Inspection Lamp Goes Where NDT Inspectors Need to Go

The powerful, lightweight OPTIMAX 365 cordless UV-A LED inspection lamp from Spectroline is ideal for magnetic particle inspection or fluorescent penetrant inspection.

Posted: September 1, 2016

The Spectroline OPTIMAX 365 utilizes ultra-hi-flux LEDs (lifetime is 100,000 hours) to produce a nominal steady-state UV-A intensity of 18,000 µW/cm² at a distance of 15” (38 cm.). Powered by a rechargeable NiMH battery, the flashlight provides 90 minutes of continuous use between charges.
