A. Foreword
1. Appreciation
ThankyouforchoosingLS100IQEXEnergy-Gravograph.
Gravotech is pleased to count you among the users of its engraving and traceability solutions.
For help, contact Gravotech.
For more information on products, visit www.gravograph.com website.
2. Information
To ensure security and productivity, read this manual before starting-up the equipment.
It provides details about the installation and use of the equipment.
Keep this manual in case you need to refer to it.
Fortheattentionofusershavinganindividualcardiacassistdevice󰄈tted:
Our equipment is designed and manufactured with the greatest care in order to
guarantee their compliance with the EMC Directive currently in force. This means
that the levels of electromagnetic emissions produced by this equipment when in
operationarelimitedanddonotexceedthethresholdsde󰄈nedbytheDirective.
However, multiple factors make it impossible to guarantee the total absence of risk
forusershavingacardiacassistdevice󰄈tted.Consequently,itisrecommendedthat
standing for a prolonged period within less than 1 m (3.281 ft) of an operating machine
should be avoided.

TheLS100IQ/EXisanengraving,markingandcuttingmachineequippedwithaCO2lasersource.Thelaser
sources are air cooled.
TheLS100ENERGY/EXENERGYisanengraving,markingandcuttingmachineequippedwithaCO2laser
source with a high voltage supply and a water-cooled glass tube. A water chiller is supplied.
Thistypeoflasero󰘯ersveryhighqualitymarkingonawiderangeofmaterials.
2. Identi󰘰cationofthemarkingequipment
Themarkingequipmentisidenti󰘰edby:
• 1identi󰘰cationplateontherearface
HavethemodelandserialnumberoftheequipmentavailablewhencontactingGravotech.
3. Workstationsafety
• Turno󰘯themachinebeforebeginninganycleaning,maintenanceorrepairprocedure.
• Never operate the machine without the protective covers properly mounted.
• Never operate the machine if the doors are damaged or do not close properly.
Air extraction system
• Neveroperatethemachinewithoutafumeandgasextractionsystemthatisproperlycon󰄈gured,
installed and maintained in good working order.
• The gases and fumes from the marking process must be extracted from the machine and discharged
outside.

Introduction
Water chiller - only for ENERGY machines
Never operate the LS100 ENERGY/EX ENERGY machine without a properly operating water
chillerthatiscorrectlycon󰄈gured,installedandmaintainedingoodworkingorder.
In order to protect the chiller pump, it is strictly prohibited to operate it without
demineralisedwaterinthetank.Toavoiddamagingthepump,itisimportantto󰄈llthe
tankbeforeusingitforthe󰄈rsttime.
• Itisimportanttocheckthatthedemineralisedwaterlevelisalwaysadequate.Coolingcapacitybeginsto
decline when the demineralised water level falls below the green area (NORMAL) on the gauge.
• Neverdrainthewatertankwhilethechillerisinoperation.
• Ensurethattheairintakeandairoutletarewellventilated.Theremustbeaclearanceofatleast8cm
(3.150in)attheairintakeandof30cm(11.811in)attheairoutlet.
• Beware of water condensation. In areas of higher ambient humidity and when the temperature of the water
is below room temperature, condensation forms on the water pipes and cooled components. In this event,
it is advisable to increase the water temperature or to warm up the pipes and cooled components.

M_LS100IQ EX Energy_EN_C
Introduction
Handling the machine
• Never move or lift the machine without the assistance of lifting rings and an appropriate vehicle. Serious
injurycanoccurifincorrectliftingtechniquesareused.
• The head must be handled with the greatest care.
• In the event of an extended period of non-use, unplug the power cable and protect the machine.
• Never move the head manually unless the machine is jammed mechanically.
• Neverpourorspillliquidonthemachine(drinks,cleaningproducts,etc.)exceptwhererecommendedby
Gravotech (example: lubrication).

F. Unpacking
The machine should be carried in its packaging using a lifting system that can lift 300 kg
(661.387 lb) or more.
1. Unpacking
Only for ENERGY machines:
1. Cut and remove the straps holding the 2 parcel(s) together (water chiller)- (LS100 ENERGY/EX

Personnel safety
THIS MACHINE HAS A CLASS 4 LASER BOXED IN A CLASS 1 CASING. THIS MACHINE IS CONSIDERED
AS CLASS 2M DUE TO ITS VISIBLE DIODE LASER (Red).
• The machine is considered as Class 1 when the door is closed. In this case, the security enclosure of the
LS100IQ/EX/ENERGY islocked andsealed against potential Laser radiationemissions undernormal
workingandsafetyconditions.Themodi󰘰cationoflockingsystems,ortheremovalofthesesystemsorlabels
designedforsafety,willresultinexposuretohazardsfromtheLaserbeam.Anymodi󰘰cationisprohibited.
TheLS100IQ/EX/ENERGYisclosed,lockedandlabelledtoensurethatitworksincompletesafety.The
labels and security devices must not be removed or concealed by the operator.
• ThemachineisconsideredasClass2Mwhenthedoorisopened(emissionpowerequaltoorlessthan1
mW).Inthiscase,thesecurityshutterintheLasermoduleclosestoavoidanyriskofLaseremission.The
markingcanonlybecarriedoutifthedoorisclosed.
Ifthemachineisbeingintegrated,theinstallerisresponsibleforensuringthe󰄈nalequipmentconforms
to current legislation. Observe EN 60825-1 standard concerning the controls and signage (access
panels, doors, emergency stops...). Example: application of safety pictograms, installation of suitable
guards, use of the electrical safety channel provided on the equipment (non-exhaustive list).
Only trained personnel aware of the risks posed by the machine are authorized to use it. Only Gravotech
personnel, or persons authorized by Gravotech may service the elements that constitute the marking
machine. Any intervention by unauthorized third party would exclude Gravotech's liability.
Laser radiation is invisible, but exposure, direct or scattered, is hazardous to skin and eyes.
Donotusethismarkingequipmentinanexplosiveenvironment.Noin󰄉ammablematerialshouldbe
locatedwithinthemachineenclosurenearthere󰄉ectedbeam(operator'sshirt,curtains,wallcovering
innon-syntheticmaterial:󰄈rehazard).Forsafetyreasons,neveroperatethemachinewithoutconstant
surveillance.
Thislasercanproducedangerousdi󰓐usere󰄉ections.Itmayleadtoskinandeyeinjuriesaswellas
a󰄈rerisk.Itsuserequiresextremecaution.Fire preventionandprotectionequipmentistheuser's
responsibility. Do not look at the Laser beam continuously when marking, even through the protective
glass. The light intensity may strain the eye.
The ENERGY laser sources must be cooled by means of a water chiller with the capability to control a
minimum󰄉owandamaximumwatertemperature.Donotmodifyordisablethechiller'ssafetydevices.
