CANDELA MINI GENTLELASE MGL , GLP LASER HEAD, CAVITY, NEW , NO NEED CORE EXCHANGE, CALH1436

Description

Parts4Laser guarantees all of our products to be of the highest quality at very competitive prices. This Candela laser head cavity, part number CALH1436, is new, packaged, and ready for fast delivery. There is no need to send in your old laser head for a core exchange.

Part Number: CALH1436

This laser head fits the following machines:

• Candela GentleLASE (GL)
• Candela GentleLASE Plus (GLP)
• Candela Mini GentleLASE (MGL)
• Candela Mini GentleYAG (MGY)
• Candela GentleMAX

This is a new laser head, not a refurbished or rebuilt unit. All parts are brand new, including all new metal components, flash lamps, triple bore flow tube, reflector, light blocking hardware, and O-ring seals. Parts4Laser individually performance-tests every laser head in the factory, and each unit shows excellent output energy.

New laser heads greatly increase the useful life of the entire laser system. As a result, they substantially lower the voltage required to produce the same output energy.

Laser rod is NOT included. However, Parts4Laser also offers installation of your laser rod, along with testing, refurbishing, and reworking services for your laser rod.

Signs You Need a Replacement

• Your system cannot achieve the setting or power you request.
• You hear a thumping sound, or you do not get enough speed and energy during treatment.

Laser Head Replacement Procedure

NOTE: Exercise extreme care. Cleanliness of optics is essential. Refer to Service Procedure 8503-01-0060 for optic cleanliness. Refer to drawing 7121-99-6700, 7121-99-6780 and 7122-99-3298 for specific details. Avoid the need to clean the optics other than by gently blowing the dust off of them with filtered, compressed nitrogen or air. If the laser rod needs cleaning, gently wipe with methanol, acetone, or propanol.

CAUTION: This laser system does not have a fast discharge high voltage dump resistor. It takes approximately 16 minutes for the high voltage to discharge from 2000 VDC to 40 VDC. To discharge the high voltage quickly, set the HV to 0 volts when the actual voltage is greater than 1000 volts and pulse the laser. However, do not pulse the laser at a voltage that will give more than 60j of head energy — wait for the head to bleed down instead. This will discharge it to less than 100 VDC but not to zero. Therefore, 100 volts can still be lethal with this size capacitor. Wait until the voltage is less than 40 volts before using a shorting stick. Never work on the high voltage components until the voltage is measured as zero and a shorting stick is across the capacitor terminals to ground.

1. The laser must be OFF. Check the high voltage and verify that it is at 0 volts. Unplug the laser.
2. Remove the top skin. Remove the Laser Rail dust cover.
3. Remove the two fluid lines from the Laser Head.
4. Remove the lamp trigger wire from the Laser Head.
5. Remove the HV wires and/or trigger assist wires and/or flashlamp wires connected to the Laser Head.
6. Remove the four screws that secure the Laser Head to the Monolithic Rail.
7. Remove the Laser Head from the Laser Rail.
8. Install the new Laser Head onto the Monolithic Laser Rail. Refer to drawings 7121-99-6700, 7121-99-6780, and 7122-99-3298 for specific details. Tighten the screws until the lock washers just start to compress; do not flatten the lock washers.
9. Perform an alignment verification. For GL systems, refer to Service Procedure 8503-01-0610; for GL Plus, GL 18mm, and GL LE, refer to Service Procedure 8503-01-0690; for MGL, refer to Service Procedures 8503-01-0825 and 8503-01-0826.

Candela GentleLase Laser Head Information

There are several reasons why a laser head can go bad. First, a water leak in the laser head can cause pressure to build up and break the laser rod, the device through which the laser passes, causing the rod to crack. Because even one crack can stop the laser head from working, Parts4Laser recommends prompt inspection whenever a leak is suspected.

Secondly, laser heads require a spotless-clean environment. If a small speck of dust settles on the optics, the laser makes contact with the dust and gradually burns the optic until the laser energy has nowhere to go except backwards or sideways, which can damage additional components. Dust can also burn the laser rod, and even the laser head itself. Additionally, water pressure or dust can damage the flow tubes or triple bore.

Lastly, a Candela GentleLase laser head can malfunction or stop working altogether because of a damaged or broken flash lamp. Therefore, pay close attention to your lamp life. If you notice your power has decreased significantly, so that you need more treatments to achieve the same result, it may be time to change your flash lamp.

To extend the life of your laser machine, Parts4Laser recommends a preventative maintenance service every six months. This helps ensure the safety of your patients, your investment, and your business, since a broken machine can cause delays and prevent you from following through on advertised services or scheduled appointments.
