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.
