Product Bulletin UV-Curing Spot Lamp with Patented Intensity Adjustment The Process Control You Need Without the Added Cost! ® The BlueWave 75 UV-curing spot lamp offers high-intensity and user-friendly operation for any light-based curing application. The patented intensity adjustment feature provides user control of light intensity to assist users in process validation and control. Intensity measurement is easily accomplished with the Dymax ACCU-CAL™ 50 radiometer. Scheduled intensity measurements taken during the production process will indicate whether additional intensity adjustments are required. This method of measurement provides the most accurate readings as they are taken through the lightguide in the actual production setting. The BlueWave 75 spot lamp emits UVA and blue visible light (300-450 nm) and is designed for curing of UV and visible light-curable adhesives, coatings, and encapsulants. It contains an integral shutter which can be actuated by a foot pedal or PLC making it ideal for both manual and automated processes. An auto-ranging power supply provides consistent performance at any input voltage (90-264V, 47-63 Hz). Dymax also offers a wide range of longlasting liquid and fiber lightguides in single, multi-legged, and various length configurations. The BlueWave 75 with intensity adjustment is the most versatile, user-friendly, and reliable spot cure unit available. Marked BlueWave 75 UV-Curing Spot Lamp with Patented Intensity Adjustment and Four-Pole Lightguide FEATURES 2 Patented manual intensity adjustment >9,000 mW/cm initial intensity Simple to operate and adjust Integral shutter with digital timer 2,000 hours useful life Foot switch Proprietary “Cool Blue™” filter virtually eliminates liquid lightguide degradation Wide range of lightguides available (liquid/fiber, single/multi-pole, various lengths) Universal input voltage for global operation Fast bulb replacement

How Does the BlueWave® 75 Patented Intensity Adjustment Feature Work? All bulbs used to power high-intensity UV-curing spot lamps degrade over time from normal use. This typically results in a gradual decrease in total intensity as the bulb ages (shown in Chart 1). Recognizing this, UV-curing processes are usually validated using the lowest acceptable intensity level to maximize bulb life. However, this means that for the majority of the production process, curing is done with a higher intensity level than is actually ® necessary, and it can be expected that the intensity will decrease over...
