For maximum safety and optimum performance with the
Halogen Photo Optic lamp, the following precautions must be taken:
CAUTION:
- This bulb MUST be used in a fixture that has a suitable protective shield and/or
screening technique to protect people and surroundings against the risk of personal injury
and/or property damage from bulb shattering and UV (ultraviolet) exposure, since:
- THIS BULB OPERATES AT HIGH INTERNAL PRESSURE AND AT HIGH SURFACE TEMPERATURE AND MAY
UNEXPECTEDLY SHATTER RESULTING IN HOT, FLYING FRAGMENTS OF GLASS OR METAL.
- This bulb generates UV radiation that may cause skin and eye irritation with prolonged
exposure.
- To avoid risk of serious eye injury from the intense light, do not stare at operating bulb.
- To avoid the possibility of fire, do not operate bulb close to materials that are
combustible or affected by heat or drying.
- To avoid electric shock, turn off power before attempting replacement
- To avoid skin burns, wait for bulb to cool before handling.
- For safe and proper bulb operation, operate bulb at rated voltage and wattage. Operation
above rated voltage increases UV output and internal pressure, thus increasing the risk of
rupture. Use only in equipment/fixture specifying this bulb type,
- Do not move, bump or bounce equipment/fixture during operation because mechanical shock can
cause shattering and failure of the bulb.
- Replace all equipment/fixture covers and shields to prevent personal injury or property
damage.
INSTALLATION
- Do not use if bulb is scratched or damaged in any way.
- To avoid damaging the glass, do not touch inner bulb or inside of reflector with bare
hands. (Hold with clean cloth or tissue when installing. It touched, wipe off fingerprints
before lighting.)
- To avoid damage to bulb, do not twist. Pull old bulb straight out and push new bulb
straight in.
- When used in equipment designed to provide cooling to operating lamp, do not obstruct
equipment cooling system.
- Socket condition may affect bulb life, replace socket if deterioration of socket or bulb
pins is observed.
