Loctite CL15 UV, Operation Manual

Page: 5 / 22

2. Description, (continued)
UV lamps undergo a gradual reduction in UV output over time and it is recommended that
the lamp output be monitored on a regular basis. Frequently turning the main power on and
off will increase the rate that the lamp degrades, therefore, it is recommended that the unit be
left on during short work breaks such as lunch and other idle periods.
The digital display is the user interface to the system. It is used to set and view the shutter
ON/OFF time, number of cycles, lamp hours, and system hours. During a cure cycle the time
and duration will
be shown counting down for user viewing.
The timed exposure cycle starts by momentarily engaging the footswitch or when an
externally operated device such as a PLC makes a relay closure across pins 1 and 9 of the
nine pin foot switch connection, XS-1, on the rear panel. In the manual operating mode, the
shutter remains open for as long as the footswitch or alternate external device maintains
contact between pins 1 and 9.
Notice: The hour meter should only be reset when a new lamp is installed.
