  • Page 72 When the optic is clean, replace the optic and lens and connect purge gas to the Laser head beam delivery. Where severe contamination has permanently damaged the optic, contact the Luxinar After Sales team to purchase a new optic (this will come bonded into its frame).
  • Page 73 If the filter becomes discoloured or contaminated, the purge gas supply should be checked and the filter should be replaced immediately. Replacement filters are available from the Luxinar After Sales Team part number 402-0006-00. Refer to the relevant manufacturer’s instructions for maintenance of the purge gas supply and any associated equipment.
  • Page 74 Luxinar does not accept liability for any damage or injury howsoever caused or arising. The pilot laser is a red diode source operating at 635nm and a power not exceeding 4mW. It is a Class 3R device. The beam from the diode has been factory aligned to lie along the same beam path as the laser head CO beam.
  • Page 75 To protect the Laser head from damaging levels of back reflection, an optical isolation unit or ATFR device can be purchased from Luxinar. The device attaches directly to the exit of the Laser head and converts the light from linear to circularly polarised. Light reflected back towards the laser is absorbed by the ATFR mirror within the device, allowing only a few percent through to the laser head.
