MAINTENANCE
12.1.
Overview
: It is strongly recommended the FELS-25A undergoes a yearly Preventive Maintenance
(PM) performed by an OmniGuide trained professional. While the laser itself is a standard CO2 laser
system, the fiber coupling, fiber mechanics, and any changes in its behavior can be easily overlooked
by personnel who are not familiar with the OmniGuide Beampath technology. Improper or
inadequate maintenance will lead to an increased probability of poor fiber performance and a
continual increase in fiber failures over time.
