Description

Lasermet’s ICS-SOLO is a low-cost, dual-channel laser safety interlock controller ideal for enclosed laser rooms, like laser treatment rooms in the medical and cosmetic industries or small hand-held laser welding operations in the industrial sector.

The ICS-SOLO is a single-input, single-output laser safety controller typically used in small laser safety enclosures with a single door, controlling a single laser. It is a dual-channel device, meaning its two input switches must both be closed (safe status) for the laser to be enabled.

This is achieved using Lasermet’s dual-channel door interlock switch. The ICS-SOLO features a simple, easy-to-use control panel that can be wired directly to the dual-channel switch on the interlocked door, as well as to the laser, keyswitch, emergency stops, and LED warning sign.

Using the ICS-SOLO Interlock® System

Enter and Secure the Enclosure

• Enter the enclosure and firmly close the door.
• The dual-channel door switch will engage, the laser must remain disabled while the door is open.

Verify Safety Status

• Check the interlock controller panel.
• Confirm that the Safety OK status LEDs are illuminated, indicating that all safety conditions are met.

Arm the Laser

• Turn the Keyswitch to the “Enable” position.
• Press the “Arm Laser” button to initiate the arming process.

Confirm Laser Readiness

• Wait for the System Armed LED to illuminate.
• Once lit, the laser is fully armed and ready for operation.

Best Practice for Simple Laser Operations

The ICS-SOLO is ideal for simple laser operations due to its cost-effective design, dual-channel safety system, and easy integration with key safety components.

It ensures compliance with IEC 60825 while providing reliable laser control for medical and cosmetic treatment rooms.
