System Preparation and Setup
Norlase certified personnel will perform the initial installation and setup. The
instruction of User’s staff to setup the device will be part of the initial in-service
training.
Norlase Leaf is intended for use by trained Ophthalmologists for diagnosis and
treatment of ocular pathology in both the posterior and anterior segments. The
system is designed for installation on a compatible slit lamp and use in a darkened
office or surgery room. Optimal system performance and viewing is achieved in low
ambient light conditions.
Norlase Leaf power supply is equipped with a 3-wire AC power cord. When selecting
the location for system installation, ensure that the AC wall power outlet is correctly
grounded. Follow local electrical codes to ensure proper grounding of the AC wall
power outlet. A correctly grounded power connection is required for safe system
operation.
Select an appropriate location that can accommodate the system size and allow for
easy access by both the patient and the physician. Ensure proper ventilation,
temperature and relative humidity. Select a well-ventilated space in an office or
surgery room. Proper system operation requires temperatures between 15°C (59°F)
and 35°C (95°F), with relative humidity between 20% and 85% non-condensing.
Position the system to aim the treatment beam away from windows and doors. Post a
laser safety sign at the entrance to the treatment room.
Do not block cooling airflow or cooling vents on the laser system. Allow at least 5 cm
(2 in) of clear space around the laser system to provide adequate system cooling
airflow. Use care when routing system cables to prevent a tripping hazard and to
protect the optical fiber from damage by being crushed under foot or being rolled over
by a chair. If the cord must cross a floor where there is traffic, use of a floor cord/cable
cover is recommended.
