16.2 Replacement of the fluorescent tubes
The average life expectancy of the fluorescent tubes is about 10,000 hours. We recommend replacing
the tubes every year in order to ensure full light intensity.
To replace the fluorescent tubes, unscrew and remove the clamping strips resting against the glass plate
(Allen screwdriver). Then lift the plate from the cassette. Rotate the tubes by 90° and pull them out of
their holders. When setting in the new tubes, observe the tube orientation (inscription, Figure 23). Fix the
glass plate and then screw in the clamping strips.
Figure 34: Dismounting a light cassette
Always replace all the fluorescent tubes of a light cassette together. Otherwise, homogeneity
of light intensity cannot be assured.
