ELSV-60 Light Source 3
Warning and Precautions
DIRECT VIEWING OF EXITING LIGHT CAN BE HARMFUL!
The light at the front of the light source and at the tip of a connected
fiber-optic bundle is of high intensity and can result in very high temperatures.
To minimize the risk of injury, avoid direct viewing of the light or contact with
surrounding surfaces. Light includes UV wavelengths which may cause skin
or eye irritation from direct exposures exceeding 15 min./day.
TO PREVENT TEMPORARY BLINDING
and contact with heated parts, always plug the fiber optic bundle into the
light source before turning the power on.
ALWAYS PROVIDE ADEQUATE VENTILATION
to prevent overheating. Do not cover the light source or place the unit
within 7.62 cm (3 in.) of a solid object.
DURING OPERATION, THE LAMP SHOULD BE ENCLOSED
in the light source to prevent injury in the occasional circumstance of the
lamp shattering.
USE CAUTION WHEN REPLACING LAMP.
Allow lamp to cool. Use only GE Inspection Technologies replacement
lamp #SPL-600. For optimum performance, avoid handling the bulb or reflector. Fingerprints or other contaminants on the glass may result in performance degradation.
DO NOT SWITCH THE LIGHT SOURCE ON AND OFF IN RAPID
SUCCESSION. Doing so will dramatically shorten lamp life. After turning
off, wait 15 seconds before turning on again.
The supplied detachable power cord is the means of disconnect from the
power source.

AVERTISSEMENTS ET PRECAUTIONS
L’intensité lumineuse du générateur de lumière et à l’extrémité du guide de
lumière, induit unc température élevée et une forte luminosité. Pour minimiser les risques de blessures, éviter tout contact direct avec les yeux et la
peau.
Afin d’empêcher un aveuglement temporaire et toute brûlure, ilest recommandé de connecter le guide de lumière au générateur avant la mise en
marche de ce dernier.
Ne pas allumer et éteindre le générateur de lumière successivement. Ceci
réduirait considérablement la durée de vie de la lampe. Après l’avoir éteint
patienter 10 à 15 seconds avant de le remettre en marche.
ATTENTION:
utiliser une ventilation adéquate pour éviter toute surchauffe du générateur.
Si vous le sortez de sa sacoche : ne pas l’envelopper dans un tissu et ne pas
le placer à moins de 8 cm de tout objet.
PRECAUTIONS:
à prendre lors du remplacement de la lampe : laisser la lampe refroidir.
Utiliser la lampe GE Inspection Technologies Réf: #SPL-600.

ELSV-60 Light Source 5
System Description
The ELSV-60 Hi-Lux Light Source provides high quality, white light for industrial borescope and fiberscope inspections. It incorporates a patented and
field-proven lamp technology that has much greater efficiency than halogen
or xenon lamps when transferring light into a small fiber bundle, such as that
found in borescopes and fiberscopes. This greater efficiency allows the lamp
to run at only 60W, which then enables a small and lightweight light source
design. The high efficiency also enables the light source to provide high intensity light without getting very hot, which is an advantage in user safety.
Video inspections are also easy with the ELSV-60. A special video channel
makes setup and operation with our BCAM 1000 C-Mount Camera simple. A
single cable connection provides power to the camera and carries the video
signal from the camera back to the light source. Video outputs carry the
signal to a monitor or other video peripheral devices for image display and/
or recording.
