Restriking a discharge lamp
Note that, when a discharge lamp is powered off, it must be allowed to
cool for 8 minutes before it is restruck.
Installing a discharge lamp
Warning! Wear safety glasses and gloves and allow the fixture to cool for
at least 10 minutes before replacing the lamp.
1. Disconnect the fixture from power and allow it to cool for at least 10
minutes.
2. Loosen the screw
holding the lamp
cover (see illustration
on right: EFX600
illustrated) and open
the cover. The cover
is attached to the
housing with a safety
strap.
3. Loosen the four small
screws (see illustration on right)
holding the lampholder and pull
the lampholder gently out of the
fixture. Note which edge faces
outwards, as the lampholder must
be reinstalled in the same
position.
4. If replacing an old lamp, remove it
from its ceramic socket.
5. Hold the new lamp by its base (do
not touch any other part of the
lamp). Push the lamp pins
squarely into the socket.
6. If you touched the bulb, the
reflector or any optical
components, clean them with a
clean, soft, lint-free cloth wetted
with isopropyl alcohol and dry with
a clean, soft, lint-free cloth or
compressed air.
