Care and Maintenance To insure maximum light output of the system, all components must be clean. Dirt on the lamp and reflector will reduce the ultraviolet intensity by absorbing ultraviolet energy and turning it into unwanted infrared energy. Lamps and reflectors should be inspected and cleaned at least once each month.
Troubleshooting Problem Possible Causes Remedy Cure speed declines. – Lamp has reached end of • Replace lamp. useful life. – Lamp dirty. • Clean lamp (see Care and Maintenance Section). – Reflector dirty. • Clean reflector. – Outdated adhesive. • Replace with fresh adhesive.
