Cleaning the lamp filter screens
In dirty or dusty environments, the dust filter screens on the lamp module | screen |
and lamp door and in the lamp compartment can become clogged, causing |
|
high temperatures inside the lamp module. These high temperatures can | screen |
impact lamp performance and operating life. Routine maintenance to |
|
remove dust and dirt from the screens lowers the lamp operating tempera- |
|
ture and prolongs lamp life. To maximize lamp life you will need to clean |
|
the screens every 250 hours. Lamp screen maintenance may need to occur |
|
more often than 250 hours depending on your installation/use environ- |
|
ment. |
