Safety First
The PhotoFluor II family of light sources use a powerful lamp that
produces heat as well as visible and UV light. Proper care must be
taken in the setup and operation to prevent injury.
The lamp should only be handled wearing gloves
and suitable eye protection.
When operating, the lamp produces significant
amounts of ultraviolet radiation. Never look
directly at the lamp or at light reflected from the
lamp or the output from the liquid light guide.
Do not expose skin directly to the output of the
liquid light guide.
WARNING: Use only the recommended bulb replacement.
Never substitute the bulb with another
manufacturer’s bulb.
WARNING: DON’T BE A FOOL, LET IT COOL. The lamp
produces significant amounts of heat. Always allow
the light source components to cool to ambient
temperature before attempting any adjustments or
replacement of parts.
WARNING: After 1500 hours of operation, the metal halide lamp
must be replaced to ensure suitable performance
and safety. The light source will alert the user at
1500 hours that the lamp is due for replacement.
At 1600 hours, the engine will cease operation as
the bulb is no longer safe to use.
WARNING: Used lamps should not be discarded in the
conventional waste stream. The lamps contain
metals that must be handled as potentially toxic.

WARNING:
Inhaling mercury vapor or small particles of
mercury or its compounds can be harmful to
lungs, kidneys, and the nervous system.
Injuries to one’s health can also arise due to
penetration of the skin or resorption via the
gastro-enteric tract.
WARNING:
To prevent risk of explosion:
Replace lamp after 1500 hours of use with
the required bulb only
Do not bump the unit while in use
Do not touch any portion of the bulb except
the ceramic base and power wires as
improper handling may shorten bulb life and
may lead to catastrophic failure of the lamp.
WARNING:
LAMP EXPLOSION HAZARD - The lamp
contains toxic gasses under high pressure. In
the event of an explosion, mercury vapor, high
temperature gasses, and very fine glass may
exit the unit.
All persons should leave the surrounding area
at once to prevent mercury inhalation.
The area should be ventilated for 30 minutes.
The area surrounding the light source should
be cleaned using an appropriate absorbent
such as Mercurisorb® or Mercon™ Mercury
Spill Kit II or Mercury Spill Clean-Up Kit.

And now . . . Replacing the Lamp
The PhotoFluor II and PhotoFluor II NIR 200 Watt lamps must be
properly installed to allow ignition, proper cooling and alignment to
assure the longevity of the bulb. Your unit is shipped with the lamp
installed. When removing the lamp, take care not to touch the
reflector surface (inside or outside) as finger oils or
contaminants will harm the bulb. The lamp’s connector must be
properly installed.
After installing the bulb and the unit is turned on, you must reset the
lamp counter.
The bulb is pictured below:
The lamp should only be handled wearing gloves
and suitable eye protection.
