Maintenance 121
Checking and replenishing the lamp coolant
Materials required:
• Lamp coolant additive
(REF 04533710, PN B01-4496-51)
• Deionized water
Time: 5 minutes
Analyzer mode: READY
BIOHAZARD
Wear personal protective equipment.
Use universal precautions.
The lamp is cooled by circulating liquid coolant. As the volume of coolant decreases, the
heat of the lamp increases.
NOTE: Check the lamp coolant level weekly and whenever the system generates a lamp
coolant warning and turns off the lamp.
1. Lift off the lamp access cover (1) to gain access to the lamp coolant reservoir.
2. Check the fluid level in the reservoir.
If the level is between the 5- and 9-cm marks, the label is green on the reservoir,
proceed to step 4.
If the reservoir fluid level is less than 5 cm, the label is red on the reservoir, add
coolant as follows:
a. Turn the reservoir cover counterclockwise to remove it.
b. Fill the reservoir to the 9-cm mark with a 5% solution of lamp coolant additive
(B01-4496-51) in deionized water.

9-cm Mark
2) 5-cm Mark
