Quartz Tungsten Halogen (QTH) lamps are a popular alternative to arc lamps. By comparison, QTH lamps have better output stability, do not produce strong UV light emission, do not have intense spectral emission lines in their output, and do not produce toxic ozone. These advantages over traditional arc lamps make QTH lamps preferable for radiometric and photometric applications as well as excitation sources of visible to NIR light.
- Intense Visible-NIR spectral output with minimal UV emission
- Smooth spectral output curve
- Various lamp wattages available
- Open air mount available for select lamps See All Features

Features
Two 50 W QTH Lamp Choices
Two different 50 W QTH lamps are offered. The 6332 is a short filament type QTH lamp. Short filament QTH lamps have better shock and vibration due to their compact construction and can be more useful for reimaging the filament onto a small input slit of a monochromator, for example. The 6337 is a long filament type QTH lamp. Long filament QTH lamps have an extended average lifetime.
Open Air Mount Option for Select Lamps
For particular QTH lamps, rod mounting is available instead of mounting inside the usual lamp housing setup. Rod mounts are open-air holders that provide a low cost alternative to lamp housings. Additional benefits when using a rod mount include the ability to place the lamp closer to the sample or desired area of illumination and the option of mounting the lamp horizontally () or vertically (). Users that need to collimate and focus the light output of the QTH lamp can select the appropriate lens setup from Newport's line of Lenses.

- Vertical Mount 63965: 63362
