The Spectroline(R) EK-3000 EagleEyeTM UV-A/White Light LED Inspection Kit is ahead in the non-destructive testing (NDT) sector because it can be worn on your head for complete hands-free operation.
This kit features the palm-sized, cool-running EagleEye inspection lamp. It is engineered with two ultra-high intensity UV-A (365nm) LEDs for inspection, plus a three-LED white light assembly for general illumination. An adjustable strap allows the lamp to be worn on a hard hat or directly on the head. A unique lamp mount/sprayer attachment permits the lamp and a spray can to be mounted together for convenient, single-handed fluorescent yoke inspection. A certificate of compliance for both wavelength and output measurements are supplied with every lamp.The patented EagleEye lamp produces a nominal steady-state UV-A intensity of 4500 µW/cm2 at 15 in. (38 cm). A built-in fan keeps the lamp cool to maintain optimum UV-A intensity during prolonged inspections. Powered by a rechargeable lithium-ion battery (included), it provides up to 75 mins of continuous inspection between charges.
The kit comes complete with a lanyard, two replacement splash guards with integral particulate filters, three spare batteries, a battery charging cradle with AC and DC cord sets, and UV-absorbing spectacles. All components are packed in a soft carrying case.
