SECTION 2
Installation
Proper operating conditions are vital to a safe and productive
environment. This section describes the ideal environment and setup of the laser system. Failure to
operate the laser system within these guidelines can seriously damage the laser system and may cause
an unsafe operating environment. Although conforming to these guidelines will greatly reduce the chance
of a problem occurring, it does not guarantee it. It is your responsibility to provide a safe and proper
operating environment.
Operating Environment
Ambient room temperature MUST be between 50 and 95 degrees F (10 and 35 degrees C). The
•
Laser Cartridge is equipped with a special temperature sensor that detects if the ambient
room temperature is not within specifications and will prevent the Laser Cartridge from
emitting a laser beam until proper room temperature is achieved.
Ambient room dewpoint temperatures MUST be less than 50 degrees F (10 degrees C).
•
Avoid dusty or dirty air environments that can damage the laser system. Also, keep the laser system
•
isolated from any type of sandblasting, sanding, grinding, milling, sawing, or any other machinery that
produces airborne particles or caustic fumes.
Provide a worktable or storage area next to or nearby the system. This prevents the operator from
•
using the system as a table or storage facility.
Refer to the "INPUT POWER" sticker near the system's ON/OFF switch and power inlet for your
•
system's electrical requirements. Make sure that your electrical outlet is capable of providing the
proper voltage, frequency and amperage that your laser system needs.
Noisy or unstable electricity as well as voltage spikes can cause interference and possible damage to
•
the electronics of the laser system. It may be necessary to connect the laser system to a dedicated
electrical line if this is a problem.
If electrical power fluctuations, brown outs, or constant power outages are a problem in your area, an
•
electrical line stabilizer, UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply), or backup generator might be required.
If installing any of these devices, make sure that they meet the electrical requirements of the laser
system.
