The welding processes produce fumes and gases. Inhaling them can be hazardous to health.
Keep the head away from the fumes. Do not inhale the fumes. Do not cover the vents on the equipment. Carefully read the
instructions supplied concerning the various types of metals, detergents and protection gases. The equipment should ideally be
installed in a large, specially dedicated room. If the room is small, ensure that it is sufficiently ventilated. The protection gases used
for melting can gradually saturate the air causing discomfort or death. Do not weld in the proximity of areas used for degreasing,
cleaning or spraying. The heat could react with the vapours, producing toxic and irritant gases. Make sure that the metals do not
have impurities such to cause fumes or gases during melting. Envision the use of an auxiliary extractor system or, alternatively, the
use of a face mask.
LASER welding can cause fire or explosion.
The sparks produced during welding can escape and cause fire or burns. It is prohibited to introduce inflammable gases and liquids
into the welding chamber. Cylinders and objects containing highly flammable gases or liquids should be moved a safe distance away
from the welding chamber.

Protections
All the safety measures that consist in the use of specific technical means (guards, safety devices) to protect persons from hazards that cannot be
reasonably limited through design are considered as protections.
Tampering with protections or any modification of the equipment can cause risks for the users and for other exposed persons.
Interlock contact
Description
The interlock is a switch with normally closed contact, which must be positioned on the access door/s to the
premiseswhere the equipment is located.The electric connectionsof the switch are shown in the figure below.
Purpose
The interlock contact is used to prevent LASER operation where the safety standards envision the same. This
safety device is mandatory if operating with the welding chamber open or when the welding chamber bottom
is removed. A blind interlock connector is supplied for use of the equipment with welding chamber bottom
inserted and in normal operating conditions.
Operation
When the contact opens, all normal equipment operations are blocked and a warning message is displayed on
the screen, until the contact is restored.
The male DE-9 connector (OME00192) with case (RS000080) is supplied with the equipment; cables and switches are not supplied.
Leather barrier
Description
Several layers of strips of leather form a mobile and permanent barrier at the access aperture to the welding
chamber, through which the operator can introduce his hands and the manufactured products to be welded.
Purpose
The set-up of this safety device is made necessary in order to preventevery possible leak of radiation from the
welding chamber, prevent the exposure of the operator or persons nearby to the product flashes during the
welding operationsand preventthe easy leakage of any protection gases used.
Operation
The leather barrier, which blocks the passage of LASER radiation, can be easily replaced if most of the strips
should be damaged through use, be bent, broken or cut.
Resonator shutter
Description
This device consists of motor-driven flag and is located inside the LASER resonator system. The shutter intervenes
by cutting off the LASER beam path within the resonator when the welder is in stand-
by or in the event of an
anomaly.
Purpose
This device prevents the generation of unwanted LASER radiation.
Operation
The shutter is activated when the power supply is turned on, before the equipment is activated.
On activation, the shutter clears the LASER path, and the equipment is ready for normal operation. A microprocessor
control checks that the shutter is disabled in a timely manner: any anomalies are indicated by a warning on the
display.
When the equipment is turned off, the shutdown procedure is performed, which closes the shutter; a check is then
performed to ensure correct closure. Any anomalies will always be signalled on the display.
Resonator shutter movements are detected by an infra-red sensor controlled by the movement of the motor shaft.
The breakdown of this infra-red sensor is detected by the microprocessor, which puts the system in the alarm mode,
preventing normal operation of the equipment and highlighting the anomaly with relevant wording on the display.
The breakdown of the motor or its control driver is detected by the microprocessor by checking the ON/OFF
movement implementation times of the flag and is highlighted on the display by relevant warnings.

our eyes. It is inside the microscope.
Purpose
This filter protects the operator's eyes from leaks of LASER radiation along the optical path of the microscope.
Operation
Since it is opaque at the wavelength of 1.064 nm, it prevents the passage of LASER radiation.
Welding chamber infra-red filter
Description
This filter is a 1.064 nm optical glass that is opaque to LASER radiation. It appears transparent light green to our
eyes in compliance with the BS EN 207 and BS EN 208 Standards classified as OD6 for protection 800-1090 DIR
LB6. It constitutes the inspection window of the welding chamber and can be replaced if broken.
Purpose
This filter protects the operator's eyes from the LASER radiation during normal operation of the equipment and
allows the manufactured products to be inspected in complete safety.
Operation
Since it is opaque at the wavelength of 1.064 nm, it prevents the passage of LASER radiation.
Emergency button
Description
The emergency button is a red mushroom-shaped switch. It is positioned in a point of the equipment that is
easy to access by the user.
Purpose
It stops the equipment immediately and must be used in the event of danger for the operator or equipment.
Operation
It removes the power supply to all electric/electronic parts of the equipment, switching it off immediately.
Enabling key/PIN
Description
It is an enabling switch with key or, alternatively, an electronic PIN.
Purpose
To prevent operation of the equipment by unauthorised personnel.
Operation
Once the key has been turned or the PIN entered,the equipment starts, loading the internal circuits and enabling
LASER emission.
Hazardous areas and residual risks
Hazardous Area is defined as any area within or near the equipment where a person is exposed to injury or health damage. There are some
residual risks to the operator during certain equipment procedures. These risks can be eliminated by following the basic rules of work and behaviour
or, more specifically, the procedures in this manual, adopting the personal protection equipment as indicated.
