It features flexible data logging capabilities, which are selected using batch setup options.
Built-in file management capabilities make it easy to transfer stored data to an external computer by USB, serial interface, or even using the onboard flash memory.
Plus, data integrity is enhanced with the introduction of an improved external pulse trigger.
LabMax can also perform a number of statistical functions on accumulated data (minimum, maximum, mean, range, standard deviation), as well as offering trend charting, a tuning display and beam stability analysis.
The wide range of thermal, pyroelectric and semiconductor sensors available from Coherent enables LabMax to deliver high accuracy measurements of average power, pulse energy, repetition rate and beam position for pulsed and CW lasers operating from 190nm to 12um, over measurement ranges from 1nW to 30kW and 1nJ to 30J, from single shot to 10kHz.
In addition, LabMax offers a high level of convenience and ease of use.
Its large, tiltable display and 0-180deg tilt bail enable the meter to be viewed from virtually any angle, and rechargeable batteries make LabMax self-contained and completely portable.
Coherent supplied software and LabView drivers provide a range of options for external control and system integration.
LabMax is the ideal solution for an extremely broad spectrum of laser measurement tasks.
Typical examples include general laboratory use with CW, pulsed and even ultrafast lasers, data logging in production quality analysis settings, and monitoring of burn-in testing by engineering and product development personnel.
