08.0 Safety Notice
NOTICE
CAUTION
Use of controls or adjustments, or performance
of procedures other than those contained in the
operation, maintenance or any other manual
provided with this machine may result in
hazardous radiation exposure.
This laser process machine is certified as a CLASS 1 laser product to the requirements of the US Federal Product Performance Standard for
Laser Products contained in the regulations in 21 CFR Subchapter J except for specific deviations described in FDA Laser Notice #50.
Class 1 laser products are not considered to be hazardous.
This machine incorporates a Class 4 laser and optical system which, by itself, may be hazardous. However, this machine incorporates a
protective housing, laser protective viewing window, and safety interlocks in the machine design such that there is no exposure or human access
to the laser radiation generated by the laser during operation or maintenance.
All service to the laser process machine, the embedded laser system and optics requiring interlock override shall only be performed by 3D
Systems Corporation service personnel, their authorized agents, or personnel trained by 3D Systems Corporation. The manufacturer's user
information for the incorporated laser products are supplied with this process machine.
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCE shall attempts be made by the user to operate the laser with safety interlocks bypassed or tool removable access
panels that allow access to laser radiation removed. Labels are provided on the products that indicate hazards. Reproductions of these labels and
diagrams showing their location are provided in this manual.
The laser should not be operated if the laser protective window material installed onto the front of the process chamber is damaged or removed.
The window material has a measured minimum optical density (OD) of 5+ @ 355nm. Contact the manufacturer for replacement information.
