Bowens Esprit 250 Operating Instructions.
1.
General
Welcome to the world-wide family of Bowens flash equipment users, and
congratulations on selecting the latest compact flash in our range. The Esprit
250 has been designed using the latest technology, to produce a unit that is
very simple to operate, small in size and weight, yet has a powerful output.

Safety Notes
i.
The Esprit 250 must not be used in an environment where moisture or
flammable vapour is likely to come in contact with the unit.
ii.
A fire hazard exists if flammable materials are placed in close
proximity to either the flashtube or modelling bulb when the unit is in
use.
iii.
The charging and modelling circuitry of the Esprit 250 is protected by
a 5A (F) 20mm fuse mounted on the rear panel (Fig.1. 3). Disconnect
the supply before changing the fuse. Never replace with a fuse of a
different rating. A spare 5A fuse is fitted in the fuse holder.
iv.
Switch off and disconnect supply before changing fuse, modelling bulb
or flashtube.
v.
Do not restrict slots in case when in use.
vi.
Care must be exercised when handling equipment that has been in use.
The reflector and front end of the unit can become Very Hot.
vii.
Due to the high voltage/high energy used in the Esprit 250, servicing
must be carried out by a qualified, authorised Service Centre.
