Start Up Procedure; Light Intensity Setting - SCHOTT KL 1500 HAL Conseils D'utilisation

KL 1500 HAL / KL 1500 H - Operating instructions

2.3 Start up procedure

Switch on/off the KL 1500 HAL by pressing the on/off switch (1).
The indicator on the LCD display (5) is lit when the instrument is switched on.
Position O: The instrument is switched off. Please disconnect the power by pulling out the power
plug!
To protect the halogen lamp the KL 1500 HAL is fitted with a gentle start up device that reduces the
high switch on current that would otherwise occur.

2.4 Light intensity setting

The brightness can be adjusted continuously by turning the light intensity setting rotary
dial (4).
The set brightness is indicated on the LCD display (5) in 1% increments between 0 and 100%. You
can have the light intensity displayed as the equivalent colour temperature [Kelvin] at the light guide
exit by means of a single press on the brightness control (4). Please note that this indicator is not an
exact physical quantity and therefore, subject to a certain level of inaccuracy! It is merely intended
as an approximate value! Neither fluctuations caused by manufacturing tolerances of the lamp nor
any ageing processes are taken into account!
The greatest light intensity is reached when the rotary dial is turned all the way to the 100% position
(3400K). The average lifetime of the lamp is approximately 50 h (as specified by the manufacturer of
the lamp).
The brightness of the KL 1500 HAL can be regulated across 3 different segments and is indicated
accordingly on the LCD display (5). These ranges can be used as an indicator for the application
specific brightness and thus for the lifetime of the lamp:
ECO 0 - 49%
STANDARD 50 - 79%
BOOST 80 - 100%
