An arc lamp is not designed to be frequently turned off and on and doing so will dramatically lower its service life. In addition, each time it is turned on it requires the power supply to ignite it with a 20,000V+ spark. THe best option for performing exposure testing is to integrate an electronic shutter system inside the beam homogenizer. The electronic shutter is computer controlled with an activation time of <150ms. Software for the shutter controller is included with this item. The standard shutter controller connects to a computer via RS232. RS232-USB converters are available and work with this product. In addition to computer control the shutter can be controlled via a toggle switch on the shutter controller box.

This shutter can be used with any high powered light source and can effectivley block a 5" diameter beam. See the brochure information for a mounting pattern.

This device can be controllable through Sciencetech's new line of Touch Screen power supplies (including automated explosure time control).
Please note leaving the shutter closed for exteremly long periods of time while the arc lamp is on may cause damage to the motorized components.

Sciencetech's 120-9045 high speed shutter is a recommended accessory with Sciencetech's area scan CCD detectors, but can also be used with Sciencetech's LDA photodiodes or InGaAs linear array detectors. This shutter mounts inside a Sciencetech spectrograph behind the input port. Due to its sturdy steel construction, it can withstand approximately 5W/mm^2 (up to about 200 degrees Celsius). This product includes both the shutter and the controller, and can be either manually controlled (via externally mounted button) or computer controlled.

The standard shutter controller connects to a computer via RS232. RS232-USB converters are available and work with this product. In addition to computer control, the shutter can be controlled via an interface on the power supply.

This shutter can be used with any mid-ranged powered light source and can effectivley block a 3" diameter beam. See the brochure information for a mounting pattern.

The shutter can also be controlled through Sciencetech's touch screen power supplies, including automated opening and closing of the shutter as well as preprogrammed exposure times. Ask your authorized Sciencetech technical sales staff member if you are uncertain whether your system includes one of our new power supplies.

Please note that leaving the shutter closed for extremely long periods of time while the arc lamp is on may cause damage to the motorized components.

The SH-XLH-B is a computer controlled shutter for 201, LH-S, XLH-S lamp houses and SF/SLB solar simulators. Based on the successful SSES lines of blade shutters for Sciencetech's line of high powered solar simulators.
An arc lamp is not designed to be frequently turned off and on and doing so will dramatically lower its service life. In addition, each time it is turned on it requires the power supply to ignite it with a 20,000V+ spark. The best option for performing exposure testing is to integrate an electronic shutter system with the lamp house or solar simulator. This electronic shutter has an activation time of <150ms.

The SH-XLH-B can be controlled using Sciencetech 601 or 501 series power supplies (including automated explosure time control). Alternatively, a shutter controller model SH-C and SCI-SHUTTER Software are available for controlling the shutter. The SH-C controller is not included with this shutter.

This shutter can be used with any high powered light source and can effectively block a 2" diameter beam.
This shutter is closed frame and the shutter mechanism is not exposed. For an open frame shutter please see the SH-2-B-OF product.
