Care, maintenance, lamp change
25
If it is necessary to return the SPECORD S600 used for the analysis of infectious ma-
terial to Analytik Jena AG for servicing, it must be decontaminated before and the de-
contamination procedure documented.
8.3 Changing lamps
8.3.1 Part numbers of lamps
Order spare lamps from Analytik Jena AG specifying the following Part Numbers:
Lamp Part No.
D
2
E lamp (deuterium lamp) 820-60021-0
Halogen lamp 820-60013-0
8.3.2 Note on the service life of lamps
The service life of lamps is:
Halogen lamp: > 500 h (at 5.0 V operating voltage)
Deuterium lamp: > 1000 h
The service life of the lamps is reduced, if the SPECORD S600 is frequently switched
on and off. This particularly applies to the deuterium lamp, because of the relatively
high ignition voltage required.
The following rule applies as criterion for the service life of the deuterium lamp:
With one daily ON/OFF switching operation, its radiation intensity is allowed to de-
crease to 50% after 1000 hours.
The deuterium lamp must be changed, if its heating coil has burnt out, its energy is
insufficient or the operating hours counter indicates 2000 h.
8.3.3 Opening the flap of the lamp compartment
The flap of the lamp compartment is to be opened read the operating hours of deu-
terium lamp or change the lamps.
1. Switch the SPECORD S600 off and allow the lamps to cool down sufficiently.
2. Release the lock (Fig. 12
/ 2) of the flap of the lamp compartment by folding the
lock frontward so it sticks out approximately vertically from the SPECORD S600.
3. Swing the flap upward.
