Electromagnetic Interference (EMI)
Electroluminescent lamps have been shown to radiate negligible interference through UHF when operated by
quasi–sinusoidal waveforms.

DC–AC Inverter
Optimum performance and life can be achieved by using the inverter P/N 46013–01. The inverter extends; the
useful life of the lamp by compensating for the aging characteristics of the lamp. The inverter operates in a
constant power mode which provides for long lifetime at a relative constant light output. Because of the quasi–
sinusoidal output, RFI is minimal and usually no shielding is required.

INSTALLATION NOTE
To protect the front polarizer from accidental damage it is highly recommended that the LCD be mounted
behind a clear glass or polycarbonate window material. It is also recommended that an air gap of at least .030"
to .050" minimum be provided between the window material and the surface of the LCD to prevent the transfer
of static charges to the front surface of the LCD. Supertwist LCD’s may activate un–driven elements in
response to a surface static charge on the front polarizer. It may take several minutes for such a surface static
charge to dissipate.
