II VL5 ™ WASH LUMINAIRE SERVICE MANUAL
WARNING: INSTRUCTIONS FOR PROTECTION AGAINST INJURY TO PERSONS
1) Exterior surfaces of the luminaire will be hot during operation. Use appropriate safety equipment (gloves, eye
protection, etc.) when handling and adjusting hot equipment and components. Service and maintenance should
be performed only by qualified personnel as determined by the high pressure lighting fixture manufacturer.
2) Arc lamps generate intense heat. Disconnect power and allow lamp to cool for 15 minutes before relamping.
3) Arc lamps emit ultraviolet radiation which can cause serious skin burn and eye inflammation. Additionally, arc
lamps operate under high pressure at very high temperatures. Should the lamp break, there can exist a danger of
personal injury and/or fire from broken lamp particles being discharged.
4) The lamp shall be changed if it has become damaged or thermally deformed.
5) Wear eye protection when relamping.
6) If lamp is touched with bare hands, clean lamp with denatured alcohol and wipe with lint-free cloth before
installing or powering up the luminaire.
7) Serious injury may result from the generation of ozone by this lamp system. A proper means of venting must be
provided.
