3.4 IR Drying System Overview Chapter 3 Adjustments and Maintenance The IR Drying Assembly is a source of high intensity light in the short to medium infrared spectrum. The IR lamp transfers its energy to the stock in the form of heat. The increased temperature causes the ink to set at a faster rate than normal. The Intensity control provides IR lamp intensities, enabling the operator to compensate for such variables as imaging speed, paper stock, ink coverage, ink color etc. The effectiveness of the infrared drying will vary from job to job based on these variables. Safety Precautions Note the label on the lamp housing. Do not drop flammable liquids on a hot lamp housing. Do not jar or vibrate the IR lamp housing while the IR lamps are still hot. Do not operate the IR lamps unless they are in a horizontal position. When the IR lamps turn off, allow the cooling fans to operate for at least 5 minutes before turning the power switch off. Adjust the height of the IR lamp to maintain a minimum of 2 inches above the stock passing underneath. 21

Chapter 3 Adjustments and Maintenance Infrared Lamp Replacement CAUTION: Read and follow these instructions carefully. Failure to do so will result in premature failure of the IR lamp, damage to the control box, and create a shock and burn hazard that may result in personal injury. ** Please Note: Use care NOT to touch the replacement bulbs with bare hands. The natural oils from your skin WILL shorten the usable life of the bulbs. Lamp Replacement procedure Unplug the (3) connectors for the Heat Lamp Head from the rear panel of the Dryer Base. Remove the bolts that secure the Dryer Lamp Assembly to the support cross bar and carefully remove the lamp assembly from the base. Support Cross Bar Remove bolts 22

Chapter 3 Adjustments and Maintenance Set the Lamp head on a clean, flat work surface. Remove the (4) Philips head screws located on both sides of the cooling fans (2 per side). Remove 2 Screws Remove 2 Screws Carefully turn the lamp head over so that the bulbs are facing you. Grab the aluminum lamp housing (to the outside of the ceramic lamp sockets) and gently pull the entire lamp housing from the frame. With the lamp head cords to your right, roll the lamp housing towards you exposing the lamp wiring. Locate and disconnect the (4) quick connect lamp wires by spreading the locking clips outward while pulling the wires away from each other. Carefully guide the disconnected wires through the holes in the lamp housing so that the wires are on the same side of the housing as the bulbs. 23

Chapter 3 Adjustments and Maintenance Remove the (4) Philips head screws from (1) end of the lamp housing, releasing the ceramic lamp holders. Remove 4 Screws Remove the U-shaped aluminum lamp holders from the end of the fixture. This will loosen the bulbs and allow them to be slid off the opposite side bulb holders. Replace the bulbs with the new set, again being careful not to expose them to direct contact with your skin. Note: The ceramic insulators must be removed and reused with your new lamps. Reassemble the fixture in the reverse order that is described above. Be careful to make sure that no wires are pinched during this assembly. Place repaired Lamp head back onto the Dryer Base. Plug in the (3) connectors and the Dryer Base should be ready for use. 24

Chapter 3 Adjustments and Maintenance Preventive Maintenance Do not allow lubricants or solvents to drip onto the IR lamp housing If any substance (including fingerprints) should come in contact with the glass infrared lamp, carefully wipe the lamp WHEN IT IS COLD, with a lint free cloth and isopropyl alcohol NOTE: Fingerprints on the IR lamp WILL decrease the lamp life. Periodically clean the IR lamp WHEN IT IS COLD, and the parabolic reflector to remove any dust or materials, which may collect over time. Always use a lint free cloth and isopropyl alcohol. NOTE: To increase lamp and drive belt life, on initial setup set the IR intensity adjuster to between 50 and 60% capacity.
