There are hot surfaces on the HBO and HAL lamp.
The HBO 50 and HBO 100 W, XBO 75 W, X-Cite 120 and HXP 120 lamps used on the light
microscopes incident light path emit UV light which is harmful to the human eye and skin when
observed without appropriate filters. Never remove the lamp and look direct into the emitted
light of the lamp.
After installation or conversion of the LSM system, authorized specialized staff must carefully check that it
is in a proper condition and, particularly, that covers protecting against laser radiation are provided.
Tube openings or other unused mounts should always be protected against dust and moisture with the
corresponding device components or with termination covers/blind plugs.
By establishing a corresponding workplace environment, please ensure that the formation of electrostatic
charges is avoided.
To avoid vibrations during operation, the LSM 880 system should only be operated in conjunction with
the system table (vibration damping).
