Looks like a trunion combrumpter with the optional hydro-coptic marzle vane fitted to reduce sinusoidal deplaneration.

I think its a light source from a spectrophotometer. I think the gears turn a monochromator. The one side is UV-VIS and the other is IR.
Best Guess, Its from a Meditech medical laser. Same over-built telescoping tubes they use in all their products.
The one is a custom short arc lamp of some form. The other is a tungsten source. My guess is aiming beam and a beam source for exciting dyes.
I've never seen that in their products, but it has to be the same design engineer.

I should have rented the space under my name for advertising.

What is the mercury lamp for?
Thanks guys. Still not sure what I can use it for. I'm sure it'll come in handy for something. I think you are right silentgloves, who else says Gday?
kecked is right, it is a light source for a UV/VIS spectrometer or spectrophotometer. The mercury arc lamps supplies the UV spectrum as well as a couple lines that can be used to calibrate. The tungsten lamp supplies the visible to near-ir wavelengths.
If that really is a grating and not just a mirror to select the source it is probably the most valuable part of it. Spectrometer gratings are spendy, even used.
I have a few of those lamps. Might try to use one as a line source for my scanning monochrometer.
