Specific Safety Considerations
The
BlueWave
MX-Series curing systems
are designed to maximize operator safety and minimize exposure to light-
curing energy. To use the unit
safely, it must be set up and operated in accordance with the instructions in this and
the respective emitter user guide. Please also read and understand the safety considerations unique to LED-curing
systems as described below.
WARNING!
The controller is cooled by natural convection. If you block the air flow from the controller,
equipment damage and malfunction can result. To prevent damage and malfunction, ensure adequate
space around controller vents to allow the free flow of air. Typically, 1.5 in (38 mm) of space around all
sides of the controller is sufficient.
Dymax UV Light-Curing General Safety Considerations
