Page 5: Introduction
The output power emission of the available UV LED Head is adjustable in 1% increments from 5% to 100% to provide light for your application. In order to set your OmniCure LX500 series at specific irradiance levels (W/cm2), we suggest running trials to optimize the results for the UV cured glues and adhesives used. -
Page 6: Safety Precautions/ User Warnings
Optical Density ≥ 6 Warning: Should the OmniCure® LX500 System be used in a manner not specified by Excelitas Technologies, the protection provided by the equipment may be impaired. The UV LED Head operation can be affected if handled incorrectly. Never touch the protective lens cover assembly of the UV LED Head. - Page 7 OmniCure® LX500 Series UV Curing Solutions Warning: Monitoring the system during automated operation: The level of UV energy supplied by the OmniCure® LX500 System is sufficient to ignite flammable substances. Therefore, when the unit is operated unattended in an automated environment, an alarm function must be provided by the user to indicate a malfunction in the associated equipment used.
