Description
1. Handle
The PortaRay handle can be used to carry the curing system
when the lamp head is latched to bottom accessory
compartment, or to hold the lamp head during manual curing
operations.
2. Mounting Holes
These threaded holes can be used for fastening the lamp head
to a stand, fixture, machine or conveyor (refer to section 2.2).
3. Lamp Power Select Switch
The Lamp Power rocker switch se
lects either the “full” or
“standby” lamp power setting. When curing or warming-up the
lamp, the switch should be set to full power. Between curing
operations, the switch can be set to the low power standby
setting which reduces the amount of heat and stray UV light
radiated by the unit. The switch should always be set to
“standby” when the lamp is idling on the headrest. When
switching back to full power, the lamp will be ready for curing
again after a brief 5 to 10 second re-warming period.

to the PortaRay system. Co-located with the switch is the IEC

bottom accessories compartment during transport & storage.
