What if my lamp is discolored?

UV Curing Lamp FAQ
Discoloration can occur for several reasons. There is natural "blackening" of the quartz tube at each end during the life of the lamp. This is the result of the electrode material depositing on the inside of the tube during its use. Discoloration of the quartz will occur over time due to natural solarization or "clouding" of the quartz. This occurs as the quartz reverts to its natural crystalline structure, which is opaque to ultraviolet energy.

What if my lamp is bowed?

UV Curing Lamp FAQ
A bowed lamp should be replaced immediately along with evaluation of the lamp cooling system. This condition is a direct result of improper lamp cooling. The lamp must be controlled where the surface temperature is between 600 - 800 degrees C. If the air around the lamp is not properly controlled, this temperature will rise causing the quartz tube to soften and lose its rigidity. Adjust the cooling and airflow around the lamp to reduce the temperature of the lamp body.
