Installation method of iodine tungsten lamp

1, iodine tungsten lamp should be installed horizontally, and the inclination should not be greater than 40, otherwise the service life of the lamp will be seriously affected. Because when the lamp is tilted, more tungsten iodide and halogen will accumulate at the bottom of the lamp tube, and the upper part of the lamp tube cannot maintain the normal iodine-tungsten cycle because of the lack of halogen, and the glass shell of the lamp is easy to blacken and the filament is easy to burn out, which affects the use effect and service life.

2, the power supply voltage should be consistent with the rated voltage of the lamp.

3. When the lamp tube works, the wall temperature of the tube is as high as 500 ~ 700℃. Attention should be paid to heat dissipation, and flammable materials should not be placed around the tube.

4. Because the filament is fragile, violent vibration and impact should be avoided.

4. iodine tungsten lamp has poor earthquake resistance, so it is not suitable for use in places with strong re-vibration, let alone as a mobile light source.

Extended data:

Ordinary iodine tungsten lamp is often used as lighting source for cinematography, stage, factories, buildings and squares. Compared with ordinary incandescent lamps, iodine tungsten lamp greatly reduces the evaporation of tungsten, prolongs the service life, and improves the working temperature and luminous efficiency.

The principle of iodine tungsten lamp is similar to that of incandescent lamp, except that it is filled with iodine vapor. Iodine vapor has a property that it combines with tungsten at low temperature and decomposes at high temperature. In this way, the sublimated tungsten in other parts of the lamp tube is combined and decomposed on the filament, so that the filament will not burn quickly because of high temperature.
