Safety Precautions
4
6. Heat from the light source (when using the ECLIPSE 50i)
The lamp and surrounding areas (including the lamphouse) will become very hot during and
immediately after a period of illumination.
• Risk of burns. Never touch the lamp or surrounding areas during or immediately after a period of
illumination
• Always attach the lamphouse cover when using the product.
• Make sure the lamp and surrounding areas have cooled sufficiently before attempting to replace the
lamp
• To avoid risk of fire, do not place fabric, paper or highly flammable volatile materials such as
gasoline, petroleum benzine, paint thinner or alcohol near the lamphouse while the lamp is lit or
during a period of around thirty minutes after the lamp has been turned off.
7. Mercury lamps and xenon lamps (when the J-FL 50i55i Epi-fluorescence attachment is attached)
The mercury lamp (or xenon lamp) used for J-FL 50i55i Epi-fluorescence attachment requires special
care during handling. For safe and correct use of this system, carefully read the warnings below. Keep
in mind all potential hazards. Additionally, carefully read the manual for the super high-pressure
mercury lamp power supply (or high-intensity light source) and the manual (if provided) from the lamp
manufacturer, then follow the instructions given therein.
Hazards of mercury lamps and xenon lamps
1) When lit, mercury (and xenon) lamps radiate ultraviolet light that can damage the eyes and skin.
Direct viewing of the light may result in blindness.
2) The lamps contain sealed gas under very high pressure, pressure that increases when the lamp is on.
If the lamp is scratched, fouled, subjected to high external pressure or physical impact, or used
beyond its service life, the sealed gas may escape or the lamp may burst, resulting in gas inhalation,
injury from glass, or other injury.
3) When the lamp is lit, the lamp and surroundings will become extremely hot. Touching the lamp with
bare hands may result in burns; flammable materials placed near the lamp may ignite.
4) Using the wrong lamp type may result in accidents, including bursting of the lamp.
Safety is a top design priority for Nikon products. The preceding hazards should pose no danger as
long as the user observes all of the warnings and cautions given in the manuals, and uses the system
only for its intended purpose.
However, failure to heed the warnings and cautions given in the manuals, subjecting the system to
shock or impact, or attempting to disassemble the system may result in accidents and injury. Make
sure you are familiar with and adhere to all warnings and cautions.
8. Always turn off the lamp when changing filter cubes
(when the J-FL 50i55i Epi-fluorescence attachment is attached to the product).
When changing filter cubes, always turn off the light source of the Epi-fl attachment. Leaving the lamp
on may result in ultraviolet exposure.
9. Hazardous sample
This product is intended primarily for microscopic observations and image capture of cells and tissue
set on glass slides.
Check to determine whether a sample is hazardous before handling.
Handle hazardous samples according to the standard procedure specified for your laboratory. If the
sample is potentially infectious, wear rubber gloves and avoid touching samples. If contact occurs
between a sample and the product, decontaminate the contaminated portion according to the standard
procedure specified for your laboratory.
