C
AUTION
:
Xenon compact arc lamps are highly pressurized. When ignited, the normal operating temperature
of the bulb increases the pressure to a level at which the bulb may explode if not handled in strict accordance
to the manufacturer’s instructions. The bulb is stable at room temperature, but may still explode if dropped or
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!
