UV Curing System
Introduction
The UV Curing System on the Océ Arizona printers generates hazardous levels of thermal,
electrical and UV energies. UV-curable ink need a high energy level of UV light to cure. The UV
curing system is made up of two mercury arc lamps attached to the carriage.
How to Handle UV Lamps:
UV lamps operate at high temperatures. Never touch a lamp in
operation. Let the lamps cool for a minimum of five minutes before attempting any maintenance.
Use extreme care in handling the UV lamp bulbs. The UV bulbs contain a small amount of metallic
mercury which is toxic when ingested, handled, or breathed. Therefore, if bulbs are broken, care
should be taken to clean up the spill immediately, and then disposed of according to local
regulations concerning Mercury disposal.
UV Lamp Hazards
: Superficial eye damage and burning of the skin can occur with even brief
exposure to UV light. Serious injuries can result from prolonged exposure, especially if
unshielded. Special restrictions and protective measures are essential when the printers are used.
Wear Industrial Protective Eyewear with lenses that block both UVA and UVB. Gloves and long-
sleeved work clothes are essential to reduce the skin's exposure to UV emissions.
Bare skin contact with the UV lamp bulbs must be avoided. When heated, compounds from the
skin can form permanent etching on the surface of the UV bulb. A contaminated bulb may fail
prematurely.
Ozone:
As a UV lamp warms up, it briefly passes through a section of the light spectrum which
excites oxygen molecules enough to create ozone. Once a UV lamp has completely warmed up,
only very minute amounts of ozone are present.
NOTE
A high concentration of ozone can cause irritation, headaches or nausea. Provide adequate
ventilation as indicated in the Site Preparation Guide.
CAUTION
Warning for Seated Individuals: UV emissions are highest at a height of 90 cm (35 inches) above
the floor. This can be an issue for individuals seated near the printer.Remove all chairs within 5
meters (16 feet) of the printer.
WARNING
One or more lamp(s) inside this product contain Mercury. Dispose these lamp(s) according to all
federal, state and local regulations.
Mercury containing lamp(s) must be removed and treated separately according Directive
2012/19/EU (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment). European Waste Catalogue (EWC)
number of the mercury containing fluorescent lamp: 20 01 12.
