Advanced Illumination recently introduced the RL322 Series Ultra Seal Ring Light. Designed for versatility, the RL322 features an embedded strobe control and is built with industrial grade LEDs that can produce up to 35 klx in continuous mode and more than 170 klx in strobe. It is available in 50 and 100mm sizes and offers a variety of lens options.
The RL322 features 14 wavelength options, including:
- Ultraviolet (365-395 nm)
- White (5500K)
- Visible color (royal blue, blue, green, red, deep red)
- infrared (730-940 nm)
It also has a variety of window and light conditioning options, including clear, diffused, homogenized, and polarized.
One unique factor is the housing. Designed without exposed fasteners, the housing units are crevice free, which prevents detritus from sticking to the light, and ultimately preventing bacterial build-up. The housings, available in stainless steel or anodized aluminum, are rated IP69K, the International Electrotechnical Commission’s highest ingress protection rating; they are considered to be essentially dust and waterproof.
The RL322 is designed for machine vision applications performed in challenging environments—especially situations in which the lights are exposed to splashing liquids from water to abrasive cleaning solutions—across industrial sectors, including food and beverage inspection, pharmaceutical/medical, and hygienic industrial environments.
