Adjusting burner in fluorescent
lamp
Since the Axiostar
plus
epi-fluorescence
illuminator has an adjustment guide (filter stop
carrier 2, 2-24/
5
), the HBO 50 can remain on
the illuminator while adjusting the burner.
•
Turn on completely connected fluorescent
lamp via the power supply unit. The burner
will ignite automatically.
If the image of the light arc and the mirror
image are superimposed, the burner will have a
greater thermal load. This will reduce burner
life.
•
Move filter stop carrier 2 (2-24/
5
) to the
adjust
position. The light arc of the burner
(lighter) and its mirror image (somewhat
darker) can be seen the filter stop carrier 2
window (2-24/
6
).
•
Use the knob (2-24/
4
) to focus the collector
so both light arcs are sharply focused.
•
Use adjustment screw (2-24/
1
) to adjust
burner in an axial direction to the mirror so
that both light arcs appear the same size in
the adjustment guide window (see Fig.
2-24/
6
).
•
Use the adjustment screws for height
(2-24/
2
) and side adjustment (2-24/
3
) to
position the light arc and mirror image
centered and parallel to each other in the
adjustment circle (2-24/
6
). The light arc and
mirror image should not be superimposed.
•
When you are finished making the
adjustments, use the knob to refocus again
and move the filter stop carrier 2 (2-24/
5
) to
the
open
or
closed
position.
