UVP Benchtop UV Transilluminator - Manual (Page 6)

Place gel/sample on the filter area. It is recommended to place the gels on a UVP Gel-Tray (see Section 10
for part number) to protects filter surface from cuts and scratches. It is recommended that gloves be worn
to avoid contact with gel and staining agents.
Press the ON/OFF switch to ON. The UV tubes within the unit should be glowing beneath the filter after a
momentary flickering during the start-up period.
After viewing/photographing the sample, turn the unit off.
Clean unit surface with a damp soft cloth or sponge. Never use abrasive cleaners (can damage the UV
filter surface).
