Product catalog summary
Overview: The CAM SQUARED is a compact, alignment-free M2 meter designed for quick and easy laser quality testing. It complies with ISO 11146 standards and is suitable for a wide range of applications, including manufacturing, imaging, fiber optics, and free space optical communications.
Key Features:
  • ISO 11146 Compliance: Measures intensity and phase to calculate the M2 factor.
  • Self-Aligned: No alignment required, simplifying setup.
  • Short Measurement Cycle: No translation needed, ideal for pulsed lasers and dynamic applications.
  • Optics-Free: No mirrors or lenses, avoiding aberrations and coating limitations.
  • SM1 Thread: Allows easy mounting of optical densities for laser power adaptation.
Applications: Suitable for labs and industrial settings, the CAM SQUARED is used in manufacturing, imaging, fiber optics, and LIDAR systems to improve beam quality and propagation.

  • Aperture Dimensions: 6.9 x 5.1 mm² (L), 4.5 x 3.7 mm² (M)
  • Beam Diameter: Min. 0.8 mm, Max. 5 mm (L), 3.6 mm (M)
  • Acquisition Frequency: 55 Hz (L), 125 Hz (M)
  • Wavelength Range: 350 - 1100 nm
  • Minimum Power: 0.15 nW
  • Operating System: Windows 10 & 11
  • Measurement Cycle Time: Typically milliseconds
  • Damage Thresholds: 100 mW/cm² (CW), 100 µJ/cm² (Pulsed)
  • Dimensions: 50 x 50 x 55 mm³
  • Weight: 200 g (USB version)
  • Interface: Ethernet or USB 3.0
  • Power Consumption: 3.1 W
Software: Utilizes WAVEVIEWTM Metrology Software for optimized laser quality metrics display, with optional phase measurement and SDK extensions.
