3 Generalsafety regulations
Compact flash systems store electrical energy in capacitors
by applying high voltages. These form a source of danger,
which must be carefully excluded. Besides general rules on
handling electrical appliances, the following safety
measurementsmust be obserued.Therefore read and comply
the safety hints (also see the paragraph Stanrn@) wiifiiri-lhEre user manualbeforetumingthe applianceon.3
Properuse The present compact flash unit is meant for studio use of
professional photographers. lts task is to provide electrical
energyfor HENSELflash lighting.
lmproperuse The appliance may not be used for any other purpose than
that described above, especially not for other electrical
appliances.
Halogen lamps and flashtubes generate hlgh pressure
during operation and can thereforc explode. For this
leason it is a must to protect pilot and flashlight with thet supplied correctly installed HENSEL protection glass
dome. The glass dome is available in differcnt versions.
The use of the glass dome changes the colour
temperaturc.*.ww
o Contact with the capacitor voltage is perilous, and therefore
opening of the case of EXPERT / INTEGHA PRO compact
flash units and repairs must only be made by authorized
customer seruice.
EXPERT / INTEGRA PRO compact flash units are equipped
with a user replaceableflashtube. Exchange of flashtube and
modeling lamp must only be performed with the appliance
turned off, unpluggedfrom the mains and discharged.
Gompact flashes must only used on supply lines (mains) with
wod<ingprotectiveconductor(earth line).
Do not route cables across the studio floor if possible,so that
damage is excluded. lf routing across the studio floor cannot
be omitted,then it must be ensuredthat vehicles,ladders,etc.
do not damage cables. Damaged cables and cases must be
immediatelyreplacedby customerseruice.

Manual EXPERT / INTEGRA PRO Compact
Ventilationslots of compact flashes must be kept free during
operation and sutficient air supply must be ensured. Do not
stick any objects into ventilation slots or synchronization
sockets. Do not deposit any objects (tools, coffee cups, etc.)
on the flash unit.
Flash systems must not be used in environments with
expfosion hazard. Flammable materials, like fumishing
fabrics, paper, etc. must not be stored in the immediate
vicinityof compactflash units to preventfire hazards.
Compact flash units must be protected against humidity and -F
J spray water.
Do not connect accessoriesfrom other manufacturers,even if
they use the same or similarconnectors.
Flash units - hanging from pantographsor ceiling - must be
doubly secured againstfalling down.
Do not flash into eyes at short distances (smaller than 5 m),
because this can lead to eye damage. Do not look directlyinto
the flash reflector; the flash lamp could be triggered
inadveftently.
Regularlyair closed rooms to preventbuild-upof inadmissible
ozone concentrations,which can occur due to the use of high-
powered flash systems.
Duringwork in the studiogeneratingmuch dust,the appliance
must be covered with suitable dust protection (not during
operation).

7 StartingUp
Safety hints for operation with compact flash units
To avoid damage to the flashtube mount reflectorsand light-
formers (softboxesetc.) before use and turning on the unit. Do
not move compact flashes around, while they are operating.
Turn off the appliance for each change of reflectorsor to move
the unit to anotherlocation.
Caution:
Reflectors, speedrings and other accessories heat up during
longer operation. To avoid injuries, handle with isolating cloth
or wait, till pafts cooled down.
A damaged flashtube is extrcmely dangerous because
the electrically charged electrodes are exposed and
touching must be avoided; the unit must be switched off
and d!@!gd from the mains outlet immediately. The
capacitors inside may still be charged and dangerous
high voltage can still be present at the damaged flashtube
electrodes (Replacement see page 39, Maintenance).
Assembly
When mounting to a ceiling system or a pantograph,
suspended compact flash has to be double secured from
falling down or dropping.This is done by tighteningthe safety
screw (not includedin the standarddelivery)into the thread of
the HENSELTiltingHead.
Due to the existing safety regulations, it is, however,
necessary to use a safety rope (Code No. 769) for fufther
security.
The safety rope has to be led through the handle of the
compact flash and then secured by looping through the
bracket on the pantograph or the eyelet on the carriage.
Heatino
Due to the modeling lamp and flashlight,each compact flash
unit emits heat. This can heat up the parts of the unit to a
dangerouslevel.
Thereforemake sure, that the flash unit is locatedfar enough
from inflammableprops to avoid inflamingthem.
HENSELStudiotechnik

ManualEXPERT/INTEGRAPROCompact
Take care for sufficient air supply and make sure that
ventilation slots of compact flash units are kept free.
Do not operateflash units unattended.
The modeling light should never be used for lighting up the
studio but only as an assistancewhen focusingor determining
the light guidingand shadow detailsof the flash.
Accllmatlzlng
When moving the flash unit from one climatic zone to the next,
the appliance should stand in the room, in which it will be
operated, for some time before starting it up. This prevents
possiblesudace leakagecurrentsdue to condensingwater.
Positlonlng
EXPERT / INTEGRA PRO compact flash units come with a
Tilting Head. The unit can be attached to a stand or
pantographsusing one of the two holes and safely secured by
fasteningthe lockingscrew 19. The angle of inclinationcan be
adjustedusing the wing nut 20. ln the hole above the wing nut
an umbrella can be insefied and fastened using the clamping
screw 18. To hold even heavy loads it is advisableto find a
new optimal positionfor the Tilting Head within the gliding rail.
For doing this unscrew the Phillips screw 17 and slide the
Tilting Head within the rail until the weight is balanced and
finally tighten the screw. An additional valuable feature for
handling heavy weights is the pre-frictionthat ensures a
decelerated and smooth movement of the Tilting Head. lf
requiredthe friction can be varied by turning the hexagon nut
16 to the left or to the right. The features 16 and 17 are only
availablefor the respectivePLUS versions.
Fixing of the glass dome
Atteniion:
The glass dome should only be fixed or removed after having
switched off the unit and unplugged from the mains outlet.
Please take care not to damage either the flashtube or the
modeling lamp (danger!).
The glass dome is fixed by means of the three pre-mounted
springs. For doing this, please slightlytilt the glass dome and
inseft it into one of the three springs. Then press the glass
dome gently into the other two springs until it has completely
clicked in.

An umbrella holder is integrated in the tilting head that allows
for the connection of various umbrellas by using a strong
18: gripping spring mechanism.The umbrella is insefted into the
Clamping screw hole above the wing nut 20 and fastened by tightening the
for umbrcllas clampingscrew 18.
Mainsconnection
Attention:
Before connecting the compact flash unit to the mains outlet,
make sure, the mains voltage matches the information given on
the type labelof the compact flash. The type label can be found
on the bottom of the appliance.
All EXPERT PRO compac flash units are only for
230V/ 50-60 Hz operation.
The INTEGRA PRO sen'es comes with muftivoltage

Handle halogen lamp with care because of the high pressure
inside. Pull out halogen lamp and replace the modeling lamp
with a new one.
Avoid touching the halogen lamp with your fingerc; this causes
a higher isk of explosion of the halogen lamp.
