CALIBRATION for 3000 WATT UNITS
This page will show you how to
calibrate your equipment if necessary.
A new lamp should be used as this
procedure will reset the “LAMP TEST”
feature. You will want to measure your
lamp’s UV as compared to a new lamp.
The Integrator was calibrated at the factory
and will not need calibration unless the
Lamp Test with a new lamp does not show
a number between 80 and 120.
TO RECALIBRATE THE AdVantage
20 INTEGRATOR:
Press ‘LAMP ON’. Wait about 2 minutes for the lamp temperature to stabilize. Make
every effort to maintain the lamp’s temperature throughout the entire procedure.
Press ‘RESET’ to turn the lamp off.
Press ‘LAMP ON’ 2 times.
Take note of the number to which the read out scrolls.
Press ‘RESET’ to turn the lamp off.
Locate the photosensor by removing the two screws securing the front panel to the main
frame of the unit, and allowing the panel to rest on its bottom hinge.
The sensor can be rotated by hand, but its holding screw many need loosening.
A slight rotation of the sensor greatly affects calibration.
Rotate the photosensor based on the number noted above. Aim for the range 90-110.
• If the number is low, you will need to slightly rotate the photosensor toward the light
source to see more light.
• If it is high, you will need to slightly rotate the photosensor away from the light
source to see less light.
WARNING: Light leaks with panel open. Always
hold the panel CLOSED before pressing ‘LAMP ON’.
Repeat pressing ‘LAMP ON’ 2 times to see where the read out stops. If the number is
not within range, rotate the photosensor as necessary and repeat the procedure.
Once the read out stops at a number in range, allow the lamp temperature to stabilize,
and perform the following steps in rapid succession.
Scroll to Program C; then press and hold ‘EXP SET’.
While holding ‘EXP SET’, press ‘START’.
Release ‘EXP SET’ and ‘START’. The counter will increase to a number and hold.
The number should be between 90 and 110, just as it was in the step above.
Press ‘START’. The display will read “CAL”.
Calibration is now complete. Press ‘RESET’ to resume normal operation.
