Epilog Laser Fusion Pro 48 User Manual

Laser Safety
The Epilog Model 16000 Laser System is a Class 2 laser product, as defined in International Standard IEC
60825-1.
The Epilog Model 16000 complies with 21 CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11, the Federal Peormance Standards for
Light-Emitting Products, except for deviations pursuant to Laser Notice No. 50, dated July 16, 2001. The Center
for Devices and Radiological Health, of the US FDA, issued Laser Notice No. 50 to permit manufacturers to
classify and manufacture their products in accordance with the International Standard.
The output of the embedded laser is fully contained. The laser cabinet has safety interlocks that turn
the laser o if any access door is opened during operation, and no special precautions are necessary
to operate the laser safely. Access doors are interlocked and can be opened without the use of a tool.
Any interlocked door that is opened while the machine is operating will immediately stop the laser from
firing.
Access panels are not interlocked and require a tool for opening or removal. Access panels should always
be installed when the laser is operating. Never operate the laser system with an access panel removed.
The visible output beam of the Laser Diode Pointer (Red Dot Pointer) is accessible to the operator. While
this device employs the same technology as the familiar laser pen-pointers, like them it is potentially
hazardous if its beam is directed into the eye.
We have made every eort to make the Laser Diode Pointer (Red Dot Pointer) as safe as possible. Its
beam path is located well inside the cabinet, and under normal conditions, no hazardous levels of laser
radiation can escape.
The operator of the Epilog Model 16000 should observe the following general precautions:
DO NOT disassemble the machine or remove any of its protective covers while the unit is plugged in.
DO NOT attempt to defeat the door interlocks.
DO NOT view directly into the beam of the Laser Diode Pointer (Red Dot Pointer).
DO NOT operate the Laser Diode Pointer (Red Dot Pointer) without the machine’s focus lens in place. If the
unfocused beam strikes a reflective suace, it could be directed out of the cabinet.
Caution – Use of controls or adjustments or peormance of procedures other than those specified herein
may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
