peakDetect - Pulse Monitoring Multi-Tool
1 / 3Pages

peakDetect - Pulse Monitoring Multi-Tool Innovative Pulse Monitoring peakDetect is an innovative measurement tool for the precise monitoring of ultra-short lasers. It is a key tool for quality management and predictive maintenance, potentially saving downtime costs and helping to plan necessary service in advance. peakDetect is a single device without moving parts. It measures at the same time the average power, beam pointing, nonlinear efficiency and temperature. These measurements also yield pulse quality as a new unique monitoring parameter as well as the peak power as additional values. The compact and robust design makes peakDetect ideal for incorporation into laser systems or production lines and as a portable service tool. Solide State Laser Monitored over a 48 Hour Period The comparison of measurement results obtained with the peakDetect and various standard measurement tools over 48 hours shows excellent agreement of trends and small variations of the derived laser parameters.
