The ST-329BL is a permanent mount blacklight stroboscope
array utilizing super bright, CREE high powered LED lamps. The
ST-329BL’s LED array provides a bright, stable black light over
a wide measurement range with a lifetime far exceeding xenon
lit stroboscopes. The ST-329BL arrays are available in several
standard sizes from 9.25” (235 mm) to 65” (1650 mm) in length.
Custom sizes are available upon request. The arrays are easi-
ly mountable on production equipment. An optional mounting
adapter kit is available to aid in array installation. A separate con-
trol enclosure is connected with 6.5’ (2 m) cable to the array. Op-
eration is simple with the 8 button keypad and large, backlit LCD
display. Phase shift, flash duration, plus flash rate are all quickly
adjustable via the control. The unit can work off user programmed
flash frequency or from a remote sensor’s signal which will auto-
matically adjust to corresponding process fluctuations.
The ST-329BL is designed for speed and frequency measure-
ments in the printing, packaging, textile, automotive, cable, medi-
cal industries in various applications.
