with the ‘In’ and ‘Out’ markings on the back of the laser.
Caution
Possible
Equipment
Damage
If you operate your laser or marking head in a
dirty or dusty environment, contact SYNRAD
about the risks of doing so and precautions
you can take to increase the longevity of your
laser, marking head, and associated optical
components.
The stability of the unit will be affected if the
water in/out is reversed!
Things to know:
Our lasers incorporate the following wetted materi-
als in the coolant path—nickel-plated brass, copper,
Acetal®, nitrile, Viton®, PBT, Delrin®, Polyethelene,
and stainless steel.
Avoid glycol-based additives because they reduce
the coolant’s heat capacity and high concentrations
may affect power stability. If you must use glycol,
do not add more than 10% by volume. See the
Operation and/or Technical Reference sections in
this Manual for detailed information. Glycol is not
necessary unless the chiller is subjected to freezing
temperatures.
Warning!
Serious Personal
Injury
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 SYNRAD, or the
optics manufacturer for handling instructions.
Do not exceed coolant
pressure of 414 kPa
(60 PSI)!
