appropriate protection/training to avoid injury from the heat. Empirical testing should be used to verify the
temperature rise in each application.
Bright Visible Light
The bright visible energy emitted by curing systems can cause eyestrain if proper eye protection or shielding is not
used. The use of tinted eye protection and/or opaque/ tinted shielding can be utilized to reduce eyestrain and
address this concern.
Dymax tests all LED equipment per IEC62471 and will mark risk group and appropriate warning on each emitter.
Product Overview
Description of BlueWave MX-Series Multichannel Controller
The BlueWave® MX Series multichannel controller, when combined with MX Series emitters, provides
manufacturers with the curing flexibility they need in a smaller more efficient design. The unit is comprised of two
main parts; a multichannel controller with an easy-to-use touchscreen interface and up to 4 high-intensity LED
emitters.
With this new controller
, the system can be truly tailored to users’ curing needs –
allowing them to choose from
any of the different emitter types and different wavelength LED emitters (365, 385, or 405 nm) in three cure
pattern formats; Spot, Mini-Flood and Line emission patterns. This flexibility ensures optimal cures are achieved
across a variety of bond-line geometries and fluid product offerings. Users also have greater set up flexibility; for
automated curing processes, the emitter can be mounted to robotic arms or further from the controller without
fear of intensity variations. When used as a bench-top curing system, the unit can be paired with a stand and
shielding for large area curing. It can also be used with multiple pathway lightguides for specialized applications
when paired with MX spot emitters.
MX Series controllers are available in two different model variants
–
a two channel (MX Series 2CH) that is capable
of independently controlling up to two emitters, and a four channel (MX Series 4CH) for up to four emitters.
