Verdi V-2/V-5/V-6 Laser Preinstallation Manual The laser head is shipped with a protective plastic plate installed over the baseplate. Leave the plastic plate in place until laser head is ready for installation. 1. Remove the packing material from the riser/heat sink (Figure 1-2). 2. Insert two dowel pins (Figure 1-1 , item 12) into the riser/heat sink dowel holes (Figure 1-2, item 1), ball-end up. Avoid damage to the laser head baseplate, which is milled to a flatness of ± 0.1 mm.

Proceed to the paragraph titled, “Installing the Power Supply”. The riser/heat sink clamps and chiller connection will be installed during the final installation procedures. 1. Move the power supply to an accessible-friendly location, preferably away from heat producing sources.
Verdi V-2/V-5/V-6 Laser Preinstallation Manual Each customer must inspect the power cord and install the proper connector if necessary. The connector should be installed in a properly grounded outlet with a maximum of 10 Ampere service @ 110 V and 11 Ampere service @ 220 V for proper overcurrent and earth fault protection. 4. Final Installation and Initial Turn-On Procedures Proceed to the paragraph titled, “Final Installation and Initial Turn-On Procedures”.
Verdi V-2/V-5/V-6 Laser Preinstallation Manual 7. External Interlock Perform the procedure in paragraph titled, “Turn-on (Cold-Start)” in the Operator’s Manual. The system will not operate with the interlock open. An interlock connector is located on the power supply rear panel. The interlock status is monitored by the CPU. If the interlock is open, the message, “External Interlock Fault” will be displayed on the power supply front panel.
Verdi V-2/V-5/V-6 Laser Preinstallation Manual 5. The interlock circuit in Verdi operates from a +/-12 VDC circuit. Its current is limited to around 1 mA. For these ratings, a “dry-circuit” type switch will give the most reliable operation.
