Intend use:
The KL 1500 compact is intended for industrial and laboratory applications.
Cold light sources are used for the intensive illumination of all types of objects. The infrared
components in the lamp radiation are filtered out. High intensity visible light is guided to the object
through flexible or selfsupporting, moveable light guides.
The unit is tested and certificated to the applicable standards on electrical laboratory equipment
(DIN EN 61010-1 and UL 61010A-1 as well as CAN/CSA-022.2 No. 1010-1).

Safety information:
Please read and obey these instructions carefully. The intrument’s safety cannot be
guaranteed if they are not obeyed.
Avoid looking directly into the open light guide connection or the light guide exit when the light
source is switched on.
The KL 1500 compact emits high-intensity visible light. Because light-absorbing materials have the
physical property of converting incident light into heat, damage can occur to heat-sensitive or
flammable light-absorbing materials. To avoid such thermal damage and the potential danger of
fire or burns, please obey the following instructions:
• Never cover up the open light guide connection or the light guide exit (danger of fire)!
• Never cover up the open light guide connection or the light guide exit with your hand or other
part of the body (danger of burns)!
• When illuminating heat-sensitive or flammable light-absorbing objects (e.g. in microscopy),
special care must be taken to ensure that a suitable light guide separation distance and lamp
brightness are chosen so that no thermal damage occurs.
