Hazards
!
Xenon-arc lamps are an explosion
hazard. Wear explosion-proof face-
shield and protective clothing when
opening the lamp housing and han-
dling the lamp.
!
Disconnect the lamp power supply from the AC power line (mains) while handling
lamp leads. Lethal high voltages may exist.
!
The lamp remains extremely hot for approximately one-half hour after it has been
turned off. Do not touch the lamp or the metal unit until the lamp has cooled.
!
Never look directly at the xenon arc or its reflection. Intense radiation can perma-
nently damage eyes.
!
Do not touch the focusing lens, back-scatter mirror, or the surface of the lamp. Fin-
gerprints will be burned onto these surfaces when the lamp is ignited.
