1. Description of the Device:
Polymerization of any commercial material can be carried out with the universal light polymeriza-
tion device Speed Labolight. Overheating in case of long term operation is prevented by a cooling
device on the back of Speed Labolight. The polymerization temperature of 40 °C will not be ex-
ceeded. Eight lamps, arranged around the turntables, as well as a halogen lamp transport the
polymerization light to every spot of the object. These lamps belong to the standard equipment
and make emission of ultraviolet rays and white light possible, thus covering the range of all photo
active materials between 320 – 550 nm. The lamps have to be replaced after 1,000 working hours.
A meter indicates the total working time. The control unit on the front desk controls the polym-
erization time from 1 second to 99 minutes. A continuous acoustic signal (30 seconds) indicates
the end of the polymerization process.
2. Installation and Start:
Speed Labolight has to be set up on a plain surface in such a way that the cooling grid on the back
does not obstruct the device. The distance between Speed Labolight and walls or other equip-
ments should be min. 15 cm in order to guarantee a sufficient ventilation. Remove the cover be-
tween the halogen lamp and the disc. The lamps T 1 (white light) and T8 S (black light) are plugged
alternately T1 - T8 - T1 - T8, etc. (s. picture 1). Use the halogen lamp according to picture 2. Put the
refractory disc in the special ring onto the turntable. First, connect the safety plug of the feed line
to the device, then plug it in. Adjust the main switch to ”1”.
(1) Main switch
(2) Button START: by pushing it when the device is ON, the polymerization process starts. By pushing
it during the process the cycle starts to a halt.
(3) Button MENU: by pushing it, you can change the process parameters, that is: the time (in minutes)
of the polymerization process, the time of the final cooling, the possibility to perform a polymeri-
zation process either with or without the HALOGEN LAMP.
(4) These buttons are used to modify the values during the polymerization process setting.
(5) Display LCD
3.a Putting into Operation:
• Adjust main switch to position 1 (on).
• Open the device by lifting the door.
• Place the object to be polymerized onto the turntable. If necessary, use special holder. Make sure
that the object is set up vertically near the lamps.
