16.2 Liquid Light Guides
Proper handling and installation of liquid light guides
1. Liquid light guides have a typical useful life of 4000 hours of operation when
handled properly and installed in a well maintained X-Cite 120. The formation of
bubbles is one of the most common reasons for a light guide to degrade
prematurely and result in a sudden reduction in illumination intensity. Bubbles
can form without warning, and if they occur within the first 1500 to 2000 hours of
use, is it typically due to overheating and/or mechanical stress to the light guide.
Below are some simple tips to avoid overheating and stressing the light guide.
2. Always fully insert the light guide in to the X-Cite unit (i.e.
up to the “A” line
printed on the grey ferrule); this ensures contact with a heat sink to conduct heat
away from the light guide.
