Highest output intensity

The Sunspot's 100W lamp delivers the highest UVA intensity per lamp watts in the industry. This means that with its >10W/cm² output, the system will maximize curing speed without overheating the material being cured.

Cool Light Output

The unit features a dichroic coated mirror, which reflects only the useable UV wavelengths of  light through the light guide. The harmful high temperature infrared is diverted away from the material being cured. A secondary in-line filter is utilized to even further reduce heat for extremely sensitive applications. Competitors' units in this high intensity class use only in-line filters, which when used alone are not as effective. Inadequate filtering could result in overheating of the object being cured, and damage of the adhesive bond line.

Long Lamp Life

The SunSpot's unique design features provide exceptional lamp life:

• The lamp is mounted vertically, which allows the arc to fall straight inline with gravity. This prevents the arc from wandering into the quartz envelope and overheating it. This scheme also insures  the arc strikes the conical anode equi-radially, preventing uneven electrode erosion.

• The lamp is constructed with an extra-heavy  blunt tipped anode electrode, which does not degrade quickly over time (like the needle shaped electrodes of traditional arc lamps).

• Airflow is carefully channeled to provide symmetrical cooling of the lamp, which insures long end seal life, and prevents damaging hot spots and arc sputtering.

Lamp power regulation

The system’s patented Power-Plus Lamp Driver maintains constant lamp power regardless of variations in AC line input or lamp voltages. This regulation provides for stable light output, repeatable curing times, and longer lamp life.

Wide- Range AC line input

The Wide Range 90 to 265 VAC line input makes the SunSpot easy to use in any country, with no wiring changes or voltage select switching required.

Timer controlled shutter

The unit features and accurate 1 to 99 second, pedal controlled exposure timer and shutter. The timer can be switched from timed to manual for operator control of curing duration.

Convenient front panel indicators

A front panel hour meter tracks lamp age, allowing for consistent lamp replacement scheduling, and a Lamp Ready LED notifies the user when warm-up is complete. 

Quick-change lamp

The system's side lamp access panel is removed by loosening a single thumbscrew, making lamp or reflector changes possible in 1 to 2 minutes.

Forced air cooling

The quiet dual fan cooling system directs air to critical system components, insuring cool operation and high system reliability. 

Safety Interlocks

The SunSpot features two unique safety interlocks, for maximum protection during operation and maintenance procedures.  The 1^st interlock automatically forces the shutter closed if the light guide is removed, preventing operator exposure to high intensity light.  The 2^nd interlock immediately removes system AC input power when the lamp access panel is removed or not fully closed, protecting the operator from being exposed to high voltages or high intensity light which is present behind the panel.
