GE Sievers 900 Series Operation And Maintenance Manual page 177

The UV lamp contains mercury and may be considered hazardous material in your
local area. Dispose of the UV lamp in accordance with federal, state, or local
government regulations.
Installation of the UV lamp requires access to the inside of the
Analyzer. To avoid potentially dangerous shock, disconnect the power
cord before opening the Analyzer's front panel.
Should the UV lamp become broken or damaged, it should be handled in
accordance with your organization's toxic waste handling procedure and disposed
of in accordance with federal, state, or local government regulations.
Note: A cotton glove to be worn during the installation is included with the replacement UV
lamp to avoid leaving fingerprints on the quartz window of the lamp. Fingerprints
absorb UV radiation and decrease the performance of the oxidation reactor. If
necessary, use methanol to remove any fingerprints before installing the new lamp.
To replace the UV lamp:
1. If the Analyzer is taking measurements, press the Stop Analysis button.
2. Turn off the Analyzer by using the main power switch.
3. Open the Analyzer front panel by turning the two latches and swinging the panel door to
the left.
4. Locate the UV lamp enclosure at the right of the Analyzer. The UV enclosure has a brass
nut at the bottom of the enclosure and a gray wire with a black connector extending from
the nut.
