LITE® luminaires use a lamp that produces UV radiation. DO NOT look directly at
lamp.

shall be changed if they have become visibly damaged to such an extent that their effectiveness is
impaired. For example, by cracks or deep scratches.

replacing.

Additionally, arc lamps operate under high pressure at very high temperatures. Should the lamp

discharged.
4. Wear eye protection when relamping.
5. Appropriate safety equipment (gloves, eye protection) should be used when handling damaged
