2.1 Safety Precautions
2.1.1
CAUTION: Dangerous Ultraviolet Radiation
2.1.1.1 Ultraviolet transilluminators are a powerful source of dangerous ultraviolet
radiation. It is VERY IMPORTANT to protect your eyes and skin from exposure.
2.1.1.2 The UV blocking shield blocks some of the dangerous ultraviolet radiation from
exiting the UV transilluminator, but under no circumstances should the
unprotected eyes or skin be exposed to the radiation. Ultra-Lum UV blocking
covers, UV blocking shields, UV blocking glasses, UV blocking goggles, and UV
blocking full face shields are available which when used in conjunction with long
sleeve shirts or lab coats and gloves should provide adequate protection and
allow safe handling of ultraviolet products without adverse effects. Ensure that
all personnel in the area who are using or observing this equipment are
adequately protected.
2.1.1.3 DO NOT attempt to use an ultraviolet transilluminator without the UV blocking
shield, as this will cause undesired exposure to dangerous Ultraviolet radiation.
2.1.1.4 Refer to accessories section 2.6 for recommended ultra-violet safety equipment.
2.1.2
CAUTION: Electrical Exposure
2.1.2.1 Do not attempt to operate the transilluminator with the filter enclosure cover
removed as this will expose the user to the HIGH VOLTAGE lamp power supply
output circuitry as well as the HIGH VOLTAGE AC main’s circuitry.

plugged into the AC wall receptacle. If the AC line cord is plugged in, there may
