IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (Read all instructions)
• Do not operate the CLARITY™ 365 UV-A LED flashlight (SPN-CLR-BA/SPN-CLR-
BHA) if it has been physically damaged.
• Do not look directly into the light. ALWAYS wear the UV-absorbing protective glasses
provided when operating the flashlight. Use in low-light conditions to achieve the best
inspection results. The darker the room, the greater the fluorescent contrast.
• Use only 3 disposable Alkaline C batteries for the CLARITY 365.
• The CLARITY 365 is not approved for use in hazardous atmospheres. Do not attempt
to use it in areas requiring explosion-proof lighting.
• Never use this equipment in any manner not specified in these instructions because
your protection may be impaired.
• NEVER aim the flashlight in the direction of another human being. It is meant for
professional fluorescent inspections ONLY!
• DO NOT attempt to modify the lens assembly or light output. Doing so may alter the
performance and intensity of the CLARITY 365, and render the item out of compliance.
CLARITY 365 OPERATION
• The CLARITY 365 is shipped factory set at the specified intensity for optimal
performance during inspections.
• Carefully unpack and inspect the flashlight for possible damage during shipment. If any
damage is noted, immediately notify the carrier and supplier before attempting to use
the lamp.
• The CLARITY 365 has one button (on and off). Prior to using the unit, ensure that the
button is in the OFF position (no light illuminating from the flashlight). Press the button
once to turn the flashlight on. Instant-on operation ensures that the UV-A LED will reach full
intensity very quickly. Check to see if the unit is operating optimally. Press it again to
turn the flashlight off.
ENVIRONMENTAL SPECIFICATIONS
The CLARITY 365 series lamps are designed to be safe under the following conditions:
• For Indoor/Outdoor Use (dustproof and protected against water pressure);

WARNING

REPLACING THE BATTERIES
The 3 C batteries will deteriorate from repeated use. Turn the flashlight upside
down and twist off the tail cap counterclockwise. Remove the tail cap from the
flashlight, and then replace with fresh C-cell alkaline batteries.
NOTE: Be sure to use genuine CLARITY 365 (SPN-CLR-BA/SPN-CLR-BHA) replacement
parts. Using another manufacturer's replacement parts could affect product performance
and will void the warranty.
MEASURING UV-A INTENSITY
To ensure that your CLARITY 365 flashlight is operating at the required UV-A intensity, it
should be checked periodically. The AccuPRO™ XP-2000 combines the functionality of
a UV and visible light radiometer/photometer, and is specially designed to measure UV
irradiance with wavelengths of 320–400nm (with peak at 365nm) and visible light from
460–675nm (with peak at 555nm). Other suitable meters include the AccuMAX™ XRP-3000
radiometer/photometer kit, using dual-wavelength UV-A and VIS sensor detectors to
accurately measure the irradiance of a light source. The AccuMAX™ XR-1000 digital readout
unit with the XS-365 UV sensor or the DM-365XA digital readout unit can also be used for UV-A
measurement.
WARRANTY
The warranty policy for the CLARITY 365 flashlight is provided on the Certificate of Limited
Warranty enclosed separately with each unit. The part number and serial number for your
item is located on the inside of the tail cap.
SHIPPING
Please be prepared to provide the model number and serial number of the unit when you
contact the Customer Service Department at Spectro-UV. Carefully pack the unit in the
original shipping and packing material. Ship the unit prepaid to the factory and reference
