Product catalog summary
Overview of PD-300 Series Photodiode Heads and Instruments
The PD-300 series is designed for measuring laser power across a spectral range of 193-1800nm, with power capabilities from picowatts to 3 Watts. These heads are ideal for low power continuous wave lasers and out-of-fiber measurements, featuring automatic background light cancellation, swivel mounts, and user-selected wavelength correction.
Specifications and Features
  • Power Range: 1pW to 30mW, extendable to 300mW or 3W with a filter.
  • Spectral Range: 200-1800nm, depending on the model.
  • Resolution: Up to 0.1pW.
  • Display Options: Includes digital power, analog bar graph, power vs. time, and laser tuning.
  • Accuracy: Typically ±3% to ±10%, varying by wavelength.
  • Response Time: 0.2 seconds.
  • Noise Level: As low as 0.02nW at mid-spectrum with the filter out.
PD300 Series Models
  • PD300: Covers 350-1100nm, up to 300mW.
  • PD300-1W: Extends power measurement up to 1W.
  • PD300-3W: Suitable for high power densities up to 3W.
  • PD300-IR: Designed for infrared range 800-1800nm.
  • PD300-UV: Covers ultraviolet range 200-1100nm.
  • PD300-IRG: For fiber optic communications, covering 800-1700nm.
Additional Features and Accessories
  • Fiber adapters for various connector types (SMA, ST, FC, LC, SC).
  • Automatic background subtraction and dynamic range adjustment.
  • Optional accessories include fiber optic and CDRH adapters.
Radiometer and Photometer Heads
  • PD300-BB: Measures broadband light sources with a flat spectral response from 400 to 1000nm.
  • PD300-CIE: Designed for photopic measurements in Lux or Foot Candles, with a spectral response similar to the human eye.
PD200 Head and Display
The PD200 is a compact laser power meter for measuring up to 200mW with a spectral range of 400-1100nm. It features a swivel mount head, rechargeable battery, and analog output. Calibration is stored in the head connector for easy interchangeability.
BC20 Power Meter for Scanned Beams
Designed for applications like bar code scanners and laser printers, the BC20 measures scanned beams with high accuracy and dynamic background suppression.
Overview
The document provides detailed specifications and ordering information for various laser beam measurement devices, including the BC20 smart head detector and integrating sphere power meters. These instruments are designed for measuring both scanned and static laser beams, with features that enhance accuracy and usability in different environments.
BC20 Smart Head Detector
The BC20 is a versatile laser beam measurement device using a silicon detector and advanced circuitry to measure beams up to 20 milliwatts. It features patented dynamic background subtraction, allowing accurate measurements in normal room light by eliminating over 95% of background light. The device supports user recalibration and is compatible with various Ophir display heads.
  • Specifications: Measures wavelengths of 633, 650, and 675nm, with power ranges of 2.000mW and 20.00mW. Calibration accuracy is ±3% + 3 least significant digits, and it has a detector saturation level of 20mW/mm².
  • Features: The measuring wand swivels 180° for access to hidden beams, and the device is CE approved for electromagnetic compatibility.
  • Ordering Information: Includes part numbers for the BC20 smart head detector and swivel stand.
Integrating Sphere Smart Heads
These devices are designed for measuring divergent beams and diode lasers, with models covering different wavelength ranges and power levels.
  • 3A-IS: Measures power from 1µW to 3W, suitable for divergent beams and diode lasers. It features a photodiode absorber and supports fiber adapters.
  • 3A-IS-IRG: Similar to the 3A-IS but optimized for wavelengths between 800-1700nm, using an InGaAs detector.
  • F100A-IS: Measures power from 50mW to 100W and energy from 30mJ to 100J, with a Lambertian white coating and thermal detector. It includes additional output fiber ports and fan cooling.
Ordering Information
Each device has specific part numbers for ordering, and additional fiber adapters are available for customization.
Graphical Data
The document includes a graph showing the relative spectral response of the BC20, useful for interpolation when using wavelengths other than those factory calibrated.
Conclusion
The document provides comprehensive technical details and ordering information for laser beam measurement devices, highlighting their capabilities, specifications, and compatibility with various applications.
