ther he or she considers the measuring results to be

• The UV torchlight produces UV-A radiation in the
visible range of <400 nm. In this UV range the eyelid
closure reflex of the eye does not work.Therefore, un-
der no circumstances, look on the UV-LED or
in the beam, and make sure that you don’t il-
luminate any other people and animals direct-
ly. When used in direct object near the reflected UV
radiation is stronger and more intense than in several
metres distance. If it is necessary to operate a UV-
LED, always use suitable UV filters or googles accor-
ding to CE-EN166 to prevent eye damage. Also avoid
prolonged exposure of the skin or other living tissue.
Keep UV-LEDs always out of the reach of children and
avoid the operation of the UV-LED when children are
near by! Never give the LED torchlight to unauthorized
persons or children or leave them unattended.
- Within the light cone, you must not use optics to
focus the light rays.
- The LED is not replaceable. Please neither attempt
to remove nor touch it!

02. Intended Purpose and Use
The UV Torchlight 15F is a professional LED UV torch
with adjustable focus for locating UV active objects and
substances in industry, building physics, chemistry and
forensics. The device may be used for these purposes
only and within the thresholds as specified in the tech-
nical data. Any other use is considered improper.
In accordance with EU Directives, electronic
equipment must not be treated as domestic
waste and must be disposed of in a proper
manner in accordance with Directive 2002/96EU of the
EUROPEAN COUNCILAND PARLIAMENT of 27 January
2003 regarding old electrical and electronic equipment.
Please dispose of this appliance in a manner appropri-
ate to the relevant legal requirements at the end of its
product life.
03. Scope of Delivery

The focus of the light beam can be adjusted by turning
the head of the torch 1. Do NOT adjust the focus of
the torch when the torch is under water as this would
allow water to enter the housing! Insert the battery in-
cluded in the scope of delivery and switch on the torch
to ensure that it is working properly. Direct the beam of
the lamp at a banknote, for example, or any other object
which is known to contain UV active substances, from a
distance of approximately 1 m. The active substances
will become immediately visible if the torch is working
properly.
Next check the focus of the torch by adjusting the fo-
cus from minimum to maximum. The beam of the light
should change from a pinpoint beam to a broad beam
and vice versa. Repeat this procedure with a variety
of different objects at a distance of approximately 1m
in order to gain a feeling for the way the beam can be
adjusted. Generally speaking, the illuminated area be-
comes smaller the more focused the beam is, which in
turn means that fluorescent traces can be detected over
greater distances because the beam is so intense. In
contrast, a broad beam can illuminate a larger area, but
does not allow you to detect objects or traces which are
further away from the torch.
05. Getting Started
Inserting the rechargeable battery
Unscrew the tailcap 2of the torch and insert the 18650
li-ion rechargeable battery or the 2 CR123A batteries in-
cluded in the scope of delivery. Screw the tailcap back on.
Switching on/off
Momentarylight:Pressswitch Agently.
Continuous light: Press switch Ahard. Press the switch
again to power off.

Charging the 18650 li-ion batteries with the CH-01
charger included in the scope of delivery:
The rechargeable battery can be replaced regardless of
its charge state. Place the rechargeable battery in the
CH-01 charger and ensure that the positive pole is posi-
tioned in the direction of the LED. The LED remains red
until the battery is fully charged.The green LED lights up
when the battery is fully charged.
Take the rechargeable battery out of the charger and
disconnect the charger from the mains power supply.
Only charge 18650 / LRB-168A li-ion rechargeable bat-
teries with battery overvoltage protection in the CH-01
charger!
The rechargeable battery included in the scope of deli-
very is pre charged.
The charging cycle lasts a maximum of 3.5 hours.
If you are planning on not using the battery for longer
than 2 months, charge the battery to its full capacity
before storing.
06. Troubleshooting
Problem Possible cause
Light of the
torch does not
go on
Is the positive pole of the rechar-
geable battery / batteries facing
towards the head of the torch?
Rechargeable battery / batteries full?
Is the tailcap screwed firmly on to
the battery housing?
Solution
If the torch light goes on when the negative pole of the
rechargeable battery / the rear battery is connected to
the bare aluminium of the torch with a paper clip, for
example, then the switch on the tailcap is defective.
This is a spare part and can be ordered separately.
If your torch still fails to work, please contact our Service
Hotline on +49 2452 962-450.
