In core scenarios such as spectral analysis, optical detection, scientific research experiments, and industrial quality inspection, accurate wavelength is essential for accurate data; and accurate data leads to reliable conclusions. A spectrometer, monochromator, or spectrophotometer, if its wavelength deviates by 0.1 nm, may distort experimental results, invalidate detection data, and lead to incorrect product determination - all of which require an absolutely reliable, stable, and sharp "spectral scale" for calibration.
SOFN, a company specializing in precision optical light sources for many years, has developed the 7ILM5 wavelength calibration mercury lamp source using imported pen-shaped cold cathode low-pressure mercury lamps and self-developed high-stability drive power supplies. It covers the entire ultraviolet-visible spectrum and provides NIST-level standard spectral lines, millisecond-level stability, ultra-long lifespan, and ready-to-use features, making it the preferred tool for laboratory and production line calibration.
1. Born as a standard: NIST-level standard spectral lines, zero calibration deviation
The 7ILM5 uses cold cathode low-pressure mercury discharge technology, with a built-in high-purity mercury - argon mixed gas, to generate multiple sharp, stable, and traceable atomic characteristic spectral lines. The wavelength values are certified by NIST, making it the "natural benchmark" for spectral calibration:
Core spectral lines (nm): 253.65 (ultraviolet strong peak), 312.57/313.15/313.18, 365.02, 404.66, 435.84, 546.07 (green light reference), 576.96/579.07 (yellow double line, measurement resolution)
Spectral line characteristics: extremely narrow line width (<0.01nm), high intensity, no continuous background, positioning accuracy ±0.05nm, easily calibrating the wavelength error of the spectrometer, allowing the instrument to "hit the mark"
Coverage spectrum: 200–600nm ultraviolet-visible light region, perfectly suitable for calibration of single-beam spectrometers, spectrometers, spectrophotometers, fluorescence instruments, Raman systems, etc., of all types of optical equipment
Say goodbye to blurry continuous light sources and unstable homemade light sources. The 7ILM5 provides an absolute wavelength benchmark through atomic-level fixed energy level transitions, ensuring every calibration has evidence, is reproducible, and traceable.
