Z-LASER, ZM18B

Product catalog summary

Product Overview: The ZM18B laser module offers red or infrared wavelengths with optical output power up to 120mW for red and 160mW for infrared. It features various optics including Gaussian/uniform line, dot, and DOE optics. The module is designed for versatility with a supply voltage range of 5 to 30VDC and includes reverse polarity protection.

Mechanical Specifications: The laser module has dimensions of 108mm x Ø 20mm for the focusable version and 92mm x Ø 20mm for the fixed focus version. It is housed in an M18 industry housing made of chromed brass with an anodised aluminium optic head. The module is IP67 rated, ensuring it is water-proof and dust-proof, and weighs 75g for the focusable version.

Electrical Specifications: The module operates with an APC mode with current limiting and includes protection features such as reverse polarity, transient protection, ESD, over temperature protection, and an LED pre-failure indicator. It does not support modulation.

Optical Specifications: The ZM18B supports wavelengths ranging from 635nm to 980nm with power stability of ±3% over the operating temperature range. It offers a focus range from 100mm to infinity and pointing stability of less than 15µrad/°C. Various line and dot profiles are available, including Gaussian and homogeneous intensity profiles.

Environmental Conditions: The module operates within a case temperature range of -10°C to +50°C and can be stored at temperatures from -10°C to +80°C. It supports a maximum humidity of 90% non-condensing and has an MTTF of over 30,000 hours for wavelengths 635nm to 685nm and over 100,000 hours for 785nm to 980nm.

Applications: The ZM18B is suitable for various industries including machine vision, automotive, wood, food & beverage, medical, metal, stone, textile, and leather.

Compliance: The product conforms to CE directives 2004/108/EC and 73/23/ECC, excluding connection type.
