OSRAM XBO R 100 W/45 C - Short arc xenon lamp with reflector and cable for endoscopy and microscopy

The OSRAM XBO R 100 W/45 C is a short-arc xenon lamp with an integrated elliptical reflector , designed as a high-luminance point source for endoscopy, microscopy, and fiber optic illumination . It offers a continuous visible spectrum with a color temperature of approximately 6000 K and a CRI of 98 , ensuring stable color rendering throughout its lifespan . It is hot-swappable , dimmable , and comes with a cable/connector for quick integration into medical and scientific equipment. Its 45 mm focal length , 64 mm diameter , and 93 mm length simplify replacement in compatible systems, and it has an average lifespan of 500 hours under proper operating conditions and forced cooling .

Main features

• Color and color rendering : ~ 6000 K (daylight) and Ra 98 for accurate display of fabrics and details.
• High luminance point source : short arc with optimized arc stability for efficient coupling to light guides.
• Operation : 100 W nominal · 12–14 V DC · 7.0–7.4 A · hot restrictrike and wide range regulation .
• Integrated optics : reflector with 45mm focal length ; with cable and connector as standard.
• Construction : FaXP2.5-2x65 base, Ø 64 mm , length 93 mm , weight ~82.5 g , burning position p20 , forced cooling .
• Average lifespan : 500 h (horizontal mounting), maintaining constant color throughout its lifespan.

Product benefits

• Faithful and stable image : CRI 98 and constant 6000 K for visual diagnosis and camera capture.
• Maximum intensity at the point : the high luminance of the short arc delivers a concentrated beam with excellent coupling to fibers.
• Spectral continuity : continuous spectrum in the visible without dominant lines that alter the perceived color.
• Professional operation : instant start, hot restart and regulation to adapt the output to the procedure.

Use cases

• Endoscopy and compatible video processors (e.g., certain Pentax systems).
• Microscopy and light guide illumination in laboratories and industry.
• Imaging & scanning , solar simulation and other scientific applications.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it compatible with Pentax EPK-1000 equipment? Yes, this part number is used in Pentax EPK-1000/EPK-100P processors in manufacturer configurations; always verify the exact part number of your equipment before purchasing.

Can I adjust the lamp? Yes. It is dimmable with the specific XBO power supply indicated by the equipment manufacturer.

Does it require ventilation? Yes. Forced cooling is mandatory to ensure performance and lifespan.

Installation and safety

• Due to its high luminance , UV radiation and high internal pressure in both hot and cold conditions, it must only operate in suitable enclosed housings .
• Always use protective covers when handling and follow the manufacturer's safety instructions .
• Use control equipment (ballast/power supply) specifically designed for XBO lamps and respect DC polarity .
