Irradiation for boroscopy must offer one thing above all else, namely maximum reliability.
Boroscopy is used in particular in the aviation industry as part of maintenance work on turbines, engines and other technical equipment.
To enable complex repairs to be completed wit complete success the irradiation lamps used for boroscopy must have high luminance and an excellent color rendering index (CRI).
Short-arc mercury vapor lamps are gas discharge lamps in which the discharge arc burns in an atmosphere of mercury vapor at high pressure. OSRAM offers a selection of short-arc lamps with outputs ranging from 120 W to 200 W, equipped with a reflector. For boroscopy OSRAM HXP lamps are used because they combine outstanding quality with long life.
