Most warnings will appear in the left margin of the page next to the subject or step to which it applies. Take care when performing any procedures preceded by or containing a warning. The classifications of warning are defined as follows:  Laser – pertaining to exposure to visible or invisible LASER radiation.  Electrostatic – pertaining to electrostatic discharge.  Network Connection – pertaining to communication ports and instrument damage. WARNING: There are no user serviceable components inside the particle counter.
Lighthouse Worldwide Solutions Pre-Release Review Copy ApexZ Operators Manual 248083466-1 10 | P a g e WARNING: There are no user-serviceable components inside the particle counter. The use of controls, adjustments or procedures other than those specified within this manual may result in personal injury and/or damage to this instrument. Laser Safety This product is considered to be a Class 1 LASER product (as defined by FDA 21 CFR, §1040.10 and IEC 60825-1:2014) when used under normal operation and maintenance. Performing service on the internal sensor can, however, result in exposure to invisible radiation. The particle counter has been evaluated and tested in accordance with EN 61010-1:2012, “Safety Requirements for Electrical Equipment for Measurement, Control and Laboratory Use” and IEC 60825-1:2014, “Safety of LASER Products”. For further technical assistance, contact our Technical Support Team at 1-800-945-5905 (USA Toll Free), or 1-541-770-5905. Laser Warning Label

Use of unauthorized batteries may cause damage to equipment, void warranty, and pose a threat to safety.
Lighthouse Worldwide Solutions Pre-Release Review Copy ApexZ Operators Manual 248083466-1 12 | P a g e Power Safety Start Up This is the Power Button. Press the power button to turn on the ApexZ particle counter. Note with a large database of 10,000 records, startup will extend while the database is being loaded. Shut Down To shut down press the power button ONCE and DO NOT hold it down. It is permissible to shut down the ApexZ particle counter from any one of the user interface screens. Users are not required to logout before ApexZ is shut down. If Users are enabled, shutting down the ApexZ will logout the current user and will require a user to login when the ApexZ is next started. WARNING: DO NOT PRESS AND HOLD THE POWER BUTTON TO SHUT DOWN. THIS WILL CAUSE A HARD POWER SHUT DOWN AND WILL CORRUPT THE DATABASE. WARNING: If the ApexZ is shut down during a sample, that sample will not be completed or saved. 2 1
Lighthouse Worldwide Solutions Pre-Release Review Copy ApexZ Operators Manual 248083466-1 13 | P a g e WARNING: Do not attempt to sample reactive gasses (such as hydrogen or oxygen) with this instrument. Reactive gasses create an explosion hazard in the instrument. Sampling any gas under pressure can damage the instrument and void the warranty. Sampling any gas that is not the same density as ambient air can result in inaccurate data. Do NOT allow water, solvents, or other liquids to enter the instrument via the inlet tube - the instrument will be damaged and the warranty voided. WARNING: The use of controls, adjustments or procedures other than those specified within this manual may result in personal injury and/or damage to this instrument. Attempts by untrained personnel to disassemble, alter, modify or adjust the electronics or optics may result in personal injury and damage to the instrument and will void its warranty. There are no user-serviceable components inside the particle counter. Only factory authorized service personnel should repair or service this instrument and its optical system. If replacement of the power supply or its AC power cord is required, replace it only with a power supply or cord having as good as or better ratings than specifications provided by Lighthouse Worldwide Solutions. Attempting to use an under-rated power supply or cord can expose the instrument and adjacent equipment to the user to dangerous shock and fire hazards. Failure to meet this requirement will void the CE certification, void the instrument warranty and can result in serious personal injury. Sampling Safety Operating Safety Electrostatic Safety Information WARNING: Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage or destroy electronic components. Therefore, any service or maintenance work should be done at a static-free work station. A static-free work station requires an ESD consultant to evaluate the work environment and propose the equipment and apparel needed for a work station to be successful.

Lighthouse Worldwide Solutions Pre-Release Review Copy ApexZ Operators Manual 248083466-1 17 | P a g e Introduction Overview This operating manual introduces the Lighthouse ApexZ portable particle counters and includes instructions for inspecting, installing, using and maintaining the instrument. Description The ApexZ portable particle counter comes standard with 6 particle-size channels (ApexZ3: 0.3, 0.5, 1.0, 3.0, 5.0, 10.0 microns), (ApexZ50: 0.5, 0.7, 1.0, 3.0, 5.0, 10.0 microns) and a flow rate of (ApexZ3: 1.0 CFM), (ApexZ50: 100LPM). The instrument uses a LASER diode light source and LASER beam shaping optics to illuminate a cross section of the air flow path. As particles move along this path, they cross the LASER beam and scatter light. The scattered light rays from particles cutting through the beam are steered to a photodiode using a system of collection optics. The photodiode converts the image into a current which is converted to a voltage and amplified by an electronic circuit. The amplitude of the voltage pulse is proportional to the light scattered, which in turn is proportional to the size of the particle. The voltage pulses created by the particle are then processed by additional electronics that analyze the height of each pulse and therefore, the size of each corresponding particle. The result is that the number of particles of various sizes is determined. The ApexZ is effective in both ultra-clean areas (such as ISO Class 1 or Grade A) and in more traditional clean zones rated as ISO Class 3 or higher. Refer to Specifications in this manual for additional instrument information. Accessories ApexZ Includes: USB cable A to B, USB flash drive 512 MB with lanyard, tripod mini 7” telescoping, ISO probe (ApexZ3: 1 CFM, ApexZ50 100 LPM), ISP clamp, tubing (ApexZ3: 3/8“ ID x 1/2” OD BevXX 10 feet, ApexZ50 ½” ID x 5/8” OD BevXX 10 feet), Zero count filter, 24 VDC 5.0 amp power adapter and power cord, *1 Li-Ion Smart battery included (2 battery slot capacity), 2x rolls of printer paper, Calibration certificate, USB key with Datasheet, Read Me First and Operators Manual.
