    PRIMES FocusMonitor-W Mounting/Dismounting Inserting/Exchanging the Measuring Tip There are different measurement tips available for different wavelengths (see „Tab. 5.1: Variety of measure- ment tips and detectors“ on page 5). NOTICE Danger of damaging the measuring tip The small drill hole in the measuring tip can be blocked easily by dirt particles or by touching it with bare hands.

Insert the retaining plate in the disc with the guidance groove pointing upwards and an angle of 45 degrees and press it downwards into the opening (see Fig. 7.4).
  • Page 8: Exchanging The Detector

    When turning the supply voltage back on, the measuring head automatically moves back into its standby position. Exchanging the Detector The NIR detector is the standard detector of the FocusMonitor-W. For measurements with a CO laser the detector has to be replaced by a CO detector.

    PRIMES FocusMonitor-W Measuring WARNING Danger of injuries due to laser radiation Scattered radiation may develop during the measurement (laser class 4). Please always wear laser safety goggles which are adapted to the laser wavelength used. Please ensure an adequate shielding of the scattered radiation and the complete absorption of the radiation passing the device.
