Air-cooled Laser Beam Dump
BD-AC-16 and BD-AC-16TR
Lasermet’s air-cooled laser beam dump uses convection cooling to absorb laser beam energy when connected to a laser beam shutter. The air cooling system aids in absorbing beam energy and dissipates more laser power than a shutter itself.
A built-in temperature monitor is included in the upgraded models.
Description
Lasermet’s air-cooled beam dump is designed to be used with a suitable laser beam shutter with an aperture of 16mm. Lasermet’s air-cooled beam dump is intended to absorb and dissipate laser energy deflected from a laser shutter through convection cooling.
Temperature Read-out Monitor
The BD-AC-16 can be upgraded with built-in temperature read-out which allows users to monitor beam dump’s temperature during operation. To start operation connect a power supply to the power terminal port of the beam dump using a DC cable. The temperature unit can be in Celsius (°C) or Fahrenheit (°F).
Shutter Compatibility
The BD-AC-16 Series is compatible with the Lasermet’s series of laser beam shutter. These laser shutter are fitted with stainless steel blade and can be factory fitted with mirror, ceramic and copper blade when needed.
LS-20 High Integrity Laser Shutters
The LS-20 features a gravity-close blade and force-disconnect proving contacts.
LS-30 Series of Laser Shutters
The LS-30 features a spring-loaded blade that allows mounting in different orientations.
