New to the business, got some questions.

I've bought a salon with 3 beds. 2 UWE tropical & 1 Kettler Siena.

Im not really sure that the owner before been so serious about it, about changing lamps. Its a small business and only a few customers a day up to 5-7 at most. But he told me that he had changed every second lamp, once a year. So, only half of them once a year.

And i got some boxes with lamps, some packaged and some of them aren't. He told med that they were new, but some lamps from maxlight are packaged into the philips boxes so im not really sure.

So.. my questions
1. Whats the difference between lamps.. like philips "S" "SR" "R" ?
I think that these sunbeds are made for reflectors. Not really sure? But the philips lamps are Performance SR 100 w.

2.Is there any way i can check the status of the lamps? Just an simple UV Measurement or something? So i know, that im mounting fresh lamps

3. Reflector, is it the metal shield between every third or second lamp? Its white tough on the Siena, maybe it doesnt matter.

------------------

Just have to say, thanks in advance. I really appreciate your kindness and all the help i get from you guys. I have nobody to ask here in Sweden, only the distr. and i dont really trust them :)
