Product catalog summary
Introduction
The document provides technical specifications and operational details for the Series 30 infrared emitters, specifically the IR-30 and IR-35 models, produced by Scitec Instruments Ltd. These emitters are designed for use in laboratory or field instrumentation due to their long life and stable properties.

Product Overview
The IR-30 and IR-35 are coil-wound, supported infrared sources mounted on TO-5 headers. The IR-30 operates at a steady state temperature of approximately 950°C when powered with 4.2 watts (2.5 volts, 1.7 amps). The IR-35 model includes a parabolic reflector to enhance energy collimation.

Specifications
  • Active Area: 1.8 mm x 1.8 mm
  • Emissivity: ~0.75
  • Temperature: 950°C
  • Voltage: 2.5 volts (AC or DC)
  • Current: 1.7 amps
  • Lifetime: 25,000 hours at 2.5 volts
  • Diameter: IR-30: 9.14mm, IR-35: 12.57mm
  • Length: IR-30: 30.6mm, IR-35: 16.41mm
  • IR-35 Output: 11x the output of the IR-30 on-axis

Performance Characteristics
The IR-30 can be pulsed up to 1 Hz with increased power input, achieving a modulation depth of approximately 32% at a 50% duty cycle with 3.5 volts and 7.1 watts. The IR-35's parabolic reflector significantly enhances the on-axis output.

Operational Considerations
These IR sources do not require operation in a controlled or sealed atmosphere. For applications requiring higher modulation speeds, the Series 50 IR sources are recommended.

Engineering Data
The document includes charts illustrating the relationship between temperature, current, and power against voltage for both IR-30 and IR-35 models, highlighting their operational efficiency and longevity.

IR Source Series 30-1

Series 30 – IR30 and IR-35 Coil wound 4.2 Watt TO5 Mounted Infra-Red Emitters These IR sources are coil-wound, supported IR Sources, mounted on TO-5 headers. They are appropriate for use in lab or field instrumentation due to their long life and stable properties. IR-35 – the IR-30 with parabolic reflector The IR-30 Series of IR sources are coil-wound, supported IR Sources, mounted on TO-5 headers. At steady state, the coiled filament operates at ~950°C when powered with 4.2 watts (2.5 volts, 1.7 amps). They can be pulsed up to 1 Hz with a greater power input. When operated at 1 hertz, 50% duty cycle with 3.5 volts, 7.1 watts, the output is a well defined saw tooth with approximately 32% modulation depth. This product is available as the IR-30, without reflector, and the IR-35 which has a parabolic reflector to collimate the energy. Operation in a controlled or sealed atmosphere is not required. For higher modulation speeds, the Series 50 IR sources should be considered. Scitec Instruments Ltd Bartles Industrial Estate North Street Redruth Cornwall TR15 1HR United Kingdom t. f. i. e.
