PROBLEM-SOLVING QUESTIONS

Only use the original batteries in combination with the PDL

  •  If the batteries are swopped out frequently please ensure that Aluminium powder dust, coming from the threading of the battery shaft, is not creating a problem with the operation of the PDL. A separate instruction sheet on the cleaning of the PDL is available on request.

Aluminium powder dust in the tail part and battery shaft can create a problem.

  • If the batteries are swopped out frequently please ensure that Aluminium powder dust, coming from the threading of the battery shaft, is not creating a problem with the operation of the PDL. A separate instruction sheet on the cleaning of the PDL is available on request.
  • The original batteries of the PDL offer a specific voltage to ensure that the UV-A LED will operate for a longer period of time. Non-genuine 18650 batteries often come with a lower voltage setting, which creates problems with the operation of the UV LED lamp circuit. Therefore make sure that you only use the PDL with the original, genuine batteries.
  • To avoid battery fatigueness make sure that the batteries are charged at least once a year in a separate battery charger. ( parallel charger) This will ensure a regeneration of the cells and offer a prolonged lifetime.

 

An internal temperature switch may switch off the PDL, if a critical temperature has been reached.

  • In UV-A setting, the PDL offers 5 x 5 watt of UV-A power. This offers the UV intensity needed to carry out a thorough inspection.
  • At this power level the temperature rises fast and after 10 to 15 minutes the PDL reaches its critical temperature of 60 degrees Celsius.
  • At this temperature the power is switched off (this to prevent that the temperature will create internal damages).
  • The PDL than needs to be cooled down for a certain period of time. To lengthen the operational time of the PDL: Make sure that you switch off the PDL in between the inspection moments.
