ultraviolet light sources are in operation.  Even when a monochromator output 
is set to “non-ultraviolet” wavelengths, the output may contain “second order” 
or stray ultraviolet radiation. 

 

4.  Ozone Hazard:  All xenon lamps, other than ozone free lamps, allow ozone 

gas to be generated while the lamp is in operation.  Always provide for proper 
ventilation to remove this ozone.  High concentrations of ozone are dangerous 
and can constitute a serious health hazard! 

 

5.  Other:  Read manufacturers “Instructions for use of Xenon XBO”, attached, 

before attempting to install or operate this lamp. 

 
Mounting: 
For proper operation, the lamp housing must always be mounted to the entrance slit 
of the spectrometer and the lamp housing cover must always be in place. 
 
To mount the lamp housing to the entrance slit, use the following procedure: 
 

A1. Locate the two (2) shoulder screws and the two (2) 8-32 cap screws supplied 

with the XS-432.  Insert the shoulder screws into the two bottom outside 
tapped holes of the entrance slit of the spectrometer and tighten.  These are 
used to mount the lamp housing. 

 

A2. Remove the four (4) slotted screws from the top of the lamp housing, then 

remove the cover. 

 
Caution: Do not touch the surface of the focusing mirror. 
 
A3. Carefully slide the two (2) “key hole” type slots of the lamp housing 

mounting flange over the should screws in the entrance slit of the 
spectrometer.  Insure that the top two holes of the lamp housing mounting 
flange align properly with the top tow tapped holes of the spectrometer 
entrance slit. 

A4. Insert the two (2) 8-23 cap screws in the top tow holes of the lamp housing 

mounting flange and tighten.
