamp base improves alignment accuracy which minimizes uncertainties due to positioning and orientation of the lamp. The OL FEL can be obtained with two levels of accuracy: high accuracy and super high accuracy. The High Accuracy Standards of Spectral Irradiance have a transfer uncertainty relative to the NIST Scale of ±1%. The Super High Accuracy Standards have a transfer uncertainty relative to the NIST Scale of ±0.5%. Illuminance, color temperature and chromaticity values are also supplied with those standards calibrated over the visible spectrum.

OL Series 100 OL Series 100
Solar Constant Irradiance Standard

The OL 100 consists of a 1000-W tungsten-halogen lamp mounted in a slip-cast, fused silica reflector. The diffuse reflector increases the irradiance by a factor of about three. The standard can be obtained with calibrations for spectral irradiance over the wavelength range of 300 to 2500 nm and for total irradiance. The total irradiance of the OL 100 is on the order of 136 mW/cm2.

OL Series UV-40 OL Series UV-40
Ultraviolet Irradiance Standard

The OL UV-40 consists of a stable, 40 Watt deuterium lamp with a fused silica window. The UV standard has a peak irradiance around 200 nm and is calibrated over the range of 200 to 400 nm.

OL Series 752-10 OL Series 752-10
Plug-In Standard of Spectral Irradiance

The OL Series 752-10 consists of a pre-aligned, tungsten-halogen lamp calibrated for spectral irradiance over all or part of the 250 to 2500 nm wavelength region. The standard mounts directly to the integrating sphere cosine collector of the OL Series 754 and OL Series 750 Spectroradiometers. The plug-in/pre-aligned concept eliminates tedious and time consuming set-up and alignment procedures that are normally associated with spectroradiometric calibrations.

OL Series 752-12 OL Series 752-12
Plug-In Ultraviolet Irradiance Standard

The OL 752-12 consists of a prealigned, deuterium lamp standard calibrated for spectral irradiance over 200 to 400 nm wavelength region. The standard mounts directly to the integrating sphere cosine collector of the OL Series 754 and OL Series 750 Spectroradiometers.

OL 345 OL 345
Radiometric and Photometric Calibration Standard

The OL 345 Calibration Standard consists of a 45 Watt tungsten-halogen lamp and a removable flashed opal diffuser mounted in an air-cooled cylindrical housing. With the diffuser in place, the uniformly radiating 15.5 cm2 source serves as standard of spectral radiance over the wavelength range of 350 nm to 1100 nm and as a standard of luminance. When the diffuser is removed, the OL 345 serves as a standard of spectral irradiance over the 250 to 2500 nm wavelength region and as a standard of illuminance.
