Bulb goes out during operation.
1.
Xenon power supply overheated; thermal switch open. Check power supply blower(s), air inlets and
outlets unobstructed. See power supply manual.
2.
Xenon bulb depressurizing. Check for envelope discoloration; replace if defective.
3.
Lamphouse blower not moving adequate air. Clean; lubricate seal blower.
4.
Lamphouse blower failed or obstructed. Clean dust and dirt from blower inlet grille. Check for 220
V.AC at 7 & 8; replace blower if defective.
5.
Lamphouse air vane switches faulty. Check for vane actuation; adjust or replace as required.
6.
Lamphouse exhaust obstructed. Clear obstruction; clean outlet grille.
7.
Exhaust air flow switch reacting to backdraft. Adjust actuator to compensate for backdraft.
8.
Fluctuating AC source voltage actuating brownout or spike protection circuits in xenon power supply.
See power supply manual.
Power supply does not energize when actuated.
1.
Door interlock switch, B1 blower, F1 blower fuse, S4 air vane switch, S2 power switch, S3 MODE

1.
Faulty or aged bulb. Check for cracked or sagging electrodes; replace if defective.
2.
Excessive ripple in DC output. See power supply manual.
3.
Arc stabilization magnet reversed. NORTH pole should point toward opertors side. Check with
compass if required.
Reduced light output.
1.
Normal bulb aging. Increase output current. DO NOT EXCEED MAXIMUM CURRENT LEVEL
SPECIFIED BY BULB MANUFACTURER.
2.
Soiled reflector. Clean using commercial glass cleaner; USE NO ABRASIVES.
3.
Soiled heat filter, projection lens, or large lens. Clean as required.
Extremely long duration between ignition pulses.
1.
Low DC no load voltage from the xenon power supply. Check no load voltage; see power supply
manual.
2.
Defective spark gap. A Ping sound is normal; excessive Hissing is abnormal. Replace if defective.
