7.0 Flashlamp Replacement
For optimal performance, the flashlamp should be replaced approximately
every 50 million shots. See
for information on viewing the shot counter.
Note:
Gradual lamp degradation is normal. Lamp degradation requires
increases in input energy levels to maintain the original output level.
Lamp Removal
CAUTION:
Failure to follow these procedures may flood the Laser Head
with coolant, may result in personal injury, and will void the warranty.
CAUTION:
Keep the Laser Head in a horizontal orientation throughout
the lamp change process!
CAUTION:
Handle the flashlamp only with talc-free, rubber finger cots
or gloves.
1. Ensure that the ICE450 Key Switch is OFF.
2. Disconnect the electrical cables and coolant lines.
3. Ensure that the coolant is completely removed from the Laser Head. See
Draining the ICE450 on page 68
4. Place the Laser Head flatly on its mounting holes.
5. Remove the lamp access cover from the Laser Head by pushing and
rotating counterclockwise. Removal of the cover reveals the black plastic
lamp end.
6. Keep the Laser Head flat on its mounting feet and firmly pull the black
plastic lamp end outward.
Note:
The lamp can be difficult to break loose from the O-rings that seal the
coolant. Pull firmly to release the lamp.
CAUTION:
IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO PULL STRAIGHT AND EVENLY
TO AVOID BREAKING THE LAMP! Keep the Laser Head in a horizontal
orientation with the lamp removed. If tilted, coolant left in the pump
cavity will drain into the laser cavity, permanently damaging laser
components.
