•
Explosion of the xenon lamp could cause serious injury.
High-pressure gas at about 1 MPa is filled in the lamp at room
temperature.
•
Be careful not to apply force to the lamp bulb (glass part) when replacing
the lamp.
•
Wear protective goggles and gloves when handling the lamp
•
When tightening the lamp clamp nut, hold the metal parts on the anode
and cathode sides with fingers. Never hold the lamp bulb when securing
it. Take care not to apply excessive force or shock to the lamp bulb.
If the lamp bulb is contaminated with dust or fingerprints, wipe it using
the furnished cleaning paper or gauze/absorbent cotton cloth moistened
with high-quality alcohol. In this cleaning, be careful not to apply strong
impact or shock to the lamp.
•
Be sure to mount the lamp in the specified direction. If the mounting
direction (polarity) is wrong, the cathode will be consumed significantly
to disable turn-on of the lamp.
•
Mount the lamp so that the '+' (anode) mark on it will be positioned at the
support metal of the lamp holder.
•
If a lamp with its cathode consumed excessively is used continuously,
the pressure inside the lamp bulb may become too high, causing
explosion. To prevent this, replace the lamp with a new one immediately
if its cathode has been consumed significantly.
Gazing at Illuminated Xenon Lamp Could
Cause Eye Damage!
•
The xenon lamp radiates intense ultraviolet
light when it is on.
•
Do not look at the xenon lamp directly when it
is lit.
•
Wear tinted safety glasses to prevent possible
eye damage
