water flow ports. The Diamond Performance Package, which has a
water-to-air heat exchanger for the DC power supply, is set up so
both the water source and return are connected to the power module.
Supply and return lines for the laser head are connected to the
module as indicated in Figure titled “Cooling System Diagram” in
the Performance Package Operator’s Manual.
Shutter
On the GEM-series the shutter is customer supplied. To meet US
regulations, all high-power (Class IV) laser systems must have shut-
ters capable of absorbing the full output of the laser. The K-series
Basic and Performance laser heads are already equipped with such
shutters, while OEM heads are not. Shutters added to Diamond
lasers should have apertures large enough to transmit the beam (their
clear aperture should be at least 1.5 times the beam diameter) and
should signal their status in both the closed and open positions.
