Replacing the UV Transilluminator Bulbs
Replacing the UV Transilluminator Bulbs
One or more transilluminator bulbs can fail at any time. Bio-Rad recommends that you
replace all six bulbs, including those that still work. Replacing all bulbs at once ensures
consistent light over the imaging stage.
To replace the transilluminator bulbs, use a 2.5 mm hex wrench.
Important: Transilluminator bulbs contain heavy metals, including mercury. Do not
throw used bulbs in the trash. Dispose of them in accordance with local recycling and
disposal guidelines.
To replace the bulbs
1. Turn off the power to the imager.
2. Disconnect the AC power cord from the imager.
