Polar 92 EMC's cutting light bulb

Hi everyone,

We've been using a second-hand Polar 92 EMC cutting machine for quite some time, and it's been a real workhorse. The only issue we've been facing is that the cutting light isn't bright enough and keeps burning out. (I'm not sure if Polar has a specific term for this light, but it shows where the cutter will make the cut.)

Yesterday, all the cutting lights went out again, and our engineer found that the fuses have burned out. We've recorded a short video showing the markings on the fuses, which read "T4L250V." However, we're not sure about the amperage. You can view the video here:

If anyone could help us with the fuse specifications, we'd be super grateful! Your expertise means a lot to us.

Thanks a bunch for your time and assistance!

 

Hello Tyrushen,

it's right. There are two fuses intended to protect this lamp circuit. Lamps intended to iluminate the work area. They are originally rated 4A / 250V. and they are called in the circuit F3 and F5, one for each of the lamps. The source bring 12,5 Vac from the main transformer. Thats all.

 

Hi oabrahim,

Thank you very much for your generosity to share your knowledge! It helps a lot!

 

Hi everyone,

I'm not sure if it's appropriate to post another question here, so please let me know if I should create a new thread.

We recently replaced the light bulb and fuses of the pilot light in our Polar 92 EMC cutting machine. However, my colleagues have noticed that the light appears to be too dim. Our engineer mentioned that using a brighter bulb might lead to overheating and more frequent burnouts. I've heard about LED strip lights that are much brighter than traditional light bulbs and operate at lower temperatures. For those who may not be familiar with LED strip lights, you can find more information about them at this link: LED Strip Lights Introduction.

I was wondering if anyone has attempted to replace the pilot light with an LED strip before?

Thank you all for your help.

 

Sorry to hijack the thread
We are having the similar issue with both lights not working
I have checked F3 and F5 fuses and they are still intact, there is 123volts to the switch, we have also changed the bulb in the strip light but not the cut light, is there anything else I can try
