W
ARNING
:
DO NOT PERMIT UNAUTHORIZED PERSONNEL TO PERFORM OR ATTEMPT ANY PHASE OF
XENON LAMP HANDLING OR SERVICE. ONLY TRAINED AND QUALIFIED TECHNICAL SERVICE PERSONNEL
ARE ALLOWED TO HANDLE THE XENON LAMP.
W
ARNING
:
This procedure may only be performed by quali fi ed technical service personnel.
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!
W
ARNING
:
Always wear face protection (full face shield) when handling xenon lamps.
W
ARNING
:
Always wear protective clothing (welder’s jacket) when handling xenon lamps.
W
ARNING
:
Always wear clean leather gloves with wrist protectors when handling xenon lamps.
This procedure assumes that the UV blocker assembly and the side cover are already removed from the Lamp
House due to the removal of the xenon lamp.
Necessary tools
• Torque Allen key.
• 17mm open-end wrench.
• Torque wrench with a 17mm hexagon socket.
• Torque wrench with a 5mm Allen socket.
• Welder’s jacket (not included in the safety kit that Barco offers).
• Full face shield with neck protection.
• Leather gloves with wrist protection.
How to install the xenon lamp into the Lamp House?
1. Have you considered required maintenance actions?
If yes, proceed with this procedure.
If no, see chapter "Lamp change maintenance actions", page 128.
2. Install the lamp cathode adapter onto the cathode of the xenon lamp. Note that the xenon lamp has a threaded cathode pin
(reference 11 image 13-25). Tighten the adaptor by hand on the cathode pin. Make sure that there is full contact between the
adapter
fl at surface and the lamp base (no air gap may be visible). Fasten the screw (reference 10image 13-25) of the cathode
adapter with a torque of 2.5Nm (1.84 lbf*ft). Use a torque wrench with a 5mm Allen socket.
Caution: Ensure that the adaptor is clean. Periodically clean the adapter. Remove oxide from adaptor with standard household
metal polish (E.g. Brasso).
Warning: Install the cathode adapter prior to removing the protective container or protective cloth from the xenon lamp.
