Your new Aseptico ALU-40LED Lamp is one of the finest operating lights available to
the dental and medical professions. The ALU-40LED uses an LED light source which
provides brilliant white light, reduced power consumption, and longer operating life.
The universal voltage input Lamp operates from 100VAC to 240VAC, 50 and 60Hz,
and it provides an auxillary DC input that allows 12V and 24V battery operation in the
field. The ALU-40LED features a compact lamp head with adjustable intensity and
spotlight aperature controls, flexible gooseneck, telescoping tripod stand and padded
carrying case.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS:
Aseptico accepts no liability for direct or consequential injury or damage resulting from improper
use, arising in particular through the non-observance of the operating instructions, or improper
preparation and maintenance of this product.
CAUTION: Use for intended purposes only. Failure to observe the operating instructions may
result in the patient or user suffering serious injury or the product being damaged,
possibly beyond repair. Before using this product, make sure that you have studied
and understood the operating instructions.
CAUTION: Use of other Lamp filters or accessories from third-party manufacturers is the sole
responsibility of the user.
CAUTION: All repairs to the LED Assembly, Boom Arm, and Power Supply are to be performed
by authorized Aseptico service personnel only.
WARNING: Do not install where there is a risk of an explosion. The ALU-40LED is not intended
for operation in the presence of flammable anesthetics or gases.
CAUTION: Connect AC power supply mains cable to a properly grounded outlet only.
CAUTION: The ALU-40LED Lamp is sensitive to shock and may be damaged if dropped or
impacted against a hard surface.
WARNING: Do not disassemble or alter the Lamp's LED, Boom Arm, or Power Supply
subassemblies.
CAUTION: It is recommended to always have the patient wear darkened eyewear during
dental procedures. Avoid looking directly into the LED when Lamp is turned on.
CAUTION: If the Lens Cover and/or acrylic Fresnel Lens on the Lamp Head needs to be
cleaned, use reagent-grade isopropyl alcohol, professional lens cleaning solution, or
de-ionized water with a small amount of dish soap - do not use other solvents as
they might adversely react with the Lens materials.
To prevent injury to people and damage to property, please heed relevant warnings and
remarks. They are marked as follows:
WARNING: Serious injury or death may result if ignored.
CAUTION: Damage to property or the environment may result if ignored.
NOTE: Important additional information and hints.

3. Attach power cord to receptacle on
bottom of power supply housing (see
Figure 2, page 3) and plug cord into a
grounded electrical outlet. NOTE: The
ALU-40LED Lamp features auto-sensing,
global voltage compatibility for 100VAC,
115VAC, 230VAC, and 240VAC at 50Hz
and 60Hz. The fuses provided are correct
for these line voltages. NOTE: A USA
style 110V power cord and 220V adapter
are shipped with the unit. Power plug
adapters for the specific country of usage
may need to be purchased separately.
Optional DC Power:
If the power source is 12VDC or 24VDC,
use the optional DC Battery Clip or
Adapter Assemblies (see Figure 3) to
connect to the DC source. Insert the
Assemblies' Power Plugs into the DC
Power Jack located on the bottom of the
power supply housing (see Figure 2, page
3).
NOTE: When attaching the optional DC
Battery Clips to the battery, connect the
red cable clamp to the positive (+)
terminal, and the black clamp to the
negative (-) terminal.

After the ALU-40LED Lamp has been set up,
the unit is ready to operate:
1. Ensure that the protective Lens Cover is
mounted onto the front of the Lamp Head
(see Figure 4).
IMPORTANT: If applying light-activated
composites, it is recommended that the
supplied Color Filter, PN: 461974, be
used to filter the light from the ALU-40LED
Lamp. To install the Filter, remove the
Lens Cover and place the Filter against
the inside of the Cover (see Figure 5,
page 6). Center the Filter so that it
completely covers the transparent shield
on the Cover. Replace the Lens Cover.
2. Turn On/Off switch located on bottom of
power supply housing to On (—) position
(see Figure 2, page 3).
3. Adjust light intensity and spot size by
rotating the two adjustment rings on the
Lamp Head (see Figure 4):
a) LED Intensity Adjustment Ring:
Provides variable brightness control.
When viewed from the rear of the
Lamp Head, rotate Ring clockwise to
increase lamp intensity, or counter-
clockwise to decrease intensity. The
intensity adjustment range is from 0%
to 100%. NOTE: The total adjustment
range of the Intensity Ring covers
approximately 90° of rotation -- do not
OPERATION:
attempt to force the Ring past the
stops at each end of this range.
b) LED Aperture Adjustment Ring:
Allows user to select from seven
different beam aperture sizes. When
viewed from the rear of the Lamp
Head, rotate the Ring counterclock-
wise to increase beam width, and
clockwise to decrease width. NOTE:
When the Aperture Ring is rotated
continuously in one direction, the
Lamp will repeatedly cycle through the
seven aperture sizes.

NOTE: The Lens Cover, Color Filter,
Fresnel lens, Vertical Stand, Fuses, and
Power Cords are the only user replace-
able parts on the ALU-40LED Lamp. All
other Lamp components, such as the
LED Assembly, Power Supply, and Boom
Assembly are not field serviceable and
must be returned to Aseptico if repairs are
required.
1. FRESNEL LENS REPLACEMENT:
Procure the optional Fresnel Lens
Replacement Kit, PN: AA-40LK, from
Aseptico. Follow these steps to replace
the Lens (see Figure 5):
a) Turn ALU-40LED power Off and
unplug Lamp from power source.
b) Pull Lens Cover (461936) off the front
of Lamp Head to expose the Fresnel
Lens (461935).
c) Use the Torx Key (490140) to remove
the three Torx Fasteners (510727). Set
Fasteners aside temporarily.
d) Remove old Fresnel Lens and replace
with new Lens, positioning new Lens,
rough side out, on the outer shelf on
the Front Housing (see Figure 7).
e) Attach Lens to Housing with the three
Fasteners from Step 1c above.
f) Replace Lens Cover.
2. LENS ADJUSTMENT:
Follow these steps to adjust the position
of the Lens so that it emits the sharpest
beam (refer to Figures 6 & 7):
a) Position Lamp Head approximately
28" (71 cm) away from a flat test
surface. Turn Lamp On and observe
sharpness of projected light beam (see
Figure 5).
b) If outer edge of beam appears blurred
or undefined, reposition the Lens on
the next inboard shelf (see Figure 7) of
the Housing (refer to Step 1 for
complete instructions when detaching
and reattaching the Fresnel Lens).
c) Repeat Step 2b, moving the Lens
inward to the next shelf until the edge
of the beam shows optimum sharpness
and clarity. NOTE: There are a total of
five different Lens adjustment shelves
in the Front Housing (see Figure 7).

3. FUSE REPLACEMENT:
a) Remove the Fuse Holder from the
Power Inlet connector (see Figure 8).
b) Replace the two fuses in Fuse holder.
Replacement Fuses (2):
0.160A, 250V slo-blow fuse
(Fuse size: 5 x 20mm)
c) Reinstall the Fuse Holder.
NOTE: The ALU-40LED features auto-
sensing, global voltage compatibility.
The fuses indicated are correct for
100V-240V 50/60 Hz line voltages.
4. CLEANING:
a) Fresnel Lens:
Remove Lens Cover and Fresnel
Lens from Lamp Head. (IMPORTANT:
Handle the Fresnel Lens by its edges
-- do not handle the active surface of
the Lens.) The acrylic Fresnel lens is
fragile and can be scratched. Dust is
the most common contaminant and
should be removed using compressed
air. If additional cleaning is necessary,
apply a few drops of reagent-grade
isopropyl alcohol, professional lens
cleaning solution, or de-ionized water
with a small amount of dish soap, to a
lint-free lens tissue and gently wipe
Lens. Clean the Lens Cover using the
same method. Reinstall Fresnel Lens
and Lens Cover onto Lamp Head.
b) Metal Components:
The metal exterior may be cleaned by
wiping with a soft cloth moistened with
mild detergent or disinfecting solution
such as isopropal alcohol.
c) Gooseneck & Electrical Cords:
Turn Lamp power Off. Wipe down the
gooseneck and electrical cords with a
cloth moistened with disinfecting
solution.
Turn the power off and unplug the
unit before following the steps below.
IMPORTANT
The LED Assembly is a non-serviceable
component of the ALU-40LED Lamp.
Return the entire Lamp Assembly to
Aseptico if LED repairs are necessary.
