Chapter 5 Installation
The external Tsunami
®
system components are shown in Figure 4-1 of the
previous chapter. The internal components are shown in Figure 4-3 and
Figure 4-4 of that chapter. If you need information on specific components,
refer to Chapter 4.
Laser Installation
Most of the tools and equipment you need to set up the Tsunami and pump
lasers are in your accessory kit. Some pieces, like the GTI for ps-configured
systems, are in separate containers.
Installing the Pump Laser
Figure 5-1: Typical Tsunami Head and Pump Laser Head Layout
1. Set the Millennia
®
pump laser on a suitable optical table and align it so
you can configure your system as shown in Figure 5-1.
2. Turn on the pump laser according to its instruction manual and allow it
to warm up.
The following installation procedures are provided for reference only;
they are not intended as guides to the initial installation and setup of
your laser. Please call your Spectra-Physics service representative to
arrange an installation appointment, which is part of your purchase
agreement. Allow only personnel qualified and authorized by Spectra-
Physics to install and set up your laser. You will be charged for repair of
any damage incurred if you attempt to install the laser yourself, and
such action might also void your warranty.
Note
Millennia Diode-Pumped Laser
Tsunami Mode-Locked
Ti:sapphire Laser
Position the pump laser power supply and chiller so that their warm air
exhaust does not adversely affect the stability of the lasers on the table.
Caution!
