    Description

    Vintage (years 70'), low-repetition frequency linear flashlamp to pump Nd:glass or ruby laser rods, or for stroboscopic application. Lamp type IFP200, made in Russian Federation. Discharge dimensions: 5 mm dia. x 200 mm length, ideally should match the laser rod size.
    Good for rods of 5 mm - 7 mm dia. and 180 mm - 220 mm length.
    Outer diameter 7 mm, largest outer diameter 11 mm. Quartz tube seal protuberance exceeds with extra 8 mm the largest tube diameter. Total flashtube length (with electrodes): 295 mm.
    New, never used, label from original box attached.
    Several electrical characteristics highlighted below (from NBS Technical Note 835, pp. 104, 1974). Min. voltage drop: 450 V. Operating voltage: 500 V. Firing voltage: 2 kV. Ave. power: 27 W. Peak power: 140 kW. Internal resistance: 2.0 ohm. Discharge energy: 200 J. Energy storage capacitor: 1600 uF (uF = microfarad). Pulse duration: 1600 us (us = microsecond). Repetition frequency: 0.13 Hz. Lifetime (no. of pulses): 10
    4
    . Calculated series inductance: 180 uH (uH = microhenry). The electrodes have polarity, the cathode is near the glass protuberance, at the larger tube diameter end. The dark appearance on the cathode side is from manufacturing, and not from the use of the flashlamp. Intended for laser hobbyists, for educational purposes, as a source of stroboscopic visible light, as a source of UV light, or as a collectible item.
