Notes

1.

Lamp must not be operated with window facing upwards within

45º of vertical.

2.

Seal temperature must not exceed 150º C.

3.

Current/power regulated power supplies and PerkinElmer lamp

housing units are recommended.

4.

Lamp must be operated within recommended current and power

range. Over powering may lead to arc instability, hard starting

and premature aging.

5.

CERMAX lamps are much safer lamps to use than their quartz

xenon arc lamp equivalents. However, caution must be practiced

when operating lamps because they are under high pressure,

require high voltage, reach temperatures up to 200º C, and their

IR and UV radiation can cause skin burns and eye damage.
