warming period before the Lamp Head returns to full intensity.
Once the input power is switched off, the Lamp Head will
require a minimum of five minutes of cooling time before
restarting.
7.
The Headrest can be used as a Curing Chamber for small
parts. To cure parts in the Headrest, pull the drawer open
using the black pull knob and load components onto the center
of the tray (Figure 9). Close the drawer and set the Lamp
Power Select Switch to the full power position and wait the
appropriate amount of time for curing to complete.
WARNING:
While the drawer is in the fully open position, the
back side of the drawer will block most of the UV light and
prevent it from scattering into the work area. However, UV
glasses and skin protection should still be worn during curing
to ensure safe operation.
8.
When curing is complete, set the Lamp Power Select Switch to
the standby position to minimize temperature rise of the Lamp
Head and Headrest. Open the drawer and remove the cured
parts.
9.
To perform handheld curing (Figure 15), lift the Lamp Head
from the Headrest using the Handle. Switch the Lamp Head to
full-power mode and hold the Lamp Head 2-6 inches from the
target substrate.
NOTE:
The height of the Lamp can be adjusted up or down to
control the intensity of light reaching the substrate being cured.
Refer to the adhesive manufacturer’s data sheet for
appropriate exposure time and intensity levels. The optimum
height and exposure time required to provide proper curing
may need to be adjusted experimentally.
10.
When curing is complete, place the Lamp Head back on the
Headrest and set the Power Mode Switch back to the standby
position.
Shut Down
To shut down the light-curing system, place the Lamp Head back on
the Headrest, and shut off the Input Power Switch. Allow the Lamp
Head and surrounding components time to cool before placing the
Lamp Head close to temperature-sensitive materials or before
repackaging the system for transportation.
