Transilluminator Operation
Safety Precautions
Caution: The FirstLight UV illuminators are powerful sources of UV radiation that will cause
damage to unprotected eyes and skin. Before operating any unit, ensure all personnel in the area
are properly protected. It is preferable that the illuminator be installed and operated in a darkroom
where access and exposure is limited while the unit is in operation. If a darkroom is unavailable,
UVP offers imaging darkroom systems which provide protection from accidental exposure. For
information on the systems, contact UVP.
Unless configured with another system to create a darkroom environment, the illuminator is
equipped with a UV blocking cover. Even though this cover blocks the ultraviolet radiation emitted
by the unit, UV blocking eyewear should be worn as well. UVP has a complete line of UV blocking
eyewear: spectacles, goggles, and faceshields designed for this purpose. For part numbers, see
the Accessories section.
Caution: The grid lamp contains Mercury. Dispose as hazardous waste according to local, state,
and federal codes. MSDS sheet available upon request.
