Inserting the HBO 103 W/2 mercury
vapor short-arc lamp
For safety reasons, the HBO 100 illuminator and
the HBO 103 W/2 mercury vapor short-arc lamp
are supplied in separate packages.
Therefore, inserting the HBO 103 W/2 lamp into
the lamp housing is the first step in starting up this
illuminator.
For a description of how to insert or replace the
HBO 103 W/2 lamp, read the instructions for use
supplied with it.
To change the transmission, use a
discrete FL attenuator (423616-0000-
000 or 423617-0000-000). The gray
filters mounted in the 2-position filter
wheels (428300-9901-000 or 428301-
9901-000) are not permanently stable.
Only the gray filter set (487935-9020-
000) can be used.
