UVP Display Lamps - Manual

OPERATION
All display lamps are turned on and off with a single switch. Each lamp is
supplied with an eight-foot cord and plus brackets for hanging the lamp.
REPLACING A FIL TER
Shortwave filters are subject to deterioration due to solarization, and need
replacement periodically. Depending on the application, a lifetime of 500 to
1000 or more hours of operation can be expected. A display lamp is normally
in a fixed position. Not all fluorescent minerals have the same brightness
response. The brighter specimens will often respond for over 1000 hours if
within a reasonably close range, but if you are showing specimens of lower
level of fluorescent response, you may have to bring the lamp closer or
replace filters earlier than normal.
T o change the filter , remove the two screws on the filter frame and remove
end bracket. Replace the filter/frame assembly and screws.
REPLACING THE TUBES
T o replace the tubes in the lamp s, remove the two screws on each side of the
unit and remove the filter cover. Carefully twist tubes out using care when
removing. Note that the reflector is not screwed into the housing. If lamp
does not light after replacing the bulbs, replace the st arter. For any other
questions, contact UVP’s offices.
MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
All lamps come with wall mounting brackets attached to the housing. Simply
bolt or screw the brackets to the desired location. The lamp can be mounted
horizontally or vertically .

ACCESSORIES
Blak-Ray® Safety Goggles and Contrast Control Spectacles ... Eyewear
is recommended when using any shortwave UV product. Special formula
lenses reduces “blue haze” interference while protecting eyes form harmful
bands of UV . UVC-503 Goggles provide maximum protection from extended
or high intensity UV light sources while the UVC-303 Spectacles are used for
sporadic lower intensity UV light sources and can be worn comfortably over
prescription glasses.
Ultraviolet Intensity Meters ... For widest energy range measurements,
highest accuracy , and interchangeable sensors (ordered sep arately) for mea-
surements at 365nm, 300nm and 254nm, the new UVX Digital Radiometer
can be used. Units are hand-held, battery operated, and have compact sen-
sors with 3' electrically shielded cord. Also available are Blak-Ray Meters in
models J-221, which measures longwave (365nm), or J-225 shortwave (254nm)
ultraviolet. Compact (fits in the hand). Removable sensors call for ease of
operation. Highly accurate. For measuring ultraviolet intensity from ultraviolet
sources.
