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 

 

A. 

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
