5-2 Installation
Site Considerations
Have the following available when the Spectra-Physics service engineer arrives:
A stable mounting platform that can handle a 130 lb. (60 kg) laser head
A mounting platform with 1/4-20 or M6 threaded mounting holes; see Figure 1-3
for mounting hole locations
100–120 V~/200–240 V~, 50/60 Hz electrical service for the IPS-300 power supply
and the ThermoRack
401 chiller
Figure 5-1 Electrical plugs
Room to place the rackmounted power supply and chiller within 6 ft. (2 m) of the
laser head
Only use a power cord with adequate rating. The connection to the power supply inlet
connector is the mains disconnect. Keep the area around the back of the power supply
clear so that you can pull the main cord if needed. This requirement is independent of
the 6
in. (15 cm) clearance requirement for cooling of power supply.
Both the power supply and chiller are air cooled and rackmounted, and they require at
least 6
in. (15 cm) of clearance at the rear of each unit for proper cooling.
The power supply, chiller, and laser head together produce less than 1500 W (5 kBTU
per hour) of waste heat. Provide enough room cooling capacity to prevent the system
from over-heating.
Keep the shipping containers. If you file a damage claim, you may need the containers
to demonstrate that the damage occurred as a result of shipping. If you need to return the
system for service at a later date, the specially designed containers assure adequate
protection.
Chiller Requirements
A ThermoRack 401 chiller is provided with the InSight X3 laser system to supply
coolant to the laser head.
Appendix D, “Nalco MSDS,” contains the material safety data sheet (MSDS) for the
Nalco product. Be sure to follow the safety measures listed in this document when
transporting and using the Nalco product. The service engineer installing your system
Always fill and maintain the chiller reservoir with full strength
Nalco 460-PCCL104 liquid corrosion inhibitor. Do not use
deionized water.
