Ensure that the main switch as well as the plug of the power cable are easily accessible and located as close to
the operator of the instrument as possible. If it is necessary to disconnect the power supply, unplug the cable
from the power outlet.
The instrument should only be operated from a power source that meets the specifications mentioned on the
product's electrical ratings label. If you have questions about the type of power source to use, contact your
authorized Miltenyi Biotec service provider or local power company. Do not use extension cords or power
strips. Do not overload an electrical outlet.
Mechanical hazards
Moving and revolving parts are potential mechanical hazards.
Do not open the front access covers while the instrument is in operation. Do not obstruct the
movement of the robotic needle arm and accessory hardware during operation. There is a risk of
puncturing, crushing and shearing bodily parts. Keep fingers etc. away from all moving parts of the
instrument or accessory hardware. Do not circumvent any safety measures or devices.Do not touch
fluid pumps or adjust the tubing while the instrument is in operation. Always switch off the instrument before
adjusting any part of the fluidic system. Always stop or abort a procedure before handling accessory hardware,
e.g., MACSQuant X Orbital Shaker , or loading/removing tubes from the tube rack.
Optical radiation hazards
The MACSQuant X is classified as a Class 1 M laser product per standard IEC 60825-1.
The MACSQuant X is equipped with three Continous-Wave Lasers (laser class 3B). These lasers are secured by a
protective housing.
Do not remove the protective housing. Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures
other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
The instrument is equipped with four vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSEL) for automated rack
detection (Class 1M). The radiation is not visible.
Invisible laser radiation. Do not expose users of telescopic optics.
The instrument is equipped with a 2D code reader and with powerful light emitting diodes (LEDs) for
illuminating the reading area. Powerful LEDs are also used to illuminate the fluid bottles as well as the waste
bottle. According to the international standard IEC 62471, this lamp system has an exposure hazard value (EHV)
of 0.91 and is in excess of the Exempt Risk Group.
Do not look directly at laser or LED radiation or reflected laser or LED radiation from a mirrored
surface. Otherwise, eye injury may result. Do not direct the laser beam at others.
Be careful of the path of the light beam or reflection from a mirrored surface. Take care during installation of
the instrument that the path of the light beam is not at the same height as the human eye during operation.
Do not allow water, oil, dust or other foreign substances to stick to the 2D Code Reader aperture window. This
may cause reading errors. Be sure to stop the laser emission before cleaning the scanner. Otherwise, exposure
to the light may cause eye injury. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe any substances from the scanner. Do not use
alcohol or other cleaning substances.
