  If the Newport Laboratory Equipment lamp doesn't start, several factors could be at play. First, ensure the power switch is turned ON and the orange light is lit brightly, also check the power cord. If it's not a power issue, verify the lamp is correctly installed following the installation procedure. Firm connections are important. It could also be a defective or old lamp. Try repeating the ignition sequence or replacing the lamp. Check that the lamp has a starter wire. If these steps don't work, it may be due to insulation breakdown or an interlock fault, in which case you should contact Oriel Instruments. Also, make sure that the top cover is in place.

  If the lamp in your Newport Laboratory Equipment explodes, it could be due to several reasons. The lamp might be defective, in which case you should replace it. It could also be an old lamp; replace lamps when stability becomes erratic, or output is less than 60% of original. Another cause might be a contaminated lamp envelope, so avoid handling the inside of the lamp reflector or lamp, and clean the lamp if needed. Also, ensure that the air vents are not blocked, needing > 1” clearance, < 40°C ambient air.
