The MVS-5700 series illuminators are high intensity, low flash rate, Xenon strobes for direct illumination applications. An IR bandpass filter eliminates all the visible light from the Xenon spectrum. The system is ideal as a high intensity, invisible IR source for applications such as license plate illumination on moving vehicles or nighttime surveillance. The flashlamp system is housed in a NEMA type 3R enclosure to provide protection against harsh environments. This strobe can also be used without the filter for any application that requires a large area of intense illumination at flash rates up to 1 kHz. Two power supply options are available with energies up to 20 J and 50 J per flash. The intensity can be controlled with an external reference signal and a trigger input allows you to synchronize the flash with your camera. The spectral output of the Xenon flashlamp covers the full spectrum from ultraviolet (UV) through the visible (VIS) to the near infrared (NIR). The standard IR filter supplied removes all the wavelengths under 780 nm, making the strobe invisible to the human eye. The spectral output can be changed to match your application by simply changing the bandpass filter. Additionally, two reflector options are available for narrow beam (8º) or a wide beam (25º) configuration
