SCIENTECH CALIBRATION SERVICE
The Astral™ AI310 power meters and calorimeters are calibrated at Scientech’s authorized service
center and the calibration constants were provided with the detector.
Scientech detectors include a NIST traceable calibration certificate, to document that you are getting the
most accurate laser measurement possible.
An optimum calibration of each detector is ensured by Scientech’s highly trained and skilled service
team. Excessive energy or peak power density can damage a detector. Safe operating limits are specified
in the detector specifications. If your calculated energy or peak power conditions exceed those specified
for the model, optical attenuation may be used as a solution.
Electric substitution heater coils are available as an option that allows customer to perform their own
field calibration. These electric heaters are only available for new detector purchases only by adding an
“H” to the end of the detector part number when placing an order.
Scientech recommends that a complete calibration be performed annually to verify system accuracy.
Please visit Scientech’s website at www.scientechinc.com to obtain an RMA (returned material
authorization) number and complete the form noting that you are requesting calibration of your detector.
You may also contact our Product Service Department at (800)525-0522 or (303)444-1361 or Fax
(303)444-9229 or email inst@scientechinc.com. Be prepared to provide model number, serial number
along with contact information. to arrange for a NIST traceable, factory calibration. Scientech calibrates
the detector with its power meter for the same price.
