1 Notes on Safety

1.1 General

Please make yourself familiar with the contents

of these operating instructions before attaching

and starting up the HBO 100 Microscope

Illuminating System. Additional information is

available from our maintenance service or from

authorized agencies.

The HBO 100 Microscope Illuminating System

should be used with Zeiss microscopes

exclusively.

The HBO 100 Microscope Illuminating System

may only be handled by trained personnel.

To ensure that the illuminating system functions

properly with the microscope, the appropriate

microscope manual must be observed.

In addition, observe the manual

"HBO 100 – Electronic ballast“.

Special regard must be paid to the notes on

instrument safety included in this manual.

The data sheets from the lamp manufacturers

must be observed when the HBO 103 lamps are

operated.

To guarantee the safe operation and function

of the HBO 100 Microscope Illuminating

System, it is necessary under any circumstances

to take the precautions and observe the

warnings contained in the operating

instructions.

The following warning and information symbols

are used in this manual:

CAUTION!

Non-observance of the safety notes constitutes

a hazard for the user.

CAUTION!

Dangerous electrical voltage.

CAUTION!

Disconnect the instrument from the line before

opening it!

CAUTION!

Hot surface.

CAUTION!

Non-observance of the safety notes constitutes

the risk of damage to the instrument.

NOTE!

Notes which must be observed when using the

HBO 100 Microscope Illuminating System.

1.2 Regulations concerning

Instrument Safety and

Electromagnetic

Compatibility (EMC)

The HBO 100 Microscope Illuminating System

has been designed, produced and tested in

compliance with EN 61010, Part 1 (VDE 0411).

It was delivered in a technically safe and perfect

state.

The illuminating system meets the requirements

of EC directives 73/23 and 89/336 and the EMC

legislation, as amended on September 18,

1998.

Radio-noise suppression complies with

EN 55011, Class B, noise immunity with

EN 61326.

Compliance with the EC directives mentioned is

documented by the CE certificate.

Microscope Illuminating System Safety

HBO 100 Unpacking, Use Carl Zeiss

B 46-0063 e 03/06 5

1.3 Notes on Unpacking,

Transport and Storage

The lamps may be removed from the package

only if the protection mask (Cat. No. 417009)

and the safety gloves with artery protection

(Cat. No. 417008) are worn.

For safety reasons, a safety holder is inserted in

the microscope illuminator instead of the bulb

during transport.

Both the HBO 100 microscope illuminator and

the HBO 103 lamp must be transported in their

original packaging.

This packaging must be kept for storage and

disposal.

The transport and storage temperatures to be

observed correspond to those of the microscope

stands.

1.4 Hints on Use

− When they are hot, the lamps are under high

internal pressure.

They may only be inserted in the microscope

illuminator if a safety mask and safety gloves

(see chapter 1.3) are worn.

− The HBO 103 lamps are under high pressure

during operation; they must always be

operated in closed lamp housings!

− The light of the HBO 103 short-arc lamps

contains a high amount of UV light:

ÎNever look directly into the lamp or in

reflected light

ÎWear safety glasses (sunglasses) when

operating the lamps

ÎCover inspection openings with filters

− The UV radiation of the lamps produces little

quantities of harmful ozone.

Take care to ventilate the working room with

fresh air.

− Both the HBO 100 microscope illuminator

and the HBO 103 lamps must be protected

from impact and humidity. Always keep the

ventilation slats clear and ensure that no

objects enter the instrument through the

ventilation slats.

− If the lamp bulb has broken, observe the

information provided by the lamp

manufacturer.

Instead of the HBO 103 lamp, its predecessor

HBO 100 can also be used.

1.5 Hints on Maintenance and

Care

To ensure perfect function of the microscope

illuminating system, it is necessary to use only

components and spares marketed or approved

by us. When in doubt, please contact our

service staff.

With the exception of the work described in this

manual, the user must not perform any repairs

or changes himself.

We would like to emphasize that all other

changes and repairs must be performed by

specially authorized personnel.

Defective instruments or components may only

be repaired and maintained by our service

department.

− After expiry of the average operating time

(see data sheets from the lamp

manufacturers), the lamps must be

exchanged to avoid the risk of explosion!

The operating time of the HBO 103 can be

checked on the display of operating hour

meter of the relevant transformer.

(Fig. 6)

With increasing service life, dirt will deposit

on the lamp bulb so that homogeneous

illumination of the object field is no longer

ensured.

− The lamps must be exchanged as described

in chapter 3.1.

− Before each lamp exchange, make sure to

allow the HBO 100microscope illuminator to

cool down sufficiently long in order to

reduce the pressure; wait at least for 15

minutes!

− Always disconnect the instrument from the

line before each lamp exchange or any other

work inside the instrument.

− Clean the housing of the microscope

illuminator when it is dirty.

Do not use any solvents.

Soak a cleaning cloth in a mixture of water

and washing-up liquid, remove the dirt and

dry the housing using a clean cloth.

1.6 Advice on lamp breakage

If the HBO lamps have reached their rated

lifetime or their bulbs show advanced

blackening, they should be replaced because of

the increasing risk of explosion.

If lamps are operated properly, lamp explosion

is very unlikely.

For the rare case, that an HBO lamp bursts and

the mercury (Hg) contained in the bulb is

released, we recommend to follow this

procedure:

− First of all, the persons being nearby should

instantly leave the place to avoid inhaling

mercury vapor.

− Air the laboratory thoroughly (for approx.

30 minutes)!

− Every lamp housing of a higher-power lamp

should be equipped with an individual

exhaust device that is not connected to the

domestic air-conditioning system to avoid

that mercury vapor enters this system.

− Once the lamp housing has cooled down,

collect any mercury residues precipitated

inside the lamp housing by using an

adsorbent available from a chemicals

supplier.

HBO 100 Disposal, Warranty Carl Zeiss

B 46-0063 e 03/06 7

1.7 Hints on Disposal

Used HBO 103 lamps and defective microscope

illuminators should not be treated like domestic

waste; they should be disposed of in their

original packaging in accordance with the legal

regulations.

When in doubt, please contact the Carl Zeiss

microscopy service.

1.8 Hints on Warranty

The instrument manufacturer is not liable for

damage caused by unauthorized operation,

particularly the removal and exchange of

components, or the use of accessories from

other manufacturers. This forfeits all the claims

against warranty.
