UV SYSTEMS, Inc. liable or responsible for any personal injuries occurring as a result of the
use, installation and/or servicing of the light.
WARNING
When the short wave or medium wave
Dual TripleBright II
is operating, huge amounts of
ultraviolet (253.7 nm, UV-C for SW; and 312 nm, UV-B for MW) energy are emitted which
may produce sunburn on the skin and/or conjunctivitis to the eyes upon exposure to direct or
reflected radiation. Never look into a lighted SW or MW
Dual TripleBright II
light because
it can quickly sunburn your eyes and skin. Always position the
Dual TripleBright II
so that
the ultraviolet light shines away from you and others. The
Dual TripleBright II
may emit
much more ultraviolet than you are used to. It is suggested that protective goggles (such as
UV SYSTEMS, GB, or equivalent) or full face shields be used to block ultraviolet radiation
from reaching your eyes, and that your skin be protected from direct exposure to the light's
ultraviolet rays.
Long wave UV is not a problem
.
Dual TripleBright II Compared to the single lamp TripleBright II
The SW Dual TripleBright II with two SW lamps is about 13.6% more powerful than a
TripleBright II with only one SW lamp.
Before using the Dual TripleBright II
REMOVE THE
RED
TAPE FROM BOTH ENDS OF EACH LAMP
The
red
tape is used to hold the lamps in their sockets only during shipping

OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE Dual TripleBright II
You are now the owner of the newest ultraviolet light specifically designed for fluorescence
displays. For short wave it uses one or two custom made quartz lamps that are very resistant
to bulb solarization. For medium wave it uses one or two custom made lamps with a special
erythemal (also called UV-C, or soft) glass and a medium wave phosphor that peaks at
approximately 312 nm. For long wave it uses one or two of the two custom made lamps with
a standard soda-lime glass. For the long wave lamps one lamp has a long wave phosphor that
peaks at approximately 352 nm (LW350) and the other lamp has a phosphor that peaks at
approximately 368 nm (LW370). These High Output (HO) Rapid Start hot cathode lamps are
the first new sources of ultraviolet for lights that are specifically designed for fluorescence
displays. The
Dual TripleBright II
(US Patents 6,479,947 and 6,838,837) has a special
circuit that supplies the cathode heat or filament power (yellow power cord). With this special
circuit each of the
Dual TripleBright II
lamps can be turned “on” and “off” millions of times
without affecting the life of the lamp. The yellow power cord supplies the filament power to
both lamps. The blue cord supplies the high voltage necessary for the lamp (a) to light; with
the rocker switch (a) on the
Dual TripleBright II
in series with the blue cord. The black cord
supplies the high voltage necessary for the lamp (b) to light; with rocker switch (b) in series
with the black cord. That means that the yellow cord
must be
plugged in and powered up at
least 10 seconds before either the blue or black cords to the
Dual TripleBright II
are turned
“on”. The
Dual TripleBright II
has instant start operation, which means that no starters or
extra switches are needed to turn the lamp "on." This means that the blue and black cords can
