1. After the test is completed, clean the Water Cool Light Fastness Tester and control system and clean the equipment regularly.

2. Check the condition of the machine regularly to maintain the integrity of all parts and components.

3. Maintain temperature and humidity stability to prevent damage to the machine and control system caused by high temperature, excessive humidity, dust, corrosive media, water, etc.

4. For parts prone to rust, apply anti-rust oil and check them regularly.

5. The Light Fastness Tester (water-cool) has been calibrated before leaving the factory. Non-professionals are not allowed to calibrate it at will.

6. Non-professionals are not allowed to dismantle the machine at will. After each dismantling and repair, measurement and performance calibration must be carried out to avoid affecting the accuracy of the test.

7. No unauthorized modification of the machine is allowed during its use.

8. The filter should be cleaned regularly. Any traces left on the mirror surface should be wiped off with a very soft cloth. If there are stains on the quartz glass tube, it can be cleaned with hydrochloric acid, and the infrared and ultraviolet filters can be cleaned with 20% citric acid.

9. Since dust in the air will contaminate the glass and affect the efficiency of the lamp in irradiating the sample, it needs to be cleaned every 3 to 4 weeks of use.

10. Clean the air filter regularly, preferably by blowing it with compressed air or dry brushing it with a soft-bristle brush.

11. When the xenon arc lamp has worked for 1000-1500 hours and the filter has worked for 1000 hours, in order to avoid irradiance deviation caused by device aging, new accessories must be replaced (depending on the attenuation of the light source).

12. In order to avoid irradiance deviation caused by device aging, the xenon arc lamp should be replaced with a new one after working for 1000-1500 hours and the filter should be replaced after working for 1000 hours (depending on the attenuation of the light source).

13. To ensure the normal operation of the Light Fastness Test Chamber, the water level in the water tank must be checked regularly. When not in use for a long time, the water should be drained cleanly. When draining, first lead the plastic pipe connected to the manual reversing valve at the outlet of the water pump out of the chassis, put the pipe mouth away from the instrument and fix it properly (to avoid getting the instrument wet), pull up the reversing valve handle, turn on the power switch, and the water will be automatically drained. After draining, return the reversing valve handle to its original position (flat to the right).
