  • Page 4: General Information

    This Architect laser system is rated as a Class IV laser product and manufactured in accordance to EN 60825-1:2014. Avoid eye or skin exposure to direct or scattered radiation. Wear protective goggles of suitable optical density if necessary. Architect series - v221220 Kvant Lasers s.r.o.
  • Page 5 The manufacturer and its distributors cannot be held responsible for any damages caused by improper use or misuse of this KVANT Architect laser system. The owner/user is fully responsible for using this product in accordance to laser safety regulations of the country or state where the system is being used.
  • Page 6: What Is A Laser And How Does It Work

    – that is why we need to be cautious about aircrafts. And if you get a system that is powerful enough then yes, it can reach the Moon. Architect series - v221220 Kvant Lasers s.r.o.
  • Page 7 With the DMX control it is possible to reach up to 16.7 million of different of R-G-B combinations. Of course the number and precision of the colours is determined by the modulation, stability and linearity of the system. Architect series - v221220 Kvant Lasers s.r.o.
  • Page 8: Laser Safety First

    Always check for reflective surfaces within the laser range – these can be very dangerous. 8. Never hesitate to use the Emergency STOP if you think there’s a fault within the laser system or a potential danger to a person/object caused by the laser beam. Architect series - v221220 Kvant Lasers s.r.o.
  • Page 9: Installation Of The System

    Due to character and power level of the Architect laser systems, we strongly recommend to user to install the fixture into a protective metal cage that will provide barrier and safe distance between the device and surrounding area. Architect series - v221220 Kvant Lasers s.r.o.
  • Page 10: Control System

    Kvant Architect laser system is supplied with one of two control system options. Either DMX 512 control option (DMX 512 signal input) or analog control option (remote controller included). Please make sure all the laser settings in your control system are set correctly before you start using your Kvant Architect laser system.
  • Page 11: Control Options

    Modulation frequency can be up to 100 kHz. DMX 512 control option Kvant Architect laser system with DMX 512 control option is dedicated to display static beams with remotely adjustable dynamic brightness for each of R, G or B colour.

    Shutter key must be inserted and switched to ON position in order to enable laser emission. Door interlock switch circuitry must be inserted in the E-STOP Remote interlock connector as well in order to disable the interlock. Architect series - v221220 Kvant Lasers s.r.o.
  • Page 13: Multiple System Interlock

    Interlock Multiple Kvant Architect laser systems may be operated and controlled by a single E-STOP Remote. In order to do this, the remote cables from all Architect laser systems must be plugged into E-STOP outputs of the E-STOP splitter (either 8 or 12 channel output version).
  • Page 14: Switching On Sequence And User Interlock

    User Interlock Please make sure that all laser safety requirements and other related requirements are fulfilled in accordance with laws of the country where this KVANT laser lighting system is being used before switching the system ON. Connect the system as showed on Connection Diagram.

    Architect laser system and clean the inside of the window as well. Outdoor installation and also interior operation of KVANT laser system requires special care of cleanness of the output windows. Dried rain drops and all kind of dirt brought by wind or gravity to the window surface can decrease the visual brightness of the output beam or even destroy the output windows due to high visible power density.

    EN 60825-1:2014. Avoid eye or skin exposure to direct or scattered radiation. Wear protective goggles of suitable optical density if necessary. Be cautious when aligning the beams and wear sufficient laser safety protection to avoid accidental exposure to Class 4 laser radiation. Architect series - v221220 Kvant Lasers s.r.o.
  • Page 25: Architect Beam Alignment

    Architect Beam Alignment Although KVANT uses the latest technology to protect all the critical components inside this laser system against Electrostatic Discharge, the semiconductor laser diodes within this system are extremely vulnerable to it. This is due to some of the electronic components being exposed when the top cover is taken off.
