Introduction

This section contains the following information:

•

Series 48 Trademark, Copyright & Warranty information

•

Series 48 guidelines and contents description

•

Series 48 Nomenclature

Important Note: This Operation Manual explains operation activities related to Series 48

lasers. If

you cannot operate the unit using the information described in this manual, contact NOVANTA®

(+1.425.349.3500) or an authorized NOVANTA Distributor.
The Quick Start Guide (QSG)

Quickstart

explains how to quickly unpack and assemble Series 48 lasers.

Please reference the QSG along with the information within this manual.
Lift the laser only by the mounting feet or baseplate. Do not lift or support the laser by its cooling fittings.
Please reference the Quick Start Guide for unpacking, mounting, and connecting.

Warning: Serious Personal Injury

Remote interlock faults are not latched on OEM lasers. Clearing the fault condition re-enables the

RDY indicator and the laser will bee enabled five seconds after the SHT indicator is lit and a PWM

Command signal is applied.
Because exposure to CO

2

laser radiation in the (9-11)

μ

m range can inflict severe corneal injuries and

seriously burn human tissue, the OEM or System Integrator must ensure that appropriate safeguards

are in place to prevent unintended lasing.

Caution: Possible Equipment Damage

NOVANTA does not recommend vertical or head down configurations.
Please contact the factory for limitations as a vertical orientation increases the risk of damage to the

lasers optics.
A risk of exposure

to toxic elements may result when certain optical or beam delivery components

are damaged. In the event of damage to laser, marking head, or beam delivery optics, contact

NOVANTA®, or the optics manufacturer for handling instructions.
If you operate your laser dirty or dusty environments, contact NOVANTA about the risks of doing

so and precautions you can take to increase the longevity of your laser, marking head, and associated

optical components.
