Hazards
Xenon-arc lamps are an explosion hazard. Wear explosion-proof face-shield and
protective clothing when opening the lamp housing and handling the lamp.
Disconnect the lamp power supply from the AC power line (mains) while handling
lamp leads. Lethal high voltages may exist.
The lamp remains extremely hot for approximately one-half hour after it has been
turned off. Do not touch the lamp or the metal unit until the lamp has cooled.
Never look directly at the xenon arc or its reflection. Intense radiation can perma-
nently damage eyes.
Do not touch the focusing lens, back-scatter mirror, or the surface of the lamp. Fin-
gerprints will be burned onto these surfaces when the lamp is ignited.
