T echnical SupportOperationalExcellenceSuperior CustomerServiceWarrantyOn-Time DeliveryC24 ProgramProduct Reliability For over 40 years, Coherent has been supplying you with the best laser measurement and beam diagnostic equipment available. We realize that while technical specifications greatly influence your purchasing decisions, you also must consider many other important criteria. In a recent customer survey we found that Product Reliability, Speed of Responsiveness, and Technical Support are the three top criteria when choosing a laser test and measurement supplier. That’s why we place...

The measurement circuitry typically found in a standalone meter has been reduced in size to the extent that it can now fit inside a USB connector. The circuitry and USB connector have been adapted into a ‘PowerMax-USB’ cable that can be integrated to most Coherent power sensors providing accurate power measurements of all types...

4 Superior Reliability & Performance • www.Coherent.com • LMC.sales@coherent.com Product Overview PowerMax-USB/RS Sensors Thermopile Technology Thermopile sensors are a great all-purpose technology suitable for many lasers. They are used for measuring CW laser power, average power in pulsed lasers, and are often used to integrate the energy of long pulses. Thermopile sensors absorb incident laser radiation and convert it into heat. This heat ultimately flows to a heat sink that is held at ambient temperature by either convection-cooling or water-cooling. The temperature difference between...

A unique capability of thermopile sensors is the ability to integrate the power of a single “long” laser pulse. “Long” pulse refers to pulses roughly 1 msec up to several seconds in pulse length. The instrumentation analyzes the output of the thermopile and applies the integration through the use of an algorithm that results in a...
