1. Introduction
The TLS-EQ-77H Laser Driven Tunable Light Source is a compact, highly stable tunable light source. It
utilizes the Energetiq EQ-77 Laser Driven Light Source® as a broadband light source. A monochromator is
used to select the desired output wavelength. The monochromator output is fiber coupled to the TLS-
EQ77H output.
The TLS-EQ77H system consists of a Power Supply Controller unit, Lamp House unit, Remote Control Unit,
Monochromator Power Supply, and interconnecting cables. Connections to AC power, nitrogen purge gas,
and cooling fluid are required for operation.

2. Safety instructions
2.1. General Precautions
The output beam from the TLS-EQ-77H 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
TLS-EQ-77H 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 TLS-EQ-77H 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 Section 4 for details of the facilities connections.
There are no user-serviceable parts inside the TLS-EQ-77H. 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 Supply Controller or Lamp House enclosure of the TLS-EQ-77H.
The TLS-EQ-77H 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 Supply Controller. 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.
This AC cord supplied is for the TLS-EQ-77H only. This AC cord cannot be used with other electrical
equipment.
The power shutdown mechanism of this laser unit is the AC power plug. Do not arrange the
equipment in such a way that it becomes difficult to connect or disconnect the AC power plug.
