*2 This value indicates the maximum irradiance when the lamp is new and operated at the maximum current (100%).
It serves as a reference for estimating how long 1 SUN can be maintained under ideal operating conditions.
*3 Operation below 70% may cause the lamp output to become unstable.
*4 The value indicates the area over which the above optical performance is specified.
*5 The value is the distance from the irradiation exit surface of the instrument to the Effective Irradiated Area.

Dimensions & Arc Monitor
Using a 3-axis precision table,
the lamp arc is set to its predetermined position.
This then reproduces the optical performance described above.
