Model and
Support
Materials
Model ȱ and ȱ support ȱ materials ȱ are ȱ made ȱ of ȱ chemical ȱ substances. ȱ Although ȱ
precautions ȱ must ȱ be ȱ taken ȱ when ȱ handling ȱ these ȱ materials ȱ directly, ȱ all ȱ
model ȱ and ȱ support ȱ materials ȱ used ȱ by ȱ the ȱ Stratasys ȱ system ȱ are ȱ handled ȱ in ȱ
sealed ȱ cartridges. ȱ Normally, ȱ operators ȱ of ȱ the ȱ printer ȱ should ȱ never ȱ be ȱ
directly ȱ exposed ȱ to ȱ hazardous ȱ materials. ȱ In ȱ the ȱ unlikely ȱ event ȱ of ȱ a ȱ leak ȱ or ȱ
spill, ȱ follow ȱ the ȱ instructions ȱ that ȱ are ȱ included ȱ with ȱ the ȱ printing Ȭ material ȱ
cartridge ȱ used.
¾
Store ȱ model ȱ and ȱ support ȱ materials ȱ indoors, ȱ in ȱ a ȱ dry ȱ area ȱ with ȱ adequate ȱ
ventilation, ȱ between ȱ 16 Ȭ 27 ȱ degrees ȱ Celsius ȱ (60 Ȭ 81 ȱ degrees ȱ Fahrenheit). ȱ
Never ȱ expose ȱ them ȱ to ȱ flames, ȱ heat, ȱ sparks, ȱ or ȱ direct ȱ sunlight.
¾
Keep ȱ model ȱ and ȱ support ȱ materials ȱ away ȱ from ȱ areas ȱ where ȱ food ȱ and ȱ
drink ȱ are ȱ stored, ȱ prepared ȱ and ȱ consumed.
¾
Uncured ȱ printing ȱ material ȱ is ȱ considered ȱ a ȱ hazardous ȱ substance, ȱ
requiring ȱ certain ȱ precautions ȱ when ȱ directly ȱ handling ȱ it. ȱ To ȱ prevent ȱ skin ȱ
irritation, ȱ wear ȱ neoprene ȱ or ȱ nitrile ȱ gloves. ȱ If ȱ there ȱ is ȱ any ȱ chance ȱ that ȱ
model ȱ and ȱ support ȱ materials ȱ might ȱ splash ȱ into ȱ the ȱ eyes, ȱ wear ȱ safety ȱ
goggles. ȱ Prolonged ȱ direct ȱ contact ȱ with ȱ printing ȱ materials ȱ can ȱ cause ȱ an ȱ
allergic ȱ reaction.
¾
When ȱ handling ȱ UV Ȭ cured ȱ models ȱ that ȱ may ȱ not ȱ be ȱ completely ȱ cured ȱ on ȱ
the ȱ surface, ȱ common ȱ latex ȱ gloves ȱ are ȱ adequate. ȱ
¾
To ȱ prevent ȱ respiratory ȱ irritation, ȱ ventilate ȱ areas ȱ where ȱ model ȱ and ȱ
support ȱ materials ȱ are ȱ used. ȱ If ȱ the ȱ printer ȱ is ȱ not ȱ equipped ȱ with ȱ an ȱ
exhaust ȱ duct, ȱ the ȱ room ȱ ventilation ȱ system ȱ should ȱ replace ȱ the ȱ air ȱ at ȱ least ȱ
20 ȱ times ȱ per ȱ hour. ȱ
¾
Clean ȱ up ȱ model Ȭ material ȱ and ȱ support Ȭ material ȱ spills ȱ with ȱ disposable ȱ
towels ȱ or ȱ other ȱ absorbent, ȱ non Ȭ reusable ȱ material, ȱ such ȱ as ȱ sawdust ȱ or ȱ
activated ȱ charcoal. ȱ Rinse ȱ the ȱ spill ȱ area ȱ with ȱ denatured ȱ or ȱ isopropyl ȱ
alcohol ȱ (IPA), ȱ followed ȱ by ȱ soap ȱ and ȱ water. ȱ Dispose ȱ of ȱ the ȱ absorbent ȱ
material ȱ in ȱ accordance ȱ with ȱ local ȱ regulations.
¾
Do ȱ not ȱ wash ȱ contaminated ȱ clothing ȱ at ȱ home; ȱ clothing ȱ should ȱ be ȱ
professionally ȱ laundered.
¾
Dispose ȱ of ȱ contaminated ȱ shoes, ȱ belts ȱ and ȱ other ȱ leather ȱ items ȱ in ȱ
accordance ȱ with ȱ any ȱ applicable ȱ regulations. ȱ Absorbed ȱ printing ȱ
material ȱ may ȱ re Ȭ expose ȱ the ȱ user ȱ when ȱ these ȱ items ȱ are ȱ worn.
UV Lamps
UV ȱ lamps ȱ used ȱ by ȱ the ȱ printer ȱ to ȱ cure ȱ printing ȱ materials ȱ contain ȱ a ȱ small ȱ
amount ȱ of ȱ mercury. ȱ In ȱ the ȱ unlikely ȱ event ȱ of ȱ lamp ȱ breakage, ȱ avoid ȱ inhaling ȱ
mercury ȱ vapor, ȱ and ȱ ventilate ȱ the ȱ room. ȱ If ȱ the ȱ lamp ȱ ruptures ȱ (breaks) ȱ
during ȱ operation, ȱ leave ȱ the ȱ room ȱ and ȱ ventilate ȱ it ȱ thoroughly ȱ (for ȱ about ȱ 30 ȱ
minutes). ȱ
Use ȱ protective ȱ gloves ȱ to ȱ prevent ȱ contact ȱ with ȱ mercury ȱ and ȱ other ȱ lamp ȱ
components. ȱ Carefully ȱ remove ȱ spilled ȱ mercury ȱ with ȱ a ȱ method ȱ that ȱ
prevents ȱ the ȱ generation ȱ of ȱ mercury ȱ vapor, ȱ such ȱ as ȱ a ȱ syringe, ȱ packing ȱ tape ȱ
or ȱ paper. ȱ
Place ȱ the ȱ broken ȱ lamp, ȱ mercury ȱ and ȱ contaminated ȱ materials ȱ in ȱ an ȱ air Ȭ tight, ȱ
non Ȭ metallic ȱ container. ȱ Dispose ȱ of ȱ the ȱ container ȱ in ȱ accordance ȱ with ȱ
applicable ȱ regulations.
