Intensity Control Feature
The components used in all light-curing systems degrade with use. Therefore, the maximum intensity
decreases as exposure hours accumulate. Setting process intensity requirements lower than the maximum
enables the
BlueWave LED Flood
’s
intensity control feature to allow for compensation of gradual decreases in
light intensity.
The unit's intensity can be adjusted using the intensity adjustment on the front control panel as a percentage
of full scale intensity.
