If you choose to set up your laser system in a multi-use area, a blocking barrier, screen, or
curtain, certified for blocking the laser beam, must be used to create a smaller area inside a
larger room. The barrier should be set up
to simulate a “light-tight” room with single entry
access as described above.
Warning:
Always post a laser safety sign on the outside of the treatment room door
or single access point when the laser is in use.
1.4. Fire and Explosion Hazards
Warning:
Do not operate this laser system in areas that have explosion hazards such
as flammable materials, gases or substances. A fire or explosion could occur. The
laser beam can ignite most nonmetallic materials. A fire extinguisher should be readily
available.
1.5. Safety Features
The laser system has multiple safety features. All individuals who use this laser system
should be trained and made aware of the following features:
1.5.1. Emergency Stop Button
The button (
Figure 1
) is located on the front of the laser system and is
illuminated when the machine is on. Push the button to turn off all
electrical power to the device’s microprocessor and stop the laser-
emitting components.
1.5.2. Password Entry
The laser system is equipped with password entry as the key control, which is required after
powering on the device, to prevent unauthorized system access.
1.5.3. Remote Interlock Connector
The laser system is equipped with a remote interlock connector
(
Figure 2
) located on the bottom of the device. The remote interlock
connector stops laser emission when the plug is removed or when the
terminals of the connector are open.
The laser system is shipped with a mating connector (as shown in
Figure 2
). The mating
connector MUST be inserted (or remote interlock circuit with closed door) for the laser
system to emit.
1.5.4. Laser Emission Indicators
The state of the laser system is shown on the touch screen and front bezel and indicated
through audible alerts and the aiming beam.
