The KBL Tower pureEnergy is a vertical tanning device designed for commercial use, emphasizing both beauty and health. This service information manual provides comprehensive guidelines for its operation and maintenance to ensure optimal performance, longevity, and safety.

Function Description

The KBL Tower pureEnergy is a tanning device that utilizes UV low-pressure lamps to provide tanning services to users. It is designed for commercial environments, typically operated by studio operators who are responsible for its proper functioning and maintenance. The device aims to deliver effective tanning results while adhering to safety standards through its design and recommended maintenance protocols.

Important Technical Specifications

While specific power ratings for the entire device are not explicitly detailed, the manual provides information on key components:

UV Tubes: The device uses megaLine 2086 R 230W (TE-time 7 minutes, KBL item no.: 3230074855) and megaLine 2082 R 230W (TE-time 10 minutes, KBL item no.: 3230075060) UV low-pressure lamps. Only original or compatible lamps should be used, as using other types voids the operating license.
Starters: Approved starters include Solar ÖKO82 (4 - 230W Single) with a voltage range of 200-250 Vac, 50/60 Hz, and an operating temperature range of -5°C to +80°C (KBL item no.: 3200304120). Unsuitable starters can lead to electrical overstress.
Ballasts: Approved ballasts are Cosmedico cosmopower (74222) 225W/220V~60Hz (KBL item no.: 4200254211) and the KBL approved alternative May & Christe D225-24.2-6 225W-230W/220V~60Hz. Incorrect ballasts can also cause electrical overstress.
Capacitors: Approved capacitors include Electronicon E12.E43-404500 MKP 45 µF ±5% - 280V 50/60Hz (KBL item no.: 3200285000) and the KBL approved alternative Ducati - Series 4.16.31.96.93 MKP 45 µF ±5% - 280V 50/60Hz. Using unsuitable capacitors can result in electrical overstress.
Connectors: The device uses WAGO female connector (item no.: 3200443013) and WAGO male connector (item no.: 3200443011). Depending on the year of manufacture, Adels connectors may also be present, but in case of defect, all connectors must be replaced by WAGO connectors.
Dimensions: The device requires minimum distances from surrounding surfaces for proper airflow: 500 mm from the rear wall, 500 mm from side walls, 80 mm from the ceiling, and 70 mm from the bottom. The overall height of the device is approximately 2900 mm.

Usage Features

The KBL Tower pureEnergy is designed for commercial use, with specific roles and responsibilities outlined for different parties:

Studio Operator: Responsible for informing users about tanning risks, ensuring proper handling of the device, maintaining safety equipment, and ensuring the electrical installation includes an accessible, all-pole disconnecting device. They are also responsible for training staff and ensuring compliance with all regulations and maintenance intervals.
Staff: Responsible for the operation, cleaning, disinfection, and general maintenance work, as well as instructing users on how to operate the tanning devices. They must be trained on operating instructions, safety instructions, intended use, foreseeable misuse, and cleaning/disinfection procedures.
User: A person who uses the tanning device.
Safety: The device must only be used when in proper operational condition. All danger and safety labels must be observed and not removed. Safety equipment like thermal switches must not be removed, deactivated, or bypassed. Proper ventilation is crucial to prevent overheating, and any obstruction of air inflow/outflow areas is prohibited.

Maintenance Features

Preventive maintenance is critical for the KBL Tower pureEnergy's performance and longevity. The manual outlines detailed maintenance intervals and procedures:

General Information: Preventive maintenance involves regular practices to avoid future equipment problems. KBL provides knowledge to identify causes of malfunctions. An effective preventive maintenance program, including a checklist, is encouraged.
Qualified Service Technician: Assembly, installation, upgrade, or repair of the tanning device must only be carried out by qualified, trained, and authorized service technicians. Professional replacement of plug/socket is conducted from inside the tanning device.
Regular Inspections: The tanning device must be inspected regularly by an authorized KBL representative every 12 months from the date of the last inspection.
Overhaul: If the tanning device is in use for longer than 10 years, it must be completely overhauled by a qualified, trained, and authorized service technician.
Restart After Long Periods of Disuse: If the device has not been used for a longer period, it must be inspected by a qualified, trained, and authorized service technician before being put back into operation.
Maintenance Intervals (Component-Specific):
- Tubes: Replace after approx. 250 operating hours.
- aquaCool nozzles: Inspect and replace as necessary after approx. 500 operating hours, and replace after approx. 1000 operating hours.
- Electronic starters: Inspect and replace as necessary after 500 h / 6 months, and replace after 2000 h / 1 year.
- Acrylic panes: Inspect and replace as necessary after 2000 h / 1 year, and replace after 5000 h / 5 years.
- Sleeve of the door cable entry: Inspect and replace as necessary after 2000 h / 1 year.
- Chassis and associated fasteners: Inspect and replace as necessary after 2000 h / 1 year, and replace after 10000 h / 10 years.
- Wiring and associated plugs / terminal connections: Inspect and replace as necessary after 2000 h / 1 year, and replace after 10000 h / 10 years.
- Starter decorative lighting: Replace after 2000 h / 1 year.
- Electrolytic capacitors: Inspect and replace as necessary after 2000 h / 1 year, and replace after 10000 h / 10 years.
- Conductors: Inspect and replace as necessary after 2000 h / 1 year, and replace after 10000 h / 10 years.
Cleaning:
- After each tanning session: Comply with specified cleaning intervals as per operating instructions.
- Every 6 months: Clean the inside and outside of the device, ensuring it is free from dust, fluff, or objects. Check the correct position of plugs on the top rear of the appliance after cleaning. Insufficient cleaning can lead to overheating and damage. Cleaning works must be carried out by qualified, trained, and authorized service technicians.
Electrical Faults:
- Cables and connections: Ensure all cables have fault-free contact, loose wires are insulated, and no conductors show discolorations, deformations, or melting tracks. Any fault must be fixed by a qualified service technician before operation. Faulty wiring can lead to electrical overstress.
- Overstress Signs: Regularly check plugs and connectors for signs of electrical overstress such as discoloration, deformations, melting, or blisters on the housing. Affected components must be replaced immediately with OEM spare parts. If connecting cables show signs of overstress, they should be shortened, or the cable harness replaced completely.
- Assembly Information: Connectors must be plugged into the socket housing to the end stop without any distance between the plug and socket housing. Cable ties should not be applied too close to the connector plug, and wires must be routed at least 1.2 inches vertically out of the connector plug.
Record Keeping: An accurate record-keeping system for maintenance reports is required, documenting compliance with all maintenance periods.
Manual Availability: Ensure the manual detailing operating and maintenance instructions is always available and up to date.
OEM Spare Parts: Only OEM spare parts of the same type must be used. The use of non-genuine parts voids the manufacturer's warranty and excludes liability for resulting damage or injury.
Prohibited Modifications: Unauthorized changes or modifications to the tanning device are prohibited.
