Extra Bright Lamp Module

General

n How it works

All current Kodak Slide Projectors are equipped with the Extra Bright Lamp Module offering
30% more light than compared to former models:

Ö more light
Ö more brillant colors
Ö higher contrast
Ö better legibility

Cold Light Mirror

IR Light

IR Light

Visible Light

Condenser

Removed
Heatfilter

According to a new cold light mirror the biggest part of the IR (heat) light
will be absorbed and not reflected. Therefore the heatfilter could be re­moved (see illustration). This system is unique to Kodak.

Safety Precautions

√ Do not use a lamp type EXW/15 h for the projector (higher temperature - lamp not

available from Kodak).

√ Consider the room temperature! It may not exceed 35 degrees C!

If these hints are not considered, mounts may deform!

According to a temperature increase in the slide gate which, therefore, needs more careful
handling when using slides, mounts and lamps.

With the higher light output of the Extra Bright Lamp Module the temperature in the slide gate rises.
To enable a smooth operation following hints should be considered:

√ Use only light respectively light gray slide mounts (e.g.

Wess slide mounts). Slide mounts with only one dark side or
black side have to be sorted in respectively, mounted with the
side facing the lamp. Please pay special attention when sorting
your slide mounts in rear projections:
