WARNING
General Precautions
The output beam from the EQ-400 should be blocked when not in use with an electronic
shutter or other appropriate beam blocking device. Due to the possibility of generating ozone
with some models of EQ-400 when ambient oxygen is exposed to short wavelength light, the
beam should always be enclosed in an appropriate beam pipe, tube, or enclosed space. We
suggest purging any beam transport space with dry nitrogen gas.
The EQ-400 source must also be cabled correctly and connected to a power source with a
protective earth ground prior to operation.
Refer to the Installation section of this manual in Chapter 3 for details of the facilities
connections.
There are no user-serviceable parts inside the EQ-400. For any problems encountered during
operation, please contact Energetiq Technology for assistance.
If there is a component
failure, do not attempt to open the Power/Control Unit or Lamp House enclosure of
the EQ-400.
No regular maintenance is required for the EQ-400. Any service to the system must be
performed only by factory authorized and trained technicians. To avoid injury, under no
circumstances should the user open or modify the Lamp House or Power/Control Unit
enclosure.
The unit must not be operated if the covers are removed or it is defective in any way. Contact
Energetiq if any problems with the equipment are suspected.
The EQ-400 utilizes a quartz lamp containing a high-pressure gas fill. Explosion of
the lamp and possible injury from flying fragments can occur if the lamp is
mishandled.
Do not open the enclosure of either the Lamp House or the Power/Control Unit.
Dangerous invisible infrared laser beams and hazardous voltages exist inside the
Lamp House. Opening the chassis both voids the warranty and exposes the user to
dangerous radiation and hazardous voltages.
The EQ-400 utilizes an internal Class 4 IR laser
capable of causing severe injury to eyes or skin.
Do not open or attempt to service this unit.
Contact Energetiq regarding any problems with
the unit.
