1.3Description Of 355 Lighting System
A. General Description (See Figure 1-1).
The 355 Lighting System is a general purpose lighting
system designed specifically for performing general
medical examinations and procedures. Listed are the
two different models available:
The major serviceable components of the lighting system are the transformer, fuse / fuse holder, bulb socket,
ON / STANDBY switch, main pivot stop, counterbalance
assembly, ball pivot joint assembly which includes ball
pivot stop, lamp tube pivot stop, lighthead pivot bearing
stop, lamp tube brake assembly, lighthead brake
assembly, and top cap assembly.
B. Model 355 (-001 thru -004 & -007 thru -010) The-
ory of Operation (See Figure 5-1 for wiring diagram / electrical schematic)
Line voltage is supplied thru the line fuse (F1) to the
transformer. If to o m uch c ur rent is dr a wn by the lighting
system's circuitry, the line fuse (F1) blows. The transformer will provide 12.27 +/- 0.37 VAC output to power
the light circuit based on an ideal 120.0 VAC input.
Because there are facilities which cannot supply the
ideal level of input voltage, the transformer is designed
with three different primary input taps which can be
used, based on the voltage level av ailable at a particular
facility. If the facility's voltage is 117.0 VA C or lower, the
114.0 VA C (yellow) transformer input tap must be used.
If the facility's voltage is between 117.1 to 123.0 VAC,
the 120.0 VAC (orange) transformer input tap must be
used. If the facility's voltage is 123.1 VAC or higher, the
126.0 VAC (red) transformer input tap must be used.
Using the correct transf ormer input tap will result in a
transformer output of 12.27 +/- 0.37 VAC.
When the ON / STANDBY switch is switched to ON, the
output voltage from the transformer secondary tap is
applied across the bulb assembly causing the bulb to
illuminate. Turning the ON / STANDBY switch to
STANDBY opens the circuit, causing the bulb to stop
illuminating. However, power is still applied to the primary side of the transformer.
C. Model 355 (-012 thru -015) Theory of Operation
(See Figure 5-2 for wiring diagram / electrical
schematic)
Line voltage is supplied thru the line fuse (F1) to the
transformer. If to o m uch c ur rent is dr a wn by the lighting
system's circuitry, the line fuse (F1) blows. The trans-
former will provide 12.27 +/- 0.37 VAC output to power
the light circuit based on an ideal 220.0 VA C input.
Because there are facilities which cannot supply the
ideal level of input voltage, the transformer has three
primary input taps which can be used, based on the
voltage level available at a particular facility. If the facility’s voltage is 225 VAC or lower, the 220 VAC (yellow)
transformer input tap must be used. If the facility’s voltage is between 225.1 and 235.0 VAC, the 230 VAC
(orange) transformer input tap must be used. If the
facility’s v oltage is 235.1 VAC or higher, the 240 VAC
(red) transformer input tap must be used. Using the
correct transformer input tap will result in a transformer
output of 12.27 +/- 0.37 VAC.

The illustrated parts list provides information for identifying and ordering the parts necessary to maintain the
unit in peak operating condition. Refer to paragraph 1.5
for parts ordering information.
6.2Description of Columns
The Item column of the parts list gives a component its
own unique number. The same number is given to the
component in the parts illustration. This allows a part
number of a component to be found if the technician
can visually spot the part on the illustration. The technician simply finds the component in question on the illustration and notes the item number of that component.
Then, he finds that item number in the parts list. The
row corresponding to the item number gives the technician the part number, a description of the component,
and quantity of parts per subassembly. Also, if a part
number is known, the location of that component can be
determined by looking for the item number of the component on the illustration.
The Part No. column lists the MIDMARK part number
for that component.
The Description column provides a physical description
of the component.
The Qty . column lists the number of units of a particular
component that is required for the subassembly. The
letters “AR” denote “as required” when quantities of a
particular component cannot be determined, such as:
adhesive.
Bullets { • } in the Part No. column and the Description
column show the indenture level of a component. If a
component does not hav e a bullet, it is a main component of that illustration. If a component has a bullet, it is
a subcomponent of the next component listed higher in
the parts list than itself that does not have a bullet. Likewise, if a component has two bullets, it is a subcomponent of the next component listed higher in the parts list
than itself that has only one bullet.
6.3Torque Specifications and Important
Assembly Notes
When specific assembly torque specifications, measurements, or procedures have been identified, by our
engineering department, as required to assure proper
function of the unit, those torque specifications measurements, and procedures will be noted on the parts
illustrations. Adherence to these requirements is essential.
The Technical Publications Department of Midmark
Corporation takes pride in its publications. We are sure
that our manuals will fill all of your needs when you are
performing scheduled maintenance, servicing, or
repairs on a Midmark product.
