What to do if the dymax Medical Equipment system has low output intensity?
- S
  Sierra ReeseAug 13, 2025
  If your dymax Medical Equipment system has low output intensity, it could be due to several reasons. The bulb may be beyond its useful life (typically 2,000 hours), in which case you should replace the Bulb/Reflector Assembly. Another cause could be excessive transmission loss in the Lightguide, which would require replacing the Lightguide. Contaminants on the Lightguide can also reduce intensity; clean it with isopropyl alcohol (or equivalent), using a razor blade for heavy deposits. If cleaning isn't effective, replace the Lightguide. Finally, ensure the Bulb/Reflector Assembly is properly installed.

How to fix a dymax Medical Equipment bulb that will not ignite?

  Margaret KingAug 17, 2025
  If the bulb in your dymax Medical Equipment will not ignite, there are a few potential causes. First, check and secure all connections. If the bulb has exceeded its useful life of 2,000 hours, replace it with a new Bulb/Reflector Assembly and reset the Bulb Hour Meter. Also, inspect the Main Line Fuse; if it's blown (and nothing in the unit operates), replace the defective fuse.

Why is the intensity low on my dymax Medical Equipment, even with a new bulb?
- L
  lauramontoyaAug 21, 2025
  Low intensity on your dymax Medical Equipment, even with a new bulb, could be due to several factors. The light intensity may be decreased as the light that passes through the filter is restricted by dust and debris. Ensure the lightguide is fully seated into the lightguide mount. Adhesive buildup on the end of the lightguide can also reduce intensity; carefully remove it with isopropyl alcohol or a razor blade for heavier deposits. Also, a 200 Watt bulb will not reach full intensity for five minutes. Refer to the bulb installation instructions supplied with all new 200 Watt bulbs for the proper installation procedure.

Why does my dymax BlueWave 200 Medical Equipment run very hot?
- S
  Spencer HoffmanAug 25, 2025
  If your dymax BlueWave 200 Medical Equipment runs very hot, replace the fan filter media on the exhaust fan and vent located in the back of the equipment. Also, confirm that the intake fan is not feeding from the exhaust of other equipment and that both intake and exhaust fans are operating. If the equipment is already full of dust and debris, it may be overheating the internal electronics.

What to do if new bulb in dymax Medical Equipment still will not ignite?
- J
  Jonathan EscobarAug 28, 2025
  If you've installed a new bulb in your dymax Medical Equipment and it still won't ignite, it's possible the equipment has reached the safety shutdown point. When this happens, the BlueWave 200 will no longer supply an ignition voltage until a new bulb is installed and the reset switch is pressed on the back of the unit. Also, make sure the bulb connector is fully seated into the igniter.

What causes the shutter on my dymax Medical Equipment to hesitate when I use the footswitch?
- W
  William GallagherSep 1, 2025
  If the shutter on your dymax Medical Equipment hesitates to open when you activate the footswitch, it could be due to dust and other debris collecting on the mechanical parts. Maintaining clean equipment and a clean working environment will help prevent the buildup. The shutter alignment to the reflector mount may be incorrect. The shutter is a mechanical part which may wear after extended use. The shutter and the bulb mount assembly may be aligned incorrectly.

  Jacob AguilarSep 5, 2025
  If the shutter on your dymax Medical Equipment sometimes hesitates to close, it could be because dust and debris can collect and cause the shutter to work improperly. Shutter alignment to reflector mount may be incorrect. The shutter is a mechanical part which may wear after extended use. The shutter and the bulb mount assembly may be aligned incorrectly.
