Operating Instructions
Operating the Lamp
The following sections provide instructions on operating the Deuterium and Halogen lamps in the DH-
2000. The Halogen lamp is only available in the DH-2000, DH-2000-DUV, and DH-2000-BAL models.
Caution
The unit must operate in a horizontal position.
Starting the Lamp
Press the Deuterium or Halogen On/Off switch down to preheat the desired lamp. The LED blinks green
until the lamp illuminates (approximately 20 seconds). The bulb requires a 20-second preheating period.
You must allow this warm up period in order to receive accurate data. After the warm up period, the lamp
will light.
After successful illumination, the two-color LED beneath the lamp’s On/Off switch lights up green to
indicate that the lamp is on. Should the lamp fail to light, the two-color LED lights up red. This indicates
a malfunction of the lamp. Press the On/Off switch again to reset the lamp. See
information.
Protective eyewear must be worn when using this equipment - Intense ultraviolet radiation
present.
WARNING
Never look directly into the light beam, as this can cause eye damage.
Troubleshooting for more
Turning the Lamp Off
Turn the lamp off by pressing the appropriate On/Off switch.
000-10000-025-02-120911
Page 20
3: Operating Instructions
Warming Up the Lamp
The Deuterium lamp requires 10–15 minutes, while the Tungsten-Halogen lamp requires 5–10 minutes of
operation to reach a state of thermal equilibrium. During this warm-up period, the intensity of the UV
output power can vary substantially.
If applications require extreme intensity stability, the Halogen lamp should be warmed up for an
additional 15 minutes. Once warmed up for this amount of time, the lamp will reach specified drift values.

Troubleshooting
Deuterium Lamp
If the power supply or Deuterium lamp does not seem to functioning properly, check the following:
IssueProbable CauseResolution
Power switches on, but no
LEDs light.
Deuterium lamp does not light.
The two-color LED under the
Deuterium On/Off switch lights
up red, indicating an error.
Deuterium lamp turns off
during operation.
Line power not presentCheck line voltage
Fuse defectiveCheck fuse
Allow the Deuterium lamp to cool
down (20 minutes).
Deuterium lamp too hot
Deuterium lamp life exhaustedReplace Deuterium lamp
Deuterium lamp’s internal
connection plug is not closed
correctly.
Deuterium lamp too hot
Press On/Off switch again to
reset the Deuterium TungstenHalogen lamp, then press again
to restart.
Open unit (see the
and close connector plug.
Turn off the unit.
Allow the unit to cool down for at
least 20 minutes.
Once the unit has cooled down,
turn the Deuterium lamp back on.

Appendix A
Maintenance
Overview
Maintenance of your DH-2000 unit involves periodic replacing the light source bulbs, when necessary.
DH2000 units produced before 2003 CANNOT be repaired or have the bulbs replaced. The bulbs for a
DH2000 unit manufactured before 2003 are no longer available. See the figure beow to determine which
unit you have before ordering new bulbs or requesting an RMA:
Rear panel of Repairable DH2000
(manufactured after 2003)
Rear panel of Nonrepairable DH2000
(manufactured before 2003)
Bulb Replacement
You can manually change the Deuterium and Halogen bulbs in the DH-2000. To order replacement bulbs
for the DH-2000, order the following item number(s):
Deuterium Spare Bulb (210 – 400 nm): D-2000-B
Deuterium Spare Bulb Deep UV (190 – 400 nm): D-2000-B-DUV

A: Maintenance
Halogen Spare Bulb (300 – 1500 nm): DH-2000-B
WARNING
Before replacing the bulb in the DH-2000, disconnect the lamp from your power
source and allow the unit to cool for at least twenty minutes, if necessary.
Do not touch the lamp glass directly, as contact with bare fingers will reduce the
lifetime of the bulb.
