3.0 Operating Suggestions
3.1 Lamp Intensity
It is known within the industry that deuterium lamps exhibit reduced
intensity as they age during their normal service life. It is
recommended that a diagnostic test, showing PDA intensity levels,
be run on the lamp at installation, then regularly during the lamp’s
service life. It is also recommended that the lamp be replaced at
50% of original intensity.
3.2 Installation and Transportation
The lamp is sensitive to physical shock such as being dropped.
It is recommended that you avoid shock when installing or
transporting the lamp. If it is suspected that a lamp has been
subjected to excessive shock, it is recommended that a diagnostic
PDA Intensity Test be run to verify that intensity is acceptable.
An acceptable PDA Intensity Test will not, however, guarantee
that no damage occurred.
3.3 Fingerprints
Fingerprints on the glass envelope affect the lamp’s performance.
It is highly recommended that the lamp’s envelope not be
touched unless wearing gloves. If there is any chance that there
are fingerprints on the lamp’s envelope, wipe the envelope with
methanol using a lint-free tissue and allow to dry prior to installation.
3.4 Flow Cells
Figure 1
It is important to clean the flow cell regularly. If the flow cell is
not clean, the amount of light passing through the flow cell may
be insufficient and could affect the light intensity. If after replacing
a lamp the detector performs poorly, it is recommended
that you check to make sure that the flow cell is clean and leak
free.

4.0 Warranty
CTS guarantees the lifetime of this product for 2000 hours or
one year from purchase date whichever comes first. The guaranteed
lifetime is defined as the time in which the radiant
power of the lamp has dropped to 50% of its initial value measured
at 230nm and 300mA operating current. CTS also warrants
the product to be free of defects in materials and workmanship
and will replace, without cost, the product which carries
such defects. Please call 1-800-682-6480 for a Return
Authorization Number before sending your return to CTS.

handling the lamp.
c. Access the lamp inside detector housing.
d. Disconnect the lamp power connector.
e. Unscrew the two mounting screws.
f. Grip the metal base and pull the lamp out.
g. Remove the mounting screws from the old lamp.
h. Carefully unpack and hold the replacement lamp by
its base only.
i. Orient the lamp so the two holes in the base align with
the mounting pins and screws in the optics bench.
j. Insert the lamp and secure it with the two mounting
screws.
k. Reconnect the lamp power connector.
j. Close detector housing.
l. Reconnect the power cord and power up PDA
detector.
m. Record initial lamp intensity in the instrument log.
