OPERATION:
The lamp has a three-way operating switch (partial power/full power/OFF).
Note! In the IL-80 ATEX LED EM safety lamp model, the order is: full power/partial power/OFF.
The operating time depends on the lighting power selected. When approximately 1–2 hours of operating
time is remaining (depending on the temperature and the condition of the battery), the lamp starts to blink
approximately every 15 seconds. When the battery is running low, the control electronics switch off the lamp
automatically well in time before there is any danger of deep discharge. In special circumstances, the lamp can
be switched back on after the battery is empty to get light for a short while. This should be avoided, however,
as it shortens the life of the battery.
If the lamp is only used briefly between recharge cycles, it is recommended that the battery be let run empty
by keeping the lamp on after every ten uses, for example.
Safety light operation (EM):
The IL-80 ATEX LED EM also has a safety lamp function: When kept in the charger stand, the lamp is continu-
ously in standby mode and the LED light glows dimly. The lamp switches to full power when mains voltage is
not available.
MAINTENANCE:
The user may replace components which areavailable as spare parts. Repairing, amending and adjusting the
electronics card is absolutely forbidden!
The operating time of the lamp shortens as the battery ages. If the overall operating time is so short after
recharging that it disrupts the use of the lamp, the battery must be replaced. Only spare batteries supplied by
the manufacturer may be used for the lamp.
The lamp must be disassembled at least partially for all maintenance operations. To disassemble the lamp,
follow these instructions:
1: Turn the closing ring open and remove the glass lens. Turn the closing ring of the LED lamp until it opens
and remove the bulb using a clean cloth. Screw the support sleeve open using a wide straight screwdriver and
remove the reflector.
2: The LED bulb and the reflector must be handled with care as impurities reduce the luminosity. If the reflector
or the LED bulb become dirty, they must be cleaned using a solvent.
3: Remove the exterior screws of the charging contacts and detach the charging contacts to remove the carrier
unit from the enclosure. If the carrier unit is tight, knock the lamp lightly against the edge of the table.
Pull the carrier unit halfway out of the enclosure and remove the operating switch connector (yellow wires). Pull
the carrier unit completely out of the enclosure.
4: Removal of the switch: Start by opening the four screws of the cover plate. Remove the coupler cover plate
and rubber cover. Then remove the coupler from the inside of the enclosure. NOTE! Also check that the rubber
cover is unbroken.
Note during assembly: Assemble the lamp in reverse order.
1: The closing ring of the LED lamp should be tightened well.
2: Tighten the closing ring well so that the arrow in the enclo-
sure points to the mark in the closing ring.
(if necessary, you can lubricate the threads with mineral oil,
for example). See
