GENERAL SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
ADVERSE EFFECTS
If used properly, there are no known adverse effects of using the Gemini 810 + 980 diode laser. Please thoroughly read and understand all warning, precautions, and contra-indications in this manual
prior to use.
EYE AND SKIN PROTECTION
While the Gemini 810 + 980 diode laser is in use, doctors, system operators, auxiliary staff, patients, and anyone in the operatory must wear the appropriate safety eyewear that has been designed for use
with the wavelengths of 800 nm and higher that are associated with lasers. Eye protection must conform to Specification DIN EN207 Annex II of the Directive 89/686/EEC with optical density of OD+5 for
the wavelength range of 800 nm–1000 nm such as NoIR Laser Company filter model CYN.
Nominal Ocular Hazard Distance (NOHD) is the distance from the source of laser emission to the point where it no longer exceeds its Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE – highest level of laser radiation
to which a person may be exposed without hazardous effects or adverse biological changes in the eyes or skin). The Nominal Hazard Zone (NHZ) is the space within which the level of direct, reflected,
or scattered radiation during normal operation exceeds the appropriate MPEs. The outer limit of the NHZ is equal to the NOHD. The NOHD for persons wearing recommended safety glasses is shown in
Table 1 below.
EMERGENCY SHUTDOWN OPTIONS:
Perform any of these actions to terminate laser emissions in the event of a real or perceived emergency: (Figures: 2.10, 2.3, 2.7, 1.2 (Option: 12))
Press the emergensy "STOP" Button. (Figure: 1.2, Option: 14)
Press the "ON/OFF" button. (Figure: 1.2, Option: 15)
Remote interlock open circuit deactivates the Laser. (Figure: 1.4, Option: 5)
Touch the ACTIVE/STANDBY keypad selection. (Figure: 1.2, Option: 12)
Release your foot from the Activation Pedal. (Figure: 2.7)
