Chromato-Vue Cabinets
Introduction
The UVP Chromato-Vue Viewing Cabinets provide a wide range of cabinet models and ultraviolet wavelength configurations for use in laboratory or industrial applications. This Operations Manual covers the following cabinet models: C-65, C-75, C-70G and C-71. These cabinets are designed for long life and rugged use in a wide range of applications. The bottom panel of each cabinet is removable and the cabinet can be placed over samples or a transilluminator. The lightweight access curtain allows for easy entry and blocks out external light. All cabinets are manufactured of durable lightweight plastic. The view port combines a comfortable soft rubber, which can accommodate eyeglasses, and a contrast control filter, which blocks the ultraviolet radiation.
The C-65 comes with a built-in white light. Ultraviolet lamps for use with this cabinet are purchased separately. Other models mentioned above are fitted with ultraviolet light sources. Further information is provided below on each model.
Operating Instructions
Materials shipped may include the following products wrapped individually: cabinet, eyepiece, bottom panel, and contrast control filter. To remove shipping material from inside of cabinet, raise curtain by the lever on side of cabinet. Unwrap bottom panel and insert into cabinet. The rolled edge of the panel should face down in front. Place unwrapped contrast control filter into the open area on cabinet top. The unwrapped eyepiece should be placed over the rim of the cabinet opening so that the nose notch faces forward.
Plug the power cord of the cabinet into a convenient wall receptacle. Cabinet is now ready for viewing. is located at the top right of cabinet. Use the rocker switch for illumination control. If a transilluminator is to be used with your Chromato-Vue Cabinet, remove the bottom panel from inside the cabinet and then place the cabinet over the transilluminator.
Warning: Because of the potential ultraviolet radiation hazard inherent from the shortwave ultraviolet models, please read Safety Precautions before using this equipment.

Features and Specifications
C-65 Chromato-Vue Cabinet
The C-65 Cabinet provides a built-in overhead white light. The ultraviolet light source is provided by the EL Series Ultraviolet Lamps. Using two lamps gives even illumination from two sides of the cabinet. Each lamp utilizes 8-watt dual bipin tubes. The lamp is plugged into the service outlet located on top of the cabinet and the lamp is placed over the cabinet opening with the filter glass facing into the cabinet. A rocker switch is located on the back of the lamp for lamp operation. The cabinet master ON/OFF rocker switch must be ON to operate the white light and service outlets. See Accessories for optional equipment for use with the C-65.

Replacement of Filters
To replace the filter glass on C-70G and C-71 Cabinets, you will need a single edge razor blade. The following steps should be used as a guideline for replacing the filter glass in your Chromato-Vue Cabinet: Remove bottom plate from the cabinet and set aside. Next, turn the cabinet upside down and place it on a clean, flat surface. Remove the four (4) screws

from the filter cover and remove from the cabinet. Place the cover upside down on a clean, soft surface. Use a single edge razor blade to cut the RTV sealant around the filter. Remove the filter from the cover. Before installing the new filter, remove the remaining RTV sealant from the cover. Place the new filter in the cover, making sure it is centered over the cover cut-out. NOTE: Select the smoothest side of the filter and place that side face down in the cover. Next, apply the RTV sealant, supplied with the filter, around all edges of the filter, making sure the filter does not move in the cover. Allow about 8-10 hours for curing. Replace the cover in cabinet so that the longer filter is toward the cabinet front.
NOTE: The Chromato-Vue Cabinet should be turned off when not in use. This will insure longer life of the tubes and continued high-intensity of the lamps.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNING
Do not expose eyes and skin to shortwave ultraviolet radiation
as these rays are harmful to unprotected eyes and skin
The above warning information is affixed to the top surface of the cabinets and lamps containing shortwave ultraviolet tubes. If it is removed or obscured, replace it by ordering a Warning Label (P/N 80-0068-01) from UVP or an authorized distributor.
The cabinet is designed to minimize UV radiation hazards to personnel. The special viewing filter blocks the passage of harmful UV rays that could cause eye damage. The lamps, cabinet and curtains have been designed for a light tight environment. If the integrity of these parts is maintained, no special precautions are required.
In cases where the lamp is to be operated independently of the cabinet, protective goggles may prove useful. See Accessories section for protective eyewear.
If any questions exist as to the intensity of ultraviolet radiation, it may be measured by the ultraviolet meters described in the Accessories section.
For further information of UV exposure hazards, recommended reference is: Threshold Limit Values for Chemical Substances and Physical Agents in the Workroom.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
These cabinets are powerful sources of ultraviolet radiation which can cause serious damage to the unprotected eyes and skin. Before performing any maintenance on the unit, requiring operation of the tubes, be sure all personnel in the area are adequately protected. See Safety Precautions above.
Filter Care
The lamp filter glass may be cleaned with mild solvents or warm (not hot) water on a soft cloth. To remove grease, add a small amount of mild detergent to the water. The filter material has a slight tendency to absorb water which (depending on the chemicals dissolved into the water) can have an adverse effect on its transmission. After cleaning or observing wet items, dry the top surface with a soft cloth.
Troubleshooting
If lamps or white light (if applicable) fail to operate:
1. Check to see that the power is still present at the socket and that the Master ON/OFF switch is ON.
2. Warning: Shock Hazard - disconnect the unit before performing this step. Remove the Master ON/OFF switch cover. A fuse holder will now be exposed. Rotate the cap and withdraw the fuse. If the fusible element has been broken, check the circuitry for shorts. Replace the fuse.
3. If a single tube fails to light, place a known good tube in its position. If the tube lights, the original tube is faulty and needs replacing. If the good tube doesn’t light, see step 4.

Chromato-Vue Cabinets
4. Check the circuitry for open circuit conditions (see C-65 Schematic for the wiring diagram). Correct any deviating conditions.
5. If the lamp still will not light, replace the ultraviolet tube or white light as appropriate.
