IMPORTANT NOTE
A change of the aiming laser beam can be an indicator of a damaged beam
delivery system.
4.7 Gas Supply
The laser operates with pre-mixed, or „ArF-PREMIX“ gas. The capacity of one bottle is sufficient
for about 60 fills (30 fills with MLase laser source) at standard operation. After that time it is
expired and the gas bottle needs to be exchanged. The gas bottle must be changed by a
SCHWIND eye-tech solutions service engineer/technician or a trained service technician of a
SCHWIND dealer.
The noble gas mixture must be ordered directly from SCHWIND eye-tech solutions or the
responsible SCHWIND dealer to guarantee purity levels and strict check criteria.
Otherwise, damage to the system can occur. This is part of the Service and Maintenance
Agreement.
A gas change should be carried out when needed. The system will show message in case it is
recommended to perform a gas exchange or in case it is definitely required in order to work with
the system. Please perform a gas exchange in that case.
During the gas exchange the used gas is guided through a halogen filter to absorb the fluorine.
For additional information regarding the gas exchange – refer to chapter 7.9 Gas Exchange -
Excimer Laser.
IMPORTANT NOTE
Failure to follow these instructions will invalidate any guarantee or claim of
responsibility by SCHWIND eye-tech solutions.
