Overview
The
HL-3 Series of Halogen Calibrated Light Sources for the VIS-Shortwave NIR (350 nm-1100 nm) is a
tungsten-halogen light source that provides known absolute intensity values at several wavelengths,
expressed in µW/cm²/nm and in a radiant flux in µW/nm for the INT models. Since the spectral intensity
of the HL-3 Series can be traced to an intensity standard traceable to the National Institute of Standards
and Technology (NIST), it is specifically designed for calibrating the absolute spectral response of your
system.
Note
If you have a spectrometer setup that is highly sensitive, you may oversaturate it.
