This fixture is fitted with a discharge lamp which
is highly susceptible to damage if improperly
handled. Never touch the lamp with your bare fin-
gers as the oil from your hands will shorten lamp
life. Also, never move the fixture until the lamps
have had ample time to cool. Remember, lamps
are not covered under warranty conditions.
This unit emits intense UV radiation which is harmful to the eyes and
skin. The intense luminance of the lamp can cause severe damage
to the retina. Never operate this unit without it’s covers, these covers
have been specially designed to shield against UV radiation.
Epileptic Warning:
Those suffering from epilepsy should avoid looking
directly into the lamp at all times.
Avoid switching the fixture on and off repeatedly in short intervals as
this will reduce lamp life and intensity.
To achieve the intensity associated with discharge lamps, these lamps
use gas sealed in a high pressure environment to emit a brilliant output.
Due to the high pressure involved with the construction of the lamp,
the lamp may explode during prolonged extensive use. This risk is
increased with age, added care is encouraged when dealing with older
lamps. Extreme caution should be used when operating this or any
fixture fitted with a gas discharge lamp. Never open this unit while in
use.
