Recently, MKS announced the launch of a brand new Ophir ® A 150 kW ultra-high power laser sensor designed specifically for measuring ultra-high power levels up to 150 kW. This sensor has excellent accuracy and reliability, suitable for industrial and defense fields.

This water-cooled calorimeter has a working wavelength range of 900-1100 nm and can measure power from 10 kW to 150 kW. Its extremely low reflectivity (<0.5%) ensures operational safety. The 150 kW sensor integrates a beam collector and measurement unit, designed to meet the growing demand for higher power in applications. Applications such as the development and testing of high-power fiber lasers, directional energy systems, and cutting and drilling in industrial production.

Ophir Photonics General Manager Reuven Silverman said, "Directed energy and industrial applications such as cutting are driving demand for higher power lasers, but so far there is no reliable solution for situations where power exceeds 120 kW. The Ophir 150 kW ultra-high power laser sensor takes high-power measurement to a new level. It provides accurate and reliable results for the research and production teams of high-power laser manufacturers and directed energy weapon developers. Whether integrated into third-party systems or used with easy-to-use Ophir software, this sensor is a powerful tool for ultra-high power laser measurements, providing reliability and operational efficiency.

The Ophir 150 kW ultra-high power sensor consists of two components: a beam collector for processing high-power laser absorption and heat dissipation, and a unit for measuring power levels. The measurement unit is equipped with an RS232 interface and an "intelligent connector" interface, which can be used in conjunction with MKS's Centauri, StarBright, StarLite, and other Ophir smart displays; Juno and Juno+compact USB PC interface; Juno RS, Pulsar, and Quasar virtual power and energy meters; And EA-1 Ethernet adapter.

The design of the 150 kW ultra-high power sensor fully considers flexibility. Cooling options include using tap water or deionized (DI) water. With a 200mm aperture, it is lightweight and measures 520x545x750mm in size. When not containing water, it weighs less than 60 kg.
