9.4.3 Adjusting the Exhaust Unit (Adjusting the Laser Gas
Consumption)
(1) Remove the piping from the filter of the gas controller, then
attach a gas meter for laser gas.
(2) Set PRM No. 15260 to 30, then start the oscillator. Air taken in
when the outlet is opened to the atmosphere in step 1) is
exhausted. After 30 seconds, turn off RUN.
(3) Set the laser oscillator to the base discharge state (LSTR).
(4) Increase the specified output gradually from a low level of
output to the rated output. When the RF voltage is high, perform
a purge operation once, then increase the output again.
(5) While checking the flow rate of gas with a gas meter when
internal discharge is performed at the rated output, turn the
exhaust flow rate adjustment valve to adjust the flow rate to the
set value.
(6) Stop the oscillator.
(7) Return the modified parameter value to the original value.
(8) This completes the adjustment.
NOTE
Excessive parameter value modifications increase
laser gas consumption and adversely affect gas
pressure control.
