i401 nomenclature
i401 lasers are divided into two distinct functional categories: Key switch and OEM models. OEM lasers,
like the i401, do not incorporate key switch or shutter functions required by CDRH and EN 60825- 1
regulations because they are designed as components for integration into larger processing systems by
the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) or System Integrator who bears full responsibility for
meeting the appropriate laser safety requirements for systems incorporating Class 4 lasers.
Although i401 lasers are available only as OEM lasers, they do include a built-in electromechanical shutter
assembly.
Model numbers
The last three characters in the i401 model number serve to designate the functional category, cooling
method, and model version. The functional category is indicated by either a “K” for Key switch or “S”
(Switch-less) for OEM models. The next letter indicates the cooling method: “W” for water-cooled units,
“F” for fan-cooled units, and “A” for air-cooled lasers (the cooling method, the “W,” is omitted on all i401
lasers since they are all water-cooled lasers). The last letter in the model number indicates the current
model version beginning with “B.”

Incoming inspection
Upon arrival, inspect all shipping containers for signs of damage. If you discover shipping damage,
document the damage (photographically if possible), then immediately notify the shipping carrier and
Novanta, Inc.
The shipping carrier is responsible for any damage occurring during transportation from Novanta, Inc. to
your receiving dock.
