Request InfoMKS Instruments Inc.The Ophir L2000W-PF-120 Laser Power/Energy Sensor from MKS Instruments Inc. is a water-cooled sensor for measuring large pulsed lasers. The thermal sensor measures powers from 1 to 2000 W and energies from 6 to 6000 J over the 0.3- to 2.2-µm spectral range. The L2000W-PF-120 features a large 120-mm aperture to accommodate high energy densities and short pulses. A fast, 7-s response time balances the need to measure fast drifts and instabilities with the ability to handle high energy levels. The L2000-PF-120 laser sensor is designed for use with large diameter pulsed ns or ps...See full productRelated content from Photonics MediaPRODUCTSPhotonics.com 4/26/2022Laser Power SensorThe Ophir® IPM-10KW laser power sensor from MKS Instruments Inc. delivers high accuracy and repeatable measurements in rough production environments.
