Super Bright LEDs for High-Speed

 Camera Applications

 

VIC offers Super Bright LED array technology to meet a wide range of user needs for high intensity illumination.   High-speed digital cameras require very high light levels for millisecond and microsecond shutter speeds. Our +40 years experience in high-speed imaging has influenced the designs of these new generation LEDs to meet these needs.  Our LEDs are successfully used in automotive crash and sled testing, military weapons testing, airborne flight testing, R & D laboratory testing, manufacturing trouble-shooting and other environments. 

 Benefits Include …..

 

*      High light output with low power consumption

*      Cool illumination with virtually no heat in the light beam

*      Small size in 9 different array configurations

*      Ruggedized arrays for +100g shock and vibration environments

*      Both continuous light and stroboscopic rates to 10,000 Hz and beyond

*      Modeling light for camera set-up

*      Long Life, more than 25,000 hours

*      Very low EMI and RFI

*      No UV radiation

*      Universal AC powered input controllers; 100 to 240 volts

*      Hi-g controllers powered by 28-volts D

*      RoHS and CE certified

 

These arrays accept Super Bright white LEDs for color cameras and red or green LEDs for mono-chrome cameras.  A selection of 3 interchangeable collimating lenses for each white and green LEDs provide 8°, 21° and 29° full beam angles to meet multiple applications.  Red LEDs are supplied with 10° beam angle lenses. 

 

The following is an example of Super-Bright white LED light intensity.

 

Two 3 x 4 white LED arrays with 8° lenses focused on an area of  6” x 10” (153mm x 254mm) at a distance of 18 to 24 inches.  The result of this example is a cool intensity level measured at +40,000 foot-candles or 430,400 lux using a lab photometer.   By comparison, sun light measured at 12:00 noon in the summer time with a clear blue sky is approximately 10,000 foot candles.

Dual Channel LED Arrays with

 Ruggedized Controller

Model 201500 System with
Dual Model 201530 LED arrays

The 201500 is a dual channel self-contained Hi-g LED controller.  It includes two 12-volt batteries that power a pair of 4 x 6 white or red LED's.  A pair of 25-foot (7.65m) power cables connects the controller to the LED arrays.

This controller is designed for remote control operation at distances of 500 feet or more.  It accepts a TTL active low remote voltage or contact closure to activate both 4 x 6 LED arrays.  A buffered output is also provided to trigger additional controllers.  This controller is highly ruggedized and ideal for Hi-g sled, field and explosive environments.  The remote input is also compatible with wireless interface.

The controller’s timer circuit has four switch positions with 3 On-Time durations: 15, 30 and 45 seconds.  Position 1 allows instant ON-OFF control.   The time durations automatically switch off the LED's when the selected duration times-out.  Note that the LED's remain on, even if the remote control cable is severed or damaged.  These durations are also factory programmable for other time intervals.
