It sounds as if the Voltage Sensing Relay is not working correctly or is set too high. The Voltage Sensing is used to indicate a Lamps ready status which is used to start the cooling blower and indicate to the press to start running. If the Voltage Sensing Relay never kicks on, the blower will not start and so the lamp will continue to heat up, and the press will never get the signal to start. Obviously an un-cooled lamp will damage anything within and near the irradiator, including reflectors, cables, junction boxes and the lamps.
