Catalytic xenon lamp light source is a collective term for research-grade xenon lamp light sources used in photocatalysis/photocatalysis experiments.
Microsolar 300 Xenon Lamp Light Source, PLS-SXE 300D Xenon Lamp Light Source, and PLS-SXE 300DUV Xenon Lamp Light Source have achieved a small volume structure for domestic xenon lamp light source boxes, with strong versatility, flexibility, and portability, meeting the experimental needs of multi-directional irradiation in small spaces.
The light source boxes of Microsolar 300 Xenon Lamp Light Source, PLS-SXE 300D Xenon Lamp Light Source, and PLS-SXE 300DUV Xenon Lamp Light Source all use non-metallic outer shells and high insulation resistance to ensure the safety of xenon lamp light sources.

Instructions for Xenon Lamp Light Source Instrument
Before turning on the machine, please make sure there are no foreign objects on the top of the lamp box, and confirm that all the connections are made and the light exit is facing downward.
1. Before turning on the machine, clean up any debris or foreign objects on the workbench to prevent debris from being sucked into the power supply and light source box by the fan.
2. Turn on the power switch on the back panel of the xenon lamp light source, and the power box screen will display the welcome interface. Then press the RUN button to trigger the xenon lamp. There will be a "click" sound when it is turned on, which is normal.
Xenon lamp light sources must be triggered by clicking the "RUN" button on the welcome interface and must not be triggered by clicking the "RUN" button on other interfaces.

3. Microsolar 300 Xenon Lamp Light Source and PLS-SXE 300D/UV Xenon Lamp Light Source can adjust the working current of the xenon lamp bulb by adjusting the "+""-" buttons on the front panel of the power supply box when they are in working mode. The current increase or decrease can control the optical power density of the xenon lamp light source.
4. Timer and cumulative timer functions
Microsolar 300 Xenon Lamp Light Source and PLS-SXE 300D/300DUV Xenon Lamp Light Source have timer and cumulative timer functions.
① Timer function
After setting the timer function, the built-in system of the xenon lamp light source will automatically time, and the time countdown will be displayed on the screen. After the set time is reached, the xenon lamp light source will automatically turn off. The specific operation is as follows: After turning on the xenon lamp light source power switch, press the "SET" button to display the timer interface, as shown in the left figure of Figure 6. The two digits on the left side of ":" are hours, and the two digits on the right side of ":" are minutes. Press the "STOP" button to switch the cursor position, and press the "-" button to decrease the value of the cursor position. Press the "+" button to increase the value of the cursor position. After setting the time, press the "SET" button again. At this time, you still need to press the "SET" button to return to the welcome interface. Click the "RUN" button to start the timer mode.
If you turn off the xenon lamp light source by pressing the "STOP" button after setting the timer time and the timer time has not ended, the system will still remember the remaining time, and when you start the xenon lamp light source next time, the uncompleted timer time will continue. If the set timer time is 00:00, the xenon lamp light source will continue to operate after triggering.
② Cumulative timer function
The built-in system of the xenon lamp light source accumulates usage time. After turning on the xenon lamp power switch, click the "SET" button twice to read the cumulative timer through the screen display.

5. Turning off the light source:
After the experiment is completed, press the "STOP" button to turn off the xenon lamp light source. Due to the fan delay function of Microsolar 300 Xenon Lamp Light Source and PLS-SXE 300D/300DUV Xenon Lamp Light Source, the light source box fan will still run after turning off the power, and the screen will display a countdown. When the countdown reaches 0, the xenon lamp light source box fan will automatically stop. At this time, you can turn off the power supply by switching off the power switch on the back panel of the power supply box.
