Lamp Installation - Strong Lighting SUPER TROUPER III Instruction Manual

CAUTION: OBSERVE ALL SAFETY PROCEDURES. Put on protective face mask. Wear clean cotton
gloves to prevent marking the quartz envelope of the bulb with fingerprints. Turn the circuit breaker on the
side of the xenon power supply cabinet OFF.
DISMOUNT THE LAMPHOUSE ACCESS COVER by removing the two phillips head
screws and lockwashers; (1) at the rear bulkhead and (1) at the front bulkhead. Open the key lock after first
removing the hex head security screw. Do not misplace the security screw.
THE SUPER TROUPER III SYSTEM is shipped from the factory with a compatible xenon
power supply. The desired lamp wattage and desired input voltage of the spotlight system shipped is
specified by the customer when placing the original equipment order. Four wattages are available: 1600,
2000, 2500 or 3000 watt. Lamps approved for use in the Super Trouper III include:
Wattage
XBO1600W/HS OFR
1600
XBO2000W/HS OFR
2000
XBO2500W/HS XL OFR
2500
XBO3000W/HS XL OFR
3000
THE ABOVE XENON LAMPS are designated OZONE FREE, and replacement lamps
other than the above must be certified by their manufacturer as being 100% interchangeable. The warranty
on the xenon bulb supplied is administered by the lamp manufacturer and is separate from the spotlight
warranty issued by Strong Lighting. Retain the warranty documentation packed with the xenon lamp.
WHEN ORDERED for 1600 watt operation, the adapters required to install these smaller bulbs
in the Super Trouper III lamphouse are supplied in the accessory kit. The front bulb support in the 1600 watt
lamphouses is a cast yoke (65117000) which holds the stem of the cathode adapter. A retainer plate
(65151000) and two thumb screws (65152000) clamp the stem of the cathode adapter into the yoke.
THE 2000/2500/3000 WATT type "HS" lamp mounts into the lamphouse without
adapters. The front lamp support for these lamps (83747000) is a cushioned ring which encircles the
cathode (-) end cap of the bulb. The negative contact (24269000) clamps either on the end of the
1000/1600 watt cathode adapter (as shown on following page) or
the .312" (8mm) cathode pin of the 2000/2500/3000 "HS" lamp. A trigger wire, encircling the lamp
envelope and attached to the end cap (as illustrated on the facing page), must be present.
IF IT IS DECIDED subsequent to the initial installation to change lamp wattages, it is
necessary to verify that the original xenon power supply will operate the replacement lamp throughout its
range. The older 115 volt power supply is not recommended for use with a 2000 watt lamp, and should be
replaced with a 220 volt, Type 62- or B3 unit. Make certain that the correct front lamp support is
installed; 65117000 Yoke for 1600 watt, or 83747000 Ring Support for 2000 or higher watt lamp.
The rear lamp support collet (24266000) accommodates either the anode pin of the 2000/2500/3000
watt "HS" lamp or the stem of the anode adapter.
