    It is recommended to wear approved goggles and protective clothing. Protective clothing includes, but is not limited to: closed-toed shoes, full-length pants, and splash-resistant lab coats or equivalents. 3D Systems recommends using 100% nitrile gloves; however, other chemical-resistant gloves will suffice. Do NOT use latex gloves, as they do not provide complete chemical protection.
  • Page 11 In-Service Life In-service life of the material is defined as the useful life of the material after having been pumped into the Figure 4 Modular machine's resin tray. The in-service life of material greatly varies depending on material type, usage and environmental conditions.

  • Page 12: Environmental Safety

    The Printer room should have a minimum cooling capacity of 1.4 KW. We recommend an HVAC system that changes the air six times per hour. To avoid adversely affecting part quality, do not expose the Figure 4 Modular system to direct air flow from the air conditioning system.

  • Page 13: Electrical Safety

    The Figure 4 Modular was designed to minimize operator exposure to electrical hazards during normal operations. Do not remove any panels or other parts of the Figure 4 Modular casing. All exposed electrical circuits are contained within limited- access cabinets. This is to separate the operator from service and maintenance areas. Only 3D Systems Service Personnel should access the electrical panels.
