( page 5, Classifica- tion of laser devices). The mirrors of the SUPERSCAN II high-speed versions are made of beryllium. The rating plate indicates if this applies to the present deflection unit ( page 13, Detailed Description).
Basic safety instructions Chapter 1 Lenses for CO2 laser deflection units with linear translator modules are made of zinc selenide. The rating plate indicates if this applies to the present deflection unit ( page 13, Detailed Description). In addition, these deflection units are provided with the adjacent sign.
However, the applicable local and national standards, rules and regulations are binding. cover RAYLASE deflection unit laser shutter deflected laser beam reflected laser beam laser area working surface RAYLASE 2-Axis Deflection Unit SS-II MN065_v1.0.1...
Basic safety instructions Chapter 1 Special hazards caused by mirrors made of beryllium Beryllium mirrors can be destroyed by improper loading. This can lead to a release of berylli- um dusts. These dusts can cause cancer, are toxic if swallowed and very toxic by inhalation. Please observe the specified maximum applicable laser power in the data sheet.
You should therefore familiarize yourself with the content of this manual before using the deflection unit for the first time. In case of any queries, please contact RAYLASE. The operating manual must be accessible to anyone who will be involved in developing, in- stalling or using a laser device featuring the RAYLASE deflection unit.

Functional description Chapter 4 Only for deflection units fitted with an F-Theta lens F-Theta lens The F-Theta lens is designed especially for use with 2-axis deflection units. It focuses the laser beam at optimum quality to any position on the marking field. At the same time, it pro- vides partial optical compensation for the barrel-shaped distortion that is unavoidable when using a two-axis deflection unit.
Functional description Digital interface The deflection unit is connected to a RAYLASE control card using the 25-pin D-SUB connect- or. All signals are compatible with RAYLASE's extended function XY2-100 standard. If the deflection unit is equipped with an 9-pin D-SUB connector, the power supply for the unit is performed on this connector.
Functional description Chapter 4 Power supply The 9-pin D-SUB connector provides the deflection unit with power. The power supply must be provided by the OEM customer. Refer to the following connection and parameter table: Designation Voltage Current Residual Noise ripple ≤100mV ≤0.5% DC at 1, 2, 6...
Note: The deflection unit may only be installed using the pins and screws specified by RAYLASE. Follow the installation drawing supplied. o For details about the connection, the deflection unit to a RAYLASE control card, refer to the corresponding manual.
MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING The subsystem doesn‘t contain any components that require regular maintenance. Repairs may only be carried out by RAYLASE or RAYLASE certified service centers because special know-how and comprehensive testing methods are required. RAYLASE offers worldwide certified service and repair centers.
The mirror surfaces are extremely sensitive and may only be cleaned by experienced person- nel. We strongly recommend sending the deflection unit in to RAYLASE for the mirror clean- ing, as opening of the deflection unit by unauthorized personnel voids the warranty.
Label the defective deflection unit with a clear warning and send the unit airtight and well packaged to RAYLASE. The persons commissioned with the dismantling of the deflection unit must wear suitable protective clothing and respirators.

Disposal Chapter 8 DISPOSAL For the disposal of the deflection unit, note local policies, regulations and laws. If the mirrors are made of beryllium, the local Hazardous Substance Regulations must be considered.
