DC Arclamps are operated in a continuous wave (CW) mode and discharge a constant current in the 10-40 Amp range between 100-250 Volts. The continuous light radiated induces constant gain in the Nd:YAG rod, generating a continuous laser beam. Krypton gas is almost always selected for CW applications because it is more efficient than Xenon at these power levels; in fact, these lamps are universally known as Krypton arclamps. For increased efficiency, they are filled to very high pressures, typically 5-10 atmospheres. Violent explosions can result from mishandling, so safety glasses should be worn during handling and installation.
