Warnings and Precautions
The COPAS BIOSORT is a Class I laser product containing a Class IIIA laser. The COPAS Argon
Laser System contains a Class III B laser, which is fiber coupled through a fiber optic. Only
qualified service personnel should remove the COPAS Argon Laser System or the optics assembly
covers.
The COPAS BIOSORT is comprised of the Dispenser and the Argon Laser System. This term is used in
reference to the combination of these two components. Use of the COPAS BIOSORT Dispenser and
Argon Laser System in a manner not specified by Union Biometrica may impair the protection provided
by the equipment.
The COPAS instrument will be factory shipped to you in protective packaging and will be installed by a
trained Union Biometrica, Inc. representative. The Union Biometrica service representative will also
verify the system performance. If the instrument must be moved or maintenance must be performed,
Union Biometrica, Inc. recommends that a trained Union Biometrica representative install the system and
perform most maintenance functions. The connection of the Laser fiber optic cable requires special
attention and should not be attempted by untrained persons.
In order to prevent the system from overheating, ensure that the installation permits the unrestricted flow
of air around the system components and confirm prior to installation that the Work Area and Facilities
specifications have been met.
The COPAS BIOSORT should be used only by trained laboratory personnel. Use of this instrument by
an untrained operator could result in damage to the product or injury to the operator.
Other than procedures outlined in the Operator’s Manual, there are no other operator required electrical,
optical, or mechanical adjustment or serviceable components.
Please refer to the Operator’s Manual for complete Safety Warnings and Precautions.
