Beam delivery optical cable and collimator coolant hoses
Proper cooling of the delivery cable is critical to long life and proper operation of the beam delivery optical cable.
Note: Previous versions of the collimators and bayonets had water IN and water OUT marked near the
connections. The newer versions of the collimators and bayonets do not have the connections marked.
The instructions below still identify the connections as they are marked on the older versions for clarity
and consistency. The sequence of the connections is not critical.
Caution: the coolant hoses must be connected as shown in the steps below. Failure to make the
proper connections can result in damage to laser components.
1. Insert the blue 6 mm hose into the blue 6 mm supply fitting on the laser head manifold.
2. Connect the other end of the blue 6 mm hose to the WATER IN fitting on the collimator.
3. Insert the black 6 mm hose into the WATER OUT fitting on the collimator.
4. Connect the other end of the black 6 mm hose to the WATER IN fitting on the bayonet.
5. Insert the red 6 mm hose into the WATER OUT fitting on the bayonet.
6. Connect the other end of the red 6 mm hose to the red 6 mm return fitting on the laser head manifold.
