The Tirex company, producer of the <strong>ELENEK</strong> illuminators, was<br />

founded in 1992 by specialists of the Physical and Technical<br />

Institute of Saint-Petersburg<br />

From the start the main activity of our company was the<br />

development and production of infrared illuminators.<br />

Since 1998 we produce the <strong>ELENEK</strong> infrared illuminators series.<br />

They found their way in a great variety of applications.<br />

The invisible illumination of public and private buildings<br />

The illumination of borders<br />

The illumination of railroad tracks<br />

As illumination on police surveillance vehicles<br />

The infrared light has a wavelength that can not be seen by<br />

the human eye. The Elenek illuminators have a wavelength of<br />

870 nm (nanometres). Visible light has a wavelength of 350<br />

to 750 nm.<br />

This infrared light is only visible by black/white cameras and<br />

by colour cctv cameras with IR cut filter.<br />

In general, all the characteristics of visible light are valid for<br />

infrared light. This includes the common effects as shadows<br />

and overexposure. This is also the reason why it is almost<br />

impossible to specify exact distances for infrared illuminators.<br />

How far does a bulb of 60 watts shine?<br />

The individual Leds are highly efficient and powerful. The<br />

power of the illuminators varies between 8 and 40 watts,<br />

depending of the type. This, in combination with the high<br />

quality of the illuminators, says a lot more than estimated<br />

distances.
