Compact Light Source
Product Code : JA-LOE-7868
The Compact Light Source (SKU JA-LOE-7868) is a bright, rod-mounted lamp unit for optics practicals and demonstrations in school and college physics laboratories. It uses a 12 V, 100 W quartz iodine lamp in a ventilated housing, and apertures on two adjacent sides let it work as an intense line source or, used end-on, as a powerful point source. This 12 V 100 W quartz iodine light source is manufactured in India by JaincoLab for school, college and university optics benches.
Specifications
The light source combines a 12 V, 100 W quartz iodine lamp, a ventilated housing on a stainless steel rod of about 150 mm x 10 mm diameter, two 19 mm diameter apertures on adjacent sides and an 80 cm lead with twin 4 mm plugs.

Uses of the quartz iodine compact light source
On an optics bench the compact light source supplies the bright, well-defined source that lens, mirror, slit and interference experiments depend on, and its rod mount lets it be clamped at the same height as the lenses, screens and holders in the set-up.
- Point-source illumination for image formation by convex lenses and concave mirrors
- Line-source illumination through a side aperture for slit and diffraction work
- Lighting a slit or collimator for ray-tracing on an optical bench
- Showing shadows, umbra and penumbra with a small, intense source
- Class demonstrations that need a brighter source than a ray-box lamp
