SAFETY
2.1 Introduction
Caution
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures
other than those specified herein may result in hazardous
radiation exposure. Therefore, personnel operating the AcuPulse
system must be thoroughly familiar with all its safety
requirements and operating procedures.
Likewise, the service technician must become familiar with all safety
precautions before attempting to check the interior of the unit.
The laser unit generates high voltages and emits laser radiation of high
intensity which can cause serious personal injury if handled
improperly.
Lumenis strongly recommends that the operators read these two ANSI
standards before using a laser in clinical practice.
ANSI Z136.3 requires the Laser Safety Officer to fulfill the following
responsibilities:
1. Classify, or verify classification of, lasers and laser systems.
2. Evaluate hazards of laser treatment areas.
3. Assure that the prescribed control measures are in effect and
recommend or approve alternates when the primary ones are not
feasible.
4. Approve operational procedures, including any procedural
checklists.
5. Recommend or approve protective equipment, and assure that it is
periodically inspected to ensure proper working order.
6. Approve wording on signs and equipment labels.
7. Approve installation and equipment prior to use, and modifications
to existing equipment and facilities.
8. Assure adequate safety education and training is provided for all
personnel.
The Laser Safety Officer may also assume other responsibilities, such
as keeping laser use and preventive maintenance logs. The Laser Safety
Officer should become familiar with the periodic preventive
maintenance requirements in the preventive maintenance chapter of
this manual.

Safety
1. The surroundings are safe for both the patient and the operator.
2. The floor is uncluttered and clear access is maintained to the
FINAL DRAFT - NOVEMBER 18, 2009
Caution
The AcuPulse system contains a Class IV, CO2 laser which
produces an invisible beam of high energy infrared radiation.
Improper use could result in serious personal injury. Observe all
safety precautions for Class IV lasers.
misused. Even lasers designed for use on living tissue must be used and
applied carefully in order to avoid:
avoid misapplication.
Laser Classes
Class I Grocery store Class I lasers do not emit levels of optical radiation
scanner above the exposure limits for the eye under any
circumstances - they are no more harmful than an
electric light bulb.
Class II Laser pointer Momentary viewing of Class II lasers is not considered
dangerous.
Class III Laser light show Class III lasers may be hazardous for direct viewing.
Class IV Most surgical Class IV includes all lasers that exceed over 0.5 Watt
lasers average power over 0.25 seconds or those that exceed
10 J/cm2. They can cause serious eye and skin injuries
and set fire to many materials. Both the direct and
reflected beams are hazardous to the eye and skin.
2-4
Safety
An example that illustrates this concept is the use of the Argon laser for
retinal surgery. The Argon laser is used for retinal surgery because the
tissues and fluids in front of the retina do not absorb the Argon laser
wavelength, whereas the retina itself does. By comparison, the CO2 laser
wavelength would be totally absorbed by the lens and would damage it
before reaching the retina.
The operator sets the power in Watts with the laser controls. Note the
relationship of spot size and power: at a given power setting, a larger
spot size spreads the power out over a larger area. This yields a larger
area of impact, but a lesser tissue effect.
The operator controls the exposure with the laser controls. The
exposure determines the duration of the applied laser beam. Obviously,
the longer the exposure is, the greater the tissue impact will be. The
primary exposure control is the footswitch.
1. Burn hazard
2. Reflections and direct eye exposure hazard
3. Explosion and fire hazard
4. Toxic hazard
Caution
Only the person directing the aim of the laser beam should have
access to the laser footswitch. Use caution pressing the laser
footswitch when it is in proximity to footswitches for other
equipment. Make sure the footswitch pressed is the correct one
to avoid unintended laser exposure.
Never place hands or other objects in the path of the laser beam.
Severe burns could occur.
2-6
Safety
All personnel within the operating area of the laser must wear eye
protection with a minimum optical density (OD) of 5.0.
Note
A blocking barrier, screen, or curtain capable of blocking or filtering
the laser beam could be placed to create a controlled area inside a
large treatment room. The barrier should be made of material that
can withstand the power of the treatment beam for the maximum
exposure time, relative to the configuration of the controlled area and
the treatment parameters for the specific medical application.
Caution
Always verify that the delivery device is properly connected to the
laser. An improper connection may result in an inadvertent
secondary laser beam. Severe eye or tissue damage could
FINAL DRAFT - NOVEMBER 18, 2009
occur.
Caution
Do not use this device in the presence of flammables or
explosives, such as volatile anesthetics, alcohol, volatile surgical
preparation solutions, and similar substances. An explosion or
fire could occur.
The area around the target site can be protected with wet towels
or gauze sponges. If allowed to dry, these protective towels and
sponges can increase the potential fire hazard.
2-8
Safety
Caution
Opening the covers will expose personnel to high voltage
components, the laser resonator and possible laser radiation.
Only Lumenis-certified service technicians are qualified to
service the system.
Caution
To prevent unintended laser discharge, always turn off the laser
before connecting a delivery system.
Warning
Use the system only when it is properly grounded via the
protective earth terminal.
Optical Elements
The following precaution should be observed while handling mirrors
and/or lenses: the coatings of the laser tube front mirror, the beam
combiner, the handpiece, and Microslad lenses contain toxic materials.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The active (lasing) medium of a laser can be either gas, liquid or solid.
Most gas lasers consist of atoms, molecules, or mixtures of both. Solid-
state lasers consist of atoms or ions "doped" in some solid matrix.
Liquid lasers consist of higher molecular weight molecules dissolved in
liquids.
Under specific pumping conditions, all these materials can undergo the
unnatural phenomenon of "population inversion" that results in
stimulated emission of radiation at a wavelength characteristic of the
active medium.
This system incorporates a DC-excited CO2 laser tube. The gas used is
enclosed within an aluminum laser tube equipped with electrodes. The
laser tube is positioned between the two mirrors of the optical cavity.
The rear mirror is totally reflective, whereas the front mirror is partially
reflective and transmits the CO2 laser beam into the delivery system.
The stimulated emission takes place between this level and a lower
vibrationally excited level (a symmetric stretching mode), resulting in
laser emission in the far infrared range at a wavelength of 10.6 microns.

The system offers three laser operation modes and three tissue
exposure modes:

General Description
internal power meter which monitors the laser level when needed.
When the shutter is open, the beam combiner combines the CO2 laser
beam and the aiming beam coaxially, and guides them into the
articulated arm beam delivery system.
The CO2 laser tube and the laser power meter are cooled by an internal
closed-loop liquid-to-air cooling system. The coolant used is Fluorinert
FC-770, an inert liquid that does not conduct electricity.
Use only:
Footswitch Connection
To connect the footswitch, place it on the floor and plug its power cable
into the footswitch connection located in the panel. Screw the cable's
threaded cap onto the connection terminal securely. A polarizer on the
socket prevents incorrect connection of the cable (see item #3 in

5.4 LVPS
The AcuPulse system is designed to receive line voltage of 100-240
VAC (±10%) from the power cable connector. The Low Voltage Power
Supply (LVPS) receives AC power from the main electrical grid (after
it has been noise-filtered) and supplies the required DC power to all the
main modules of the AcuPulse system.The voltage passes through line
filters and a galvanic separation transformer before being fed into the
medical grade multi-range low voltage power supply module (LVPS).

Flowswitch
A flowswitch monitors the flow rate of the coolant and activates the
LOW COOLANT FLOW fault message if the flow rate decreases to
below 0.1 gal/min (0.4 lit/min).
FINAL DRAFT - NOVEMBER 18, 2009
Expansion Tank
The expansion tank allows changes in coolant volume caused by
variation in temperature or leaks, thus preventing damage to the
cooling system. The pressure in the expansion tank should be
maintained at values of 0.8 - 1.5 atm (12-22.5 psi).
5.7 Industrial PC
The industrial PC feeds the touch-screen display assembly which
allows the user to control the system by inserting commands through
the Graphical User Interface.
The Scanner board receives 15VDC from the LVPS to feed the scanner
operation (including galvo motors), and 5VDC for internal “logic”
operation of the board.

Functional Description
FINAL DRAFT - NOVEMBER 18, 2009
The mirrors in the articulated arm are adjusted so that the beam always
hits the same point on the handpiece lens for all arm positions. The
handpiece lens focuses the laser beam to a smaller spot size, resulting
in a higher energy density.
5-12
Functional Description
The spring balance system is inactivated (i.e., the long arm section falls
freely when released in any position) until the longer arm section is
raised to the resting position and arm locking pin clicks into place.
Thereafter, the spring balance system is activated, and the longer arm
section will remain in place when released in the “rest” position or in
the “balanced arm” range of position.
The spring torque is adjusted to balance the articulated arm (with the
hand-piece accessory attached) at an angle of approximately 45°. A
friction force applied by the system’s internal bearing enables retention
of the longer arm section within an angle range of approximately 30°
(45° ± 15°).
The torque spring can be adjusted to determine the exact angle at which
the longer section of the arm is retained. For adjustment instructions,
see Chapter 6.

Equipment Required:
In order to attach the tool to the articulated arm, a mirror and its cover
should be removed and replaced with the alignment tool; thus the beam
is diverted through the alignment jig assembly instead of through the
arm.
The beam enters the tool and strikes the beam splitter, is split in two
and directed into two different paths. One beam is directed to an
aperture at the end of the jig assembly. The second beam enters the jig
assembly, where it strikes the first lens. It continues to the next two
mirrors, and finally through the second lens and another mirror to the
second output port of the alignment tool that also contains an aperture
through which the beam exits. The second aperture permits angular
alignment and the first aperture permits depth alignment.

Calibrations, Alignments and Tests
For both the “near range” and “far range” tests, the maximum allowed
distance between the centers of the aiming beam and the burn mark is
1mm.
If the CO2 and aiming beams are concentric in both the “near range”
and far “range tests” (i.e. the centers of the burn marks and the aiming
beam are less than 1 mm apart in both cases), no alignment is required
for the CO2 laser tube.
If the CO2 and aiming beams are not concentric in either of the tests,
the following CO2 laser tube alignment procedure must be performed.
The far alignment is performed on a target placed 3m (10 ft.) from the
beam combiner through adjustment of the CO2 laser rear adjusting
screws.

Do not over-tighten the CO2 laser adjusting screws.

7.4.1 General
Note
Do not perform the articulated arm alignment before ensuring that
the diode aiming beam and the CO2 laser have been perfectly
aligned coaxially.
The coaxial CO2 laser and diode aiming beams must be aligned in
order to travel along the mechanical axis of the articulated arm.
The alignment of each mirror along the arm is important and should be
performed as precisely as possible, since even minor errors are grossly
amplified as the beam progresses along the arm.

Caution
Ensure air flow through the hand piece. Performing this step
without air flow will damage the lens.
5. If the diode aiming beam spot and the CO2 burn mark are

beam at anyone. The hole burned by the laser beam should not
exceed 1.5mm in diameter. If it does, perform ‘Alignment of
Mirrors No.1 through 4’ on page 7-15.
16. Remove the hand piece and test tip.
General Goals
Each of the four adjustable articulated arm folding mirrors No.1
through 4 (note that folding mirrors No.5, 6 and 7 in the end joint
assembly are non-adjustable) should be aligned so that the diode
aiming beam (together with the CO2 laser beam) strikes the mirror
exactly at its center. The mirror then reflects the beam along the
mechanical axis of the articulated arm.
Note
The following procedures require only the diode aiming beam.
The CO2 laser beam is not required.
This procedure maximizes the deflection of the beam spot due to any
misalignment, this facilitating the accurate alignment of the mirror.
If the mirror angle is inadequate, the reflection of the beam will not be
parallel to the mechanical axis of the arm. This misalignment is
observed as two different contact points of the diode aiming beam on
the masking tape placed on the angle window of the alignment jig
assembly – one before and one after the jig assembly is rotated by 180°.
When the mirror has been adjusted to its correct angular position, the
beam will be reflected parallel to the mechanical axis of the arm, and
only one diode aiming beam spot will appear on the masking tape
placed on the angle window of the jig assembly after performing the
180° rotation procedure.
The beam positions noted before and after the 180° rotation will be
coincident.
When the mirror depth has been adjusted, the reflected beam will be
coaxial with the mechanical axis of the articulated arm, and only one
spot will appear on the masking tape when performing the 180°
rotation procedure.
7-16
Calibrations, Alignments and Tests
When adjusting the screws, always release one screw before tightening
the other. Screws should not be too tight. Conversely, no screw should
remain loose after the adjustment is completed.
Note
In order not to alter the angle alignment when performing depth
alignment, all screws must be rotated the exact same number of
turns.

Ensure that the initial angular and depth alignments are performed
with the spring balance system inactivated.
