7.6. OPTIMIZER REFLECTOR

The SLC OPTIMIZER reflector is designed to give maximum performance (light output) when the Xenon lamp has reached the optimum operating temperature for arc size and stability (two to three minutes). Ensure that the DC current setting to the lamp is correct and the lamp temperature has stabilized before making final autofocus adjustment.

Do not allow the current to exceed the rated maximum lamp current or be below 10% of that value.

WARNING

7.7. ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

It is very important that all electrical connections are mechanically secure or tight. The DC connections are especially important due to their relatively high current and low voltage. A loose lamp connection causes overheating of the lamp and premature failure. A periodic inspection should be made regularly, at least every 60 days.

7.8. AIRFLOW

Proper airflow for cooling the Xenon lamp is very important to sustain lamp life. Clean blower wheels and oil blower motors at least every six months as described in Section 7.3.1. Be careful not to disturb or remove the balance weights on the blower wheel while cleaning.

7.9. REMOTE LAMP ADJUSTMENT CONTROL (OPTION RBA)

The remote lamp adjustment control unit is equipped with a six-foot umbilical cord. This cord enables the operator to stand at the viewport while operating the lamp adjustments to attain maximum screen illumination. The RBA is a plug-in unit, and can be moved between SLC lamphouses.

The lamp autofocus switch must be in the OFF position to operate the remote lamp adjustment unit.
