1.2.2 Safety Measures and Guards
The 2000X aed Actuator, along with its 2000X aed Power Supply, contains software-
controlled electronic safety devices intended to prevent the machine from operating in a
fashion harmful to the user. Start Switch and Emergency Stop controls are designed to
prevent undesirable startup.
1.2.3 Emissions
When being processed, certain plastic materials can emit toxic fumes, gases or other
emissions that can be hazardous to the operator’s health. Where such materials are
processed, proper ventilation of the workstation is required. Check your materials
suppliers for recommended protection when processing their materials.
1.2.4 Setting up the Workplace
Measures for setting up a workplace for safe operation of the ultrasonic welder are
outlined in Chapter 4: Installation and Setup and in the 2000-series Installation Guide.
1.2.5 Regulatory Compliance
The Branson 2000X aed actuator and converter receive their power and control from a
2000X- series power supply, and together make up a system. The 2000X power supply is
designed for compliance with the following regulatory and agency standards:
• ANSI Z535.1 Safety Color Code
• ANSI Z535.3 Criteria for Safety Symbols
• ANSI Z535.4 Product Safety Signs and Labels
• BS EN ISO 12100-1, -2 Safety of Machinery - Basic concepts, general guidelines for design

medical radio-frequency equipment
• EN 60204-1 Safety of Machinery - Electrical Equipment of machines
• EN 60529 Degrees of protection provided by enclosure
• EN 60664-1 Insulation coordination for equipment within low-voltage systems
• EN 61000-3-3 Electromagnetic Compatibility - Limitations of voltage fluctuations and flicker in
low voltage supply systems (for European products that draw less than 1000 watts from the line
at full rated power)
• EN 61000-6-2 Electromagnetic Compatibility - Generic standards - Immunity for industrial
environments
• EN 61310-2 Safety of Machinery - Indication, marking, actuation
• NFPA 70 National Electrical Code Article 670 Industrial Machinery
• NFPA 79 Electrical Standard for Industrial Machinery
• 29 CFR 1910.212 OSHA General Requirements for all machines
• 47 CFR Part 18 Federal Communication Commission
CAUTION
Processing of many materials, such as PVC, can be hazardous to an
operator’s health and could cause corrosion/damage to the
equipment. Use proper ventilation and take protective measures.
