Sodium Light Source

Replacing the Sodium Lamp:

Caution—High Voltage:  Do not open the light
source with the unit plugged in.

1.

Unplug the light source, and allow several minutes for
the sodium lamp to cool.

2.

Remove the rear panel and replace the lamp as shown in
the Initial Setup instructions above.

3.

Replace the rear panel.

Caution—Disposing of the Sodium Lamp:  The
sodium lamp contains a small quantity of metallic
sodium which produces heat when dampened.  To
dispose of a used lamp, wrap the lamp in several
rolls of dry paper, then place it in a dry container.
Then, in a dry atmosphere, break the lamp carefully
into smaller pieces.  Finally, stand back and fill the
container with water.  Within a few minutes the
metallic sodium will be deactivated.  Dispose of the
lamp pieces as you would any broken glass.

Note:  If additional maintenance is required, it
should be performed only by qualified personnel
(see the schematic on the following page. )
