1.0 Pre-installation Considerations

1.1 Inspection

When the system arrives, any sign of damage to the shipping crates should be brought to the
attention of the delivering freight company and noted on the invoice before signing the invoice. A
claim must be filed with that commercial carrier (usually within 30 days). Notify the originating
Spectra-Physics office of any shipping damage. Shipping damage is not covered by Spectra-
Physics. Your packing list will show all items that you have ordered. Open all the packages and
check each item for possible damage during shipping. Check the items against your packing list.
Some items may have been installed at the factory.
Each system comes with a User's Manual you should familiarize yourself with. Please report any
missing or damaged items to Spectra-Physics at 1-800-456-2552 or service@spectra-
physics.com. You should also contact your Spectra-Physics Field Sales Engineer at 1-800-775-
5273, or sales@spectra-physics.com.

1.2 Review Instruction Manuals

Please read the manual to get vital information about your system. Familiarize yourself with the
system. You are encouraged to spend as much time as possible reviewing the system
components before your Spectra-Physics Customer Service Engineer arrives for the installation
and training. Refer to Chapter 4 of the User's Manual for more information on installation.

1.3 Laser Safety Considerations

In addition to reviewing the sections in the manual regarding laser safety, be sure to have the
proper safety glasses available for ALL lab personnel present during the installation and testing of
your system. For more information, please call Spectra-Physics at 1-800-456-2556. Please refer
to Chapter 2 of the User's Manual for more information on laser safety.

1.4 Diagnostics

During installation, power measurements will be demonstrated on all the appropriate wavelengths.
Your Customer Service Engineer can identify which specifications will be demonstrated and the
equipment necessary to conduct such tests. A non-standard system will require special
consideration.
To have other published specifications demonstrated, consult with your Customer Service
Engineer to determine whether additional diagnostic equipment will be required.
Basic diagnostics equipment such as power meter and spectrometer are required to operate and
maintain the laser systems. We recommend that you obtain this basic diagnostics equipment
before the system is installed. Please contact Newport at 1-800-222-6440 or sales@newport.com
for Sales or Technical Questions.
