Model 6040 Dry IR Drying System Instruction Manual
Section 3 - Installation
CAUTION!
• Please read the installation instructions carefully. It is important that the Model
6040 is installed correctly or important safety features will not be operational.
Tools Required
1. Phillips screwdriver
2. Straight blade screwdriver
Mechanical Installation
There are 4 - 5mm (10-32) mounting holes on each end of the heater for mounting the unit. See
Appendix A for dimensions.
Installing Lamps
CAUTION!
• Wear soft, clean, oil-free flannel or plastic gloves when handling quartz lamps. If
skin oils come in contact with the quartz tube, the lamp will fail prematurely.
When installing lamps in the heater module it is important to avoid touching the quartz glass lamp tubes.
Fingerprints and dirt marks on the tube will absorb more heat and may shorten lamp life. If a lamp does get touched
or dirty, clean it with a soft tissue or cloth before using the system.
CAUTION!
• Before installing or changing lamps, disconnect all power cords to the system.
To install or change the lamps:
1. With a Phillips screwdriver, remove the screws that fasten the front cover of the heater
module. Remove cover.
2. Loosen the 4 screws that hold the reflector in place and slide the air deflectors off.
3. Insert the lamp lead wires through the reflector and snap the lamp into the spring clips
provided (Figure 3-1). If the lamp clips are excessively tight, gently spread the clip
wider. Make sure that the lamp is held securely in the clip.
CAUTION!
• It is important that the lead between the lamp and barrier strip not be pulled tight
when the lamp is installed. As the heater module and lamps heat and cool, they
are also expanding and contracting which may damage the lamp if the lead is too
tight.
