Dymax ECE Series UV Flood-Lamp Systems User Guide
High-Temperature Surfaces
Surfaces exposed to high-intensity curing lights will rise in temperature. The intensity, distance, exposure
time, cooling fans, and the type/color of the surface can all affect the actual surface temperature. In some
cases, exposed surfaces can reach temperatures capable of producing a burn or causing damage to a
substrate. In these cases, care must be taken to ensure either a more moderate surface temperature or
appropriate protection/training for operators.
Bright, Visible Light
The bright, visible light emitted by some UV light-curing systems can be objectionable to some workers
and can cause eyestrain. Tinted eye protection and/or opaque/tinted shielding can be utilized to address
this concern.
