Vacuum UV-Exposure Box

...for expose UV-ligth sensitive foils and plates

Vaccum UV Exposure Boxes shall used for exposure foto sensitive materials such as base
materials, printed plates, front plates or foto sensitive films.
Using the devices is very easy and user-friendly. The oscillator-based electronic timer allows the
precise adjustment of the exposure time, only with 1-knob operation (mode, time, Start/Stop). The
seven-segment LED display is showing the adjusted time and while the device is active the
remaining time.
The device integrates high intensive lamps (ACTINIC) and ensures by this short exposure time and
good contrast.
Vaccum UV Exposure Boxes are designed for using in dry rooms, schools, living rooms, office, as
well in laboratory and small factories

DANGER!

1. Starting up

1.1 Placement

The device ought to be placed onto a horizontal, stable base (e. g. workbench,
table) with the control elements pointing to the front.
The room must to be darkned.

1.2 Mounting lamps

In some device we demount the lamps
after function test and VDE check. This
is because of problems while shipping
the goods. In this cases the lamps a
laying inside the bottom of the device
and the glass plate is fixed inside PE­foam plastic at the top of the device.
So, before using the Exposure Box you
have to mount the lamps and the glass
plate.

Instruction for mounting / changing
the lamps

1. Open upper cover of the device and
turn glass plate (1) to upper point. Fix
the position and make sure, that the
glass plate can´t drop down.
If you want to change the lamps,
please remove the old one by turning
them inside the socket (2) about 90°
(2x click)

2. Take the new lamps out of the
transport package. For mounting the
lamps, you must plug in the lamps at
the same time in the left and the right
socket and turn the lamp inside the
socket 90° (2x click). Please make
sure, that after mounting the lamps,
the label is showing to the bottom of
the device.

3. Mount the spiral springs at the thread
bolt (3). Please check, that no spiral
springs are in contact with wires!

4. Before mounting the glass plate in the
exposure box again, you have to
insert the air tube of the vaccum
pump into the rubber ring of the glass
plate (4).
Note: If you take some water for lube,
mounting the air tube will be easier.
Move the tube approx. 5cm out of the
rubber ring. Take a blade and cut the
tube above the ring.

5. After this place the glass plate on the
frontside spiral spring and press the
plate carefully down. Now you can
move the glass plate below the
aluminum profile.

1.3 Maintenance

The exposure box is free of service.
Only the ACITINIC lamps lose intensity during operation (approx.:. 15% after
1000 h).
The vacuum frame is built out of a glass plate with a thin PVC foil on top.
Please pay attention to the PVC-foil and the rubber frame mounted on the
base plate. If something is damaged, you won´t get the vacuum.
