8.3.3 Changing the deuterium lamp
Risk of electric shock!
Before changing the deuterium lamp, make sure to switch the device off with the
power switch.
Caution: Risk of burns!
Allow the deuterium lamp to cool down to avoid the risk of burns!
Emitted UV radiation!
Never look directly or indirectly, e.g. via a mirror, into the radiation emitted by the lamp
to avoid the risk of getting conjunctivitis!
Dirt on beam exit window!
Do not touch the glass bulb of the new deuterium lamp. Particularly avoid
contamination on the quartz glass beam exit window! If you touched the glass bulb
with your fingers, wipe the fingerprints off with a clean, lintfree cloth and pure alcohol.
The performance of the lamp will deteriorate by contamination.
After you have removed the flap of the lamp compartment, the lamps are visible in their
protective covers (Fig. 8-2 and Fig. 8-3).
1. Remove the top part of the protective cover of the deuterium lamp by pulling it
upward.
