CAUTION: OBSERVE ALL SAFETY PROCEDURES. Put on the protective face
mask. Wear clean cotton gloves to prevent marking the quartz envelope of the bulb with fingerprints.
REMOVE THE TOP COVER of the lamphouse by removing the four Holt head
(tamperproof) screws with the special screwdriver provided.
NO BULB ADAPTERS are required to install the 2000 watt bulb in the Xenon Super
Trouper lamphouse. Components and adapters required to install the 1000 watt or 1600 watt bulb
in the lamphouse are available in an optional Adapter Kit (Part No. 7201192). See the Bulb Adapter
illustration on the facing page for the cor r ect adapters and method of assembly.
1000 & 1600 Watt Bulb Installation
DISMOUNT AND REMOVE the front bulb mounting ring assembly from the air duct
casting in front of the reflector and replace it with the smaller bulb support yoke casting included in
the 7201192 Bulb Adapter Kit. Install the 65148000 cathode clamp in place of the standard 2 kW
clamp. Remove the rear bulb support collet assembly (nylon rod and brass socket) from the bulb focus
assembly behind the reflector and replace it with the collet assembly included in the Bulb Adapter Kit.
ASSEMBLE THE REQUIRED ADAPTERS to the 1000 or 1600 watt bulb prior to
inserting the bulb into the lamphouse. Be very careful not to apply any strain on the quartz envelope
when installing adapters. Handle the bulb by its metal end caps only. Screw the threaded cathode
adapter onto the negative stud so it seats firmly against the shoulder of the cathode (-) end cap.
Apply torque using the pins on the cathode end cap. Slip the anode adapter with set screw over the
positive stud, up to the shoulder of the anode (+) end cap. Tighten all fasteners securely to insure
a good electrical connection.
REMOVE THE PLASTIC PROTECTIVE COVER from the xenon bulb only if nec-
essary. Insert the bulb through the top of the lamphouse, between the reflector support and the front
casting. Pass the anode (+) end of the bulb through the hole in the reflector, taking care not to touch
the surface of the reflector.
INSERT THE ANODE ADAPTER STEM of 1000 and 1600 watt bulbs into the rear
support collet. The stem must be inserted into the socket as far as possible to permit full focus travel
of the bulb. Place the stem of the cathode adapter into front bulb support yoke, pivot the retaining
plate to its closed position, and tighten the (2) thumb screws. Tighten the socket head clamping screw
in the anode contact securely to insure a good electrical contact.
INSTALL THE CATHODE LEAD CONTACT over the end of the cathode adapter
up to the shoulder of the contact and tighten the clamping screw securely. Dress the lead in front of
the air duct to minimize the shadow.
