Xenon compact arc lamps are highly pressurized. When ignited, the normal operating temperature

otherwise mishandled. Whenever the lamp house, containing a xenon lamp, has to be dismantled or whenever
the protective container or cloth has to be removed from the xenon lamp, authorized protective clothing MUST
be worn!
