Notes on safety

1.1

General

Please make yourself familiar with the contents
of these operating instructions before
attaching and starting up the components for
3D microscopy. Additional information is
available from our maintenance service or from
authorized agencies.

For the function of 3D microscopy in
combination with the

Axiotron 2

Axiotech 100

Axiotech 100 vario

Axiovert 100/135/135 M

Axiovert 25 CA

Axioplan 2/Axiophot 2

Axioskop

Axioskop 2

please see the operating instructions of these
microscopes.
When using video components from KAPPA,
please comply with the supplied manual 

"Color

TV camera for microscopy and 3D images"

.

Special regard must be paid to the notes on
instrument safety included in this manual.

To guarantee the safe operation and function
of the components for 3D microscopy, it is
necessary under any circumstances to take the
precaution measures and observe the warnings
contained in the operating instructions.

The following symbols are used for the
warnings:

Caution!

Non-observance of the safety notes constitutes
a hazard for the user.

Caution!

Non-observance of the safety notes constitutes
a hazard for the instrument.

Caution!

Disconnect the instrument from the line before
opening it.

Note!

Notes which must be observed.

1.2

Regulations concerning
instrument safety and
electromagnetic
compatibility (EMC)

The components for 3D microscopy have been
designed and tested in compliance with EN
61010, Part 1 (VDE 0411). From the safety
viewpoint, they left the factory in a perfect
state.

They meet the requirements of the EC directive
89/336/EC and the EMC legislation of
November 9th 1992 and the legal regulations
for accident prevention.

The components for 3D microscopy meet the
EC requirements and are CE-labelled.
