5. APPENDIX

General Maintenance

To maintain optimum performance and minimize wear fixtures should be cleaned

frequently. Usage and environment are contributing factors in determining frequency. As

a general rule, fixtures should be cleaned at least twice a month. Dust build up reduces

light output performance and can cause overheating. This can lead to reduced lamp life

and increased mechanical wear. Be sure to power off fixture before conducting

maintenance.

Unplug fixture from power. Use a vacuum or air compressor and a soft brush to remove

dust collected on external vents and internal components. Clean all glass when the fixture

is cold with a mild solution of glass cleaner or Isopropyl Alcohol and a soft lint free cotton

cloth or lens tissue. Apply solution to the cloth or tissue and drag dirt and grime to the

outside of the lens. Gently polish optical surfaces until they are free of haze and lint.

The cleaning of internal and external optical lenses and/or mirrors must be carried out

periodically to optimize light output. Cleaning frequency depends on the environment in

which the fixture operates: damp, smoky or particularly dirty surrounding can cause

greater accumulation of dirt on the unit’s optics. Clean with soft cloth using normal glass

cleaning fluid. - Always dry the parts carefully. - Clean the external optics at least every 20

days. Clean the internal optics at least every 30/60 days.
