WS/5 Precision

 Standard measurement range 350-1120 nm
 Relative accuracy 5*10-6
 Measurement speed 300 Hz (Data collection 600 Hz)
 Single integrated interferometer for compact design
 Capable of measuring cw and pulsed lasers
 Various options available

The WS/5 Wavemeter is a sensitive and compact wavelength meter for laser sources. It is capable of measuring pulsed and continuous laser sources. Both, optical elements and assigned electronics are housed in a compact, thermally isolated casing.

Easy Set-up

The WS/5 Wavemeter is connected to the PC via the USB interface. After installation of the supplied software, the device directly is ready for measurement. There is no warm-up time under constant ambient conditions.

Guaranteed Future

The design of the WS/5 Wavemeter permits the integration of additional optical components and software modules, allowing custom solutions for customer specific application even years after purchase.
For further particulars on the available options we refer you to our options page.

(11) The cw power interpretation in [µW] compares to an exposure of 1 s.
       For other exposures, the energy needs to be divided by the exposure time to get the power.
