Abstract:
There is provided method for controlling radiation emitting from one or more tubular lamps in an exposure apparatus for exposing a photosensitive element to the radiation. The method involves adjusting an adjustable ballast connected to the one or more lamps thereby adjusting the power received by the one or more lamps, wherein adjusting the ballast of the one or more lamps is based on the actual temperature and radiation of the one or more lamps.

Claim (Index 10):
The exposure apparatus according to  claim 9 , wherein the control unit is configured to implement a method for controlling radiation emitting from one or more tubular lamps in an exposure apparatus for exposing a photosensitive element to the radiation said apparatus comprising a central control unit and an adjustable ballast connected to the one or more lamps for adjusting the power W (ballast) received by the one or more lamps, wherein the method comprises the step of adjusting the ballast of the one or more lamps is based on a pre-characterization of the one or more lamps, said pre-characterization determining the output of the one or more lamps has been determined as a function of lamp current (A) and/or temperature T, optionally over the life time t, of the one or more lamps, whereby the central control unit is configured to adjust the ballast of the one or more lamps based on the basis of said pre-characterization to achieve a lamp output in the range of 15 to 25 mWatt/cm2.
