IF THE LAMP FAILS TO OPERATE

1.  Make sure that the unit is plugged into a grounded outlet with the  

appro priate  voltage.

2.  Check to see that both the LAMP and the MAIN switches are pushed to 

the ON position.

3. 

 

Check to see that the bulb is securely inserted between the 

 

spring-loaded metal contacts.

4.  If the lamp has recently been shut off, make sure that the bulb has 

cooled sufficiently before attempting to restart it. Remember that 

 

restarting of the lamp will 

not 

occur immediately. The restarting delay 

can range up to five minutes or longer.

OPERATOR SERVICING

The following servicing instructions are intended for limited main tenance 

of the UV-400 SuperFlood Series lamps. Do not perform any servicing 

other than that contained in these instructions. Return the lamp to the  

factory for maintenance not covered in this section.

WARNING

To avoid the risk of electrical shock, 

always

 unplug the lamp from its 

power source 

before

 cleaning or servicing.

HOUSING AND FILTER MAINTENANCE

The aluminum lamp housing is designed for protection of the 

 

internal parts. Using a soft cloth, immediately clean spills from the housing 

with water and a mild detergent and wipe dry. 

Do not allow any  

liquids to touch the filter when it is hot or to penetrate into the unit’s 

electrical components.

 Periodically clean the filter with a glass cleaner 

and a soft cloth.

FILTER REPLACEMENT

NOTE: Allow the unit to cool before changing the filter.

Since the filter is tempered glass, avoid exposing it to any sudden or  

drastic change in temperature. For example, immersing a hot lamp in a 

cool liquid can cause the filter to shatter.

1. Disconnect the lamp from the power outlet.

2.  Remove the unit from its mounting position. Place it filter-side up on a 

workbench with the screwlocks turned toward you.

3.  

With a flathead screwdriver, turn the right and left screwlocks 

 

counterclockwise 

until the filter assembly is free to swing open on  

the hinge.

4.  

With the filter assembly and reflector exposed, detach the filter 

 

assembly by removing the eight Phillips screws that secure the twin  

filter-retaining plates.

5. With a sharp knife or blade, cut the silicone on the twin filters.
