Initial operation and usage
• Screw a bulb into the E27 holder and insert the power cable in an appropriate
socket.
• Ensure sufficient ventilation in order to prevent abnormal heating of smaller rooms
by operating the lamp.
• Via the switch you can switch the lamp on and off.
• When installing with a clamp (available separately) pay attention to a secure foo-
ting. The lamp may not be affixed to pipes!
Please note that animals need a temperature gradient and places of refuge in the
terrarium. You should also ensure that the animals have to be able to retreat from
the bulbs sphere and that there are cooler hiding places available. Please follow the
instruction of the lamp-producers if you use bulbs with UV radiation.
Operation with Lucky Reptile Bright Sun UV
• For operating the Bright Sun UV a special ballast is required. We recommend the use
of the Lucky Reptile Bright Control and Bright Control PRO devices
• Put the connector on the lampholder into the coupling of the ballast
• Screw the Bright Sun UV lamp into the lampholder and make sure that the socket
has good contact to the lampholder
• Plug the ballast into the wall socket
• Make sure that the cable between lampholder and ballast does not exceed 3m
in length.
Security advice
• The lamp may not be hung on the power cable. For HTSP-3 hanging is allowed with
corresponding mounting.
• The holder, the power cable, the switch and the socket have to be checked regularly
for damages. In case of damage the lamp has to be put out of operation immedia-
tely or rather may not be put into operation. The same action should be taken if the
lamp came into contact with fluids. Checking and if necessary repairing the device
may only be done by a qualified expert!
• Generally it should be verified if the device is applicable for the application at hand
before putting it into operation! In case of doubt consultation of experts or the
manufacturer of the employed devices is required!
• The lamp may not be operated in rooms with high humidity.
• Previous to any bulb replacements you have to disconnect the power cable.
• It has to be ensured that no one can come into contact with the hot spots of the
lamp.
• The lamp may only be affixed on flame resistant fixing surfaces and may also not
be covered (e.g. a blanket). Danger of fire! Flame resistant surfaces have to show
an ignition point of at least 200°C and may not warp or soften plastically at this
temperature. For example they may consist of wood or materials on wood basis
with a thickness of more than 2 mm.
• Only the power cable provided by the manufacturer may be used for connection.
Moreover in case of replacement of a damaged power cable only a special power
cable or a power cable exclusively obtainable through the manufacturer or his ser-
vice representatives may be used. An Inspection by an expert is required before
putting the device into operation after inserting / replacing the power cable.
• The lamp must no be used with UV bulbs when installed in a room with human
access. Do not look into a UV lamp.
