Superlux Eye light source
Warning!
The xenon lamp has a limited service life of 500 h.
If used beyond its maximum service life, the xenon lamp may explode.
• Replace the xenon lamp in good time.
• Reset the service hour counter to "0" after replacing the lamp.
The Superlux Eye light source is equipped with a xenon lamp, a blue bar-
rier filter (retina protection filter) and an optionally selectable filter. The
xenon lamp generates light whose spectrum resembles that of natural
daylight. Regardless of the brightness setting, the color temperature of
the light always remains the same. This permits normal daylight film
without any additional conversion filters to be used for photographic doc-
umentation. The second xenon lamp is used as a backup lamp which has
to be swung into the illumination beam path when the first xenon lamp
fails.
– The standard version of the Superlux Eye light source is marked on
the front panel by the number 304977-9011-500. In addition to the
blue barrier filter (retina protection filter), this light source contains the
HaMode filter which generates a light spectrum similar to that of the
halogen light source.
– The Superlux Eye light source is optionally available with the 485 mm
fluorescence excitation filter that makes fluorescent areas visible. This
version, which is also equipped with the blue barrier filter (retina pro-
tection filter), is marked on the front panel by the number 304977-
9012-500.
Note:
Do not cover the ventilation grid! For example, drapes could be covering
the grid. This can lead to overheating of the lamp modules and to lamp
failure.
