ALWAYS keep a properly-maintained and inspected fire extinguisher on hand. Epilog
recommends a carbon-dioxide fire extinguisher. Epilog advises against dry-chemical fire
extinguishers, because they discharge a corrosive powder which will severely damage the
engraver.
SAFETY FEATURES AND REGULATORY COMPLIANCE.
Epilog has incorporated specific safety features into the Radius Model 4000 Laser Engravers in
order to meet the requirements of 21 CFR 1040.10. These safety features are as follows:
A safety enclosure (cabinet) which fully encloses the engraving laser and its beam path.
Dual redundant interlock systems which turn off the engraving laser when either the cabinet
door or window is opened.
An audible emission indication on units having the Laser Diode Pointer option. The
engraver’s beeper sounds every five seconds when the pointer is on.
21 CFR 1040.10 requires that certification, identification, and warning labels be placed on laser
products. Reproductions (samples) of all such labels on the Radius Model 4000 Laser Engraver
follow, with their locations specified:
1)
Certification/Identification Label. This label is located on the right-hand side of the
