`
`Chapter 1
`GENERAL INFORMATION
`
`WARNING
`
`This unit emits ultraviolet (UV) radiation that is
`harmful to humans. Avoid exposure to the
`direct or reflected output beam. Make certain
`that the appropriate output beam shields and
`optics are in place prior to energizing the unit.
`All
`interlocks must be satisfied prior
`to
`operation; failure to do so may
`lead to
`hazardous conditions.
`
`CAUTION
`
`The EQ-90-FC emits dangerous levels of UV
`radiation. Even short exposures to skin or eyes
`may cause burns. Ensure that only authorized
`personnel are in the vicinity of source during
`operation. Personnel in vicinity of operating
`source should wear protective eyewear, clothing,
`and gloves. Lighted UV warning lights and signs
`posted on doors to lab areas may help prevent
`accidental exposure.

`
`

`
`WARNING
`
`The EQ-90-FC controller utilizes an internal
`Class 4 IR laser capable of causing severe injury
`to eyes or skin. Do not open or attempt to
`service this unit. Contact Energetiq regarding any
`problems with the unit.
`
`
`
`
`
`General Precautions
`The EQ-90-FC should only be operated with a fiber connected to the broadband output and
`connected using an FC connector. Operation without an FC terminated fiber in place will
`result in hazardous broadband radiation. The far end of the output fiber should be terminated
`into a closed beam tube. Due to the possibility of generating ozone when ambient oxygen is
`exposed to short wavelength light, the beam should always be enclosed in an appropriate beam
`pipe, tube, or enclosed space. We suggest purging any beam transport space with dry nitrogen
`gas.
`
`The EQ-90-FC source must also be cabled correctly and connected to a socket with a
`protective earth ground prior to operation.
`
`Refer to the Installation section of this manual (Chapter 3) for details of the facilities
`connections.
`
`Other than a bulb replacement, there are no user-serviceable parts inside the EQ-90-FC. For
`any problems encountered during operation, please contact Energetiq Technology for
`assistance. If there is a component failure, do not attempt to open the Power Supply
`Controller or Lamp House enclosure of the EQ-90-FC.

`
`

`
`The EQ-90-FC utilizes a quartz lamp containing a high-pressure gas fill. Explosion of
`
`the lamp and possible injury from flying fragments can occur if the lamp is
`
`mishandled.
`
`Do not open the enclosure of either the Lamp House enclosure or the Power Supply
`
`Controller. Dangerous invisible infrared laser beams and hazardous voltages exist
`inside the units. Opening the chassis both voids the warranty and exposes the user to
`dangerous radiation and hazardous voltages.
`
`
`
`CAUTION
`
`Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures
`other than those specified herein may result in hazardous
`radiation exposure.
`
`
`
`Laser Information
`The EQ-90-FC uses a patented (U.S. Patent #7435982, 7786455, 7989786, others pending)
`laser drive system to excite a plasma that radiates in the UV as well as the visible bands. A
`class 4 laser is located in the Power Supply Controller enclosure. Laser energy is delivered via
`an armored fiber to the Lamp House enclosure and connected with an SMA-type connector.
`Safety interlocks shut down the laser power if the SMA connector is removed from the Lamp
`House enclosure. The optical configuration of the Lamp House ensures that the direct laser
`beam can not exit the unit. The EQ-90-FC laser product is designated as Class 1 during all
`normal operation.

`
`Input/Output (I/O) Connector
`Provides access to control and status signals. See Chapter 3 for pin assignments and functions.
`
`This is the only operator interface to the EQ-90-FC – there are no local controls. Energetiq
`offers the EQ-99-RC Remote Control Module which connects to the Input/Output
`connector and provides a means of local control. Contact Energetiq for additional
`information.
`
`Power Input Connector
`This is a latching input connector for 12 VDC power. Power can be provided using the
`optional PS00018 12VDC power supply. Alternatively, the EQ-90-FC can be powered directly
`from a customer provided 12VDC power supply. See Chapter 3 for detailed information.
`
`Lamp House Signal Connector (mini D sub – 9-pin)
`Provides various power and control signals to/from the Lamp House module. No other
`connector or cable may be used with the EQ-90-FC other than the one supplied.
`
`Armored Laser Fiber
`The laser light is delivered from the Power Supply Controller to the Lamp House via a fiber
`optic cable with armored protection. The fiber is permanently attached to the Power Supply
`Controller, and connected to the Lamp House by an SMA-type connector.
`
`It is critical that this armored fiber be treated with care and inspected for any abnormalities
`prior to operation. Avoid sharp bends, which will permanently damage the fiber. Minimum
`bend radius is 30mm (1.18 in). Avoid crimping or compressing the fiber. See Chapter 3 for
`further information on the laser fiber.

`
`
`Figure 3):
`
`FC Output Connector
`Provides broadband optical output using a standard FC connector. Energetiq recommends the
`use of an Energetiq-supplied fiber for the broadband output. These fibers are able to
`withstand the very high power density of deep UV radiation that is generated by the EQ-90-
`FC, thus giving best longevity and performance.

`
`

`
`Nitrogen Purge Inlet
`This is the inlet fitting for nitrogen purge gas. Purge gas is optional but is recommended for
`best performance. With no purge, ozone will form from atmospheric oxygen and attenuate
`the light output in the 220 – 280nm band. In addition, atmospheric oxygen and water vapor
`will attenuate the output below 200nm.
`
`There is no return fitting for the purge nitrogen. The purge flow normally escapes within the
`Lamp House enclosure, and then to atmosphere.
`
`Laser Input
`This is the inlet connector for the armored fiber from the Power Supply Controller. It
`contains a set of interlock pins that disable the laser when the SMA connector is not properly
`in place.
`
`Laser On Indicator
`This LED is illuminated when the laser is ON.
`
`J4 Signal Connector (mini D sub – 9-pin)
`Provides various power and control signals to/from the Power Supply Controller. No other
`connector or cable may be used with the EQ-90-FC other than the one supplied.

`
`

`
`Electrical Power
`The EQ-90-FC requires 12VDC at 11.7A minimum (140W rating). Power consumption is
`approximately 75W during normal operation.
`
`Power can be provided using the optional PS00018 12VDC power supply. Alternatively,
`power can be provided directly via a customer provided 12VDC power supply. The connector
`on the EQ-90-FC is a latching connector. Once fully inserted, the connector will not release
`unless the body of the connector is pulled first. This protects from accidental removal of
`power if the power cable is pulled. Connect to a 12VDC source as follows:
`
`Connector
`
`Kycon KPPX-4P
`
`Pins 3 & 4
`
`+12VDC
`
`Pins 1 & 2
`
` 12VDC return
`
`
`
`Purge Gas
`Purge gas is optional but is recommended for best performance. With no purge, ozone will
`form from atmospheric oxygen and attenuate the light output in the 220 – 280nm band. In
`addition, atmospheric oxygen and water vapor will attenuate the output below 200nm.
`
`If required, connect a source of nitrogen purge gas to the port on the Lamp House. The
`fitting is a push-to-connect type, sized for 4 mm tubing.
`
`Clean and dry nitrogen from either a dewar or research-grade N2 bottle is recommended. Do
`not use any other purge gas. Grade 6 or better gas purity is recommended to maintain
`cleanliness of the optics, and the gas should be filtered to < 5um. Supply pressure should be
`20 psig (0.14 MPa). With a 20 psig inlet pressure, the EQ-90-FC will consume approximately 1
`slm of flow.
`
`There is no return fitting for the purge nitrogen. The purge flow normally escapes within the
`Lamp House enclosure, and then to atmosphere.

`
`
`Signal Connections
`The EQ-90-FC is controlled through the remote I/O connector.
`
`Table 3 gives the pin assignments and functions for this interface. Connect to the user’s
`control system using a suitable cable. Mating connector is a standard high-density 15-pin d-
`sub male (for example, Amp part no. 748364-1 with contacts 1658670-2).
`
`Optionally, connect a model EQ-99-RC remote control module to the I/O connector using
`the supplied cable
`
`User I/O can be powered either by the EQ-90 internal isolated power supply, or an external
`supply.
`
`Figure 6 shows connection schematics for both configurations.

`

`
`
`Installation Procedure
`1. Mount the Power Supply Controller unit rigidly to either an optical breadboard plate
`or another suitable mounting structure using the supplied tabs on the bottom of the
`chassis. The holes are sized to accept standard ¼-20 optical bench hardware, and
`spaced to be compatible with a standard 1” grid mounting hole pattern. See Figure 5
`for dimensional and mounting details.
`Do not block the air vents of the Power Supply Controller.
`2. Connect the Lamp House unit output to the user equipment. The output should
`always be connected to a fiber optic cable. The output end of the fiber optic cable
`should always be either directly coupled to another fiber optic cable, or enclosed in an
`appropriate beam pipe, tube, or enclosed space and purged with nitrogen. Operating
`the source without any output target or beam transport is not recommended, and may
`lead to unsafe operating conditions. Consult Energetiq for applications information
`and suggested configurations.
`The Lamp House should be mounted in the orientation shown in Figure 3, with the
`output connector on the top and the flat surface of the housing on the bottom. The
`lamp has been factory aligned in this position. Mounting the lamp in a different
`orientation will cause the plasma position inside the bulb to shift slightly. This will
`result in slight misalignment and a resulting drop in output power.
`3. Setup the Lamp House unit with appropriate ultraviolet safety measures and laser light
`safety measures in place. It is recommended that any enclosure or aperture-blocking
`hardware utilize switches wired to the EQ-90-FC external interlock circuit.
`4. Connect the black 9 pin mini D-sub interconnect cable from the Power Supply
`Controller (labeled TO LAMP) to the Lamp House (labeled J4).
`5. The EQ-90-FC is delivered with the armored laser fiber connected to the lamp house.
`This is done to minimize the possibility of debris or particles contaminating the end of
`the laser fiber. Energetiq strongly recommends leaving the laser fiber connected, unless
`it is necessary to disconnect it for installation or routing of the laser fiber. If the laser
`fiber must be disconnected, apply SMA caps immediately to both ends, and follow
`directions on inspection and cleaning of the laser fiber described in Chapter 5.
`Use care when handling the fiber optic cable to avoid sharp bends, which will
`permanently damage the cable. Minimum bend radius for the cable is 30mm (1.18 in).
`6. If necessary, connect the SMA connector to the Lamp House laser input and tighten.
`The SMA connector should be oriented such that the indicator line on the laser fiber
`is facing upwards (towards the bulb).
`7. If required, connect nitrogen purge gas to the Lamp House. Refer to “Facilities
`Requirements” above.
`8. Connect user’s control system to the I/O interface connector per Table 3 and Figure
`6.

`
`9. Alternately, if using the EQ-99-RC Remote Control Module, place it on a clean rigid
`surface. Install the supplied 15-pin cable from the Power Supply Controller to the
`EQ-99-RC.
`10. Connect 12VDC input power source to the Power Supply Controller.
`
`
`The system is now ready to operate.

`
`OPERATION
`
`Starting
`Once the lamp is set up properly, verify that all personnel that will be in contact with the lamp
`system are aware of the potential hazards involved. It is the responsibility of the user to verify
`that the lamp is being used safely.
`
`This example assumes the use of the EQ-99-RC Remote Control Module to provide local
`control. If using a custom control system, substitute the appropriate digital input and output
`lines from Table 3 for the switches and LEDs described below.
`
`1. With the EQ-99-RC Remote Control Module connected properly, review the status
`LEDs on the Power Supply Controller. The POWER ON LED should be lit, and
`neither the CONTROLLER FAULT nor LAMP MODULE FAULT LEDs should
`be lit.
`2. Turn on the OPERATE Switch (place switch in UP position).
`3. Within several seconds the LASER ON LED will light. Laser light is now present in
`the Lamp House.
`4. In approximately 20-150 seconds the igniter will be turned on automatically and the
`plasma will ignite. The LAMP ON LED will be lit. The duration of the warm up time
`(20-150 seconds) will depend on the temperature and previous operating condition of
`the EQ-90-FC. The EQ-90-FC will automatically detect when the unit has reached
`the optimum conditions for ignition.
`5. If a bulb fails to ignite, 150 seconds after the OPERATE switch was activated, the
`LASER ON LED will go out, the LAMP FAULT LED will be lit, and LAMP ON
`LED will remain off. This is very unusual. However, if this occurs, turn the
`OPERATE switch to the OFF position (down) and begin at Step 1 again. If this
`occurs multiple times, contact Energetiq service.
`Stopping
`To turn the LAMP off, simply turn the OPERATE Switch to the OFF position. If the lamp
`will not be used for some time, the 12VDC supply can be turned
