OPERATORY ACCESS DURING LASER USE
In addition to receiving proper training in the use of soft-tissue dental lasers, users should be familiar
and experienced with these procedures using electrosurgical devices or traditional instruments before
performing them on patients with the Gemini 810 + 980 diode laser. Non-experienced users should seek
appropriate training guidance before attempting clinical treatments with the Gemini laser unit.
In order to ensure the safe use of the Gemini 810 + 980 diode laser in your facility, please check to make
sure that the proposed location is compatible with the specifications listed below.
External AC/DC Power Supply:
Input Power - 110–120 VAC @ 60 Hz 700mA; 220-240 V AC @ 50Hz 350mA
Output Power – 6.0W + 13V DC at 4A maximum
Operating environmental conditions to be within 10°-40°C (50°-104°F), and 95% relative
humidity or less. Transportation and storage environmental conditions to be within
-20° to 50°C (-4° to 122°F), and relative humidity of 10% to 95% or less. Atmospheric pressure to be
within 50kPa–106kPa in operating, transportation and storage conditions.
All gases that are combustible or support combustion and are used in the operatory area where the
Gemini 810 + 980 diode laser is being operated must be turned off during the procedure. Cleaning
supplies or other flammable chemical compounds should be stored in an area away from the
surgical site in order to avoid possible combustion. Do not use in the presence of supplemental
therapeutic oxygen supplies for patients with respiratory or related diseases.
Plume evacuation should be addressed when vaporizing tissues. A high volume vacuum system
should be used and 0.1 micron or less high filtration masks that are suitable for virus and bacterial
control should be worn by clinicians.
Access to the treatment area should be restricted while the lasers are in use. A sign indicating
“LASER IN USE” should be placed in a designated area adjacent to the treatment area entry location.
