2.6. Air Requirements
WARNING: To prevent damage to the AGV3D, do not attach a water hose to an air fitting
or an air hose to a water fitting.
DANGER: High pressure air can cause severe injury.

If the -AC (air-cooling) option was purchased, use this option to cool the turning mirrors and dynamic
focusing module.
A gas supply pressure of 517 kPa to 586 kPa (75 psi to 85 psi) is required. Gas must be delivered via a
polyurethane air hose with an outer diameter of 4 mm. Unless otherwise specified, a gas flow rate of 20
SLPM (standard liters per minute) at 550 kPa (80 psi) should be observed.
If nitrogen is used, it must be 99.99% pure and filtered to 0.25 microns. [Recommended]
l
If compressed air is used, it must be filtered to 0.25 microns, dry to 0º F dew point, and oil free.
l
The filtration requirement is necessary to prevent particles from damaging the optical surfaces of the
turning mirrors.

Lock out the source and bleed off the pressure before you do service to the equip-
ment.
Wear eye protection.
