3.31.1 Inserting the HBO 103 W/2 mercury
vapor short-arc lamp
For safety reasons, the HBO 100 illuminator and
the HBO 103 W/2 mercury vapor short-arc lamp
are supplied separately packed.
Therefore, inserting the HBO 103 W/2 lamp into
the lamp housing is the first step to start up this
illuminator.
For a description of how to insert or replace the
HBO 103 W/2 lamp, read the instructions for use
supplied with it.
CAUTION
To reduce the transmission, use an
FL attenuator, discrete (423616-0000-
000 or 423617-0000-000). The gray
filters mounted in the 2-position filter
wheels (428300-0000-000 or 428301-
0000-000) are not permanently stable.
