3. SAFE T Y NOTES
3.3.3.7 Note regarding the safety hazards in Sections
3.3.3.1 and Section 3.3.3.2
Important safety note
The overall responsibility for laser safety of the laser
microscope system assembled by you remains with you
as the responsible body, even if you use the microscopes
from Leica Microsystems CMS GmbH listed below in
conjunction. Within the context of your system composi-
tion and modifications, you have to verify whether the
component selected by you from this chapter is effec-
tive and suitable for your laser protection concept.
We recommend that for your laser applications you use
a microscope variant with the following selection options
because the microscope is already equipped with interlock
switches at the factory:
Leica No. 11889086
Laser Safety Kit
and also one of the following options:
Leica No. 11889077
Left motorized side port, 100% and interlock
Leica No. 11889078
Right motorized side port, 100% and interlock
Leica No. 11889079
Right/left motorized side port, 100% and interlock
Leica No. 11889087
Manual side port (100/0), Int.
Leica No. 11889088
Left manual side port (100/0)
Note:
The fixed Transmitted Light arm (order No. 11525105 (with
short cable) or order No. 11525116 (with long cable) is not
suitable for laser applications and therefore is not provided
for these applications.
a) Safety function for the safety hazard mentioned
in Section 3.3.3.1.
The special microscope variants have a built-in interlock
switch on the Transmitted Light arm that is activated when
folding back the Transmitted Light arm (interlock switch
opens).
The interlock connector of the microscope must be con-
nected to your laser beam interrupter, which interrupts the
laser beam coupled into the microscope when opening the
interlock switch or folding back the illumination arm.
b) Safety function for the safety hazard mentioned
in Section 3.3.3.2.
An additional interlock switch is also installed in the micro-
scope, which is activated (interlock switch opens) when
the beam path to the eyepiece is released.
The interlock switch of the microscope must be connected
to your laser beam interrupter, which interrupts the laser
beam coupled into the microscope when opening the in-
terlock switch or releasing the beam path towards the eye-
piece.
Please note that the laser radiation may not be coupled via
the bottom port!
Bottom port
Both interlock switches a) and b) are routed to a shared in-
terlock connector on the microscope; you have to connect
your laser beam interrupter to this connector.
