laser technology in an innovative aluminum tube design. J Series lasers
utilize state-of-the-art surface mount electronics, newly patented RF excitation technology, and fully
CE-compliant systems for EMI containment, heat removal, and laser safety. In the 10 W to 50 W range
of continuous optical output, these lasers represent an ideal balance between proven, mature laser tube
technology and reliable, simplified electronic control.
Series 48 features include:
■ Compact resonator design
■ RF power supply integrated into laser chassis
■ Keyswitch air- or water-cooled models available
■ OEM (no Keyswitch/no shutter) air- or water-cooled models available
Series 48 nomenclature
Series 48 lasers are divided into two distinct functional categories: Keyswitch and OEM models. In
addition to a manual Keyswitch, all Keyswitch-equipped lasers include a manual Shutter Switch that allows
the laser output aperture to be blocked. OEM lasers do not incorporate either a manual keyswitch or
shutter assembly since they are designed as components for integration into a larger processing system by
an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) or System Integrator who bears the responsibility for
meeting the appropriate laser safety requirements for Class IV laser systems.
Caution
serious
personal
injury
Please read this manual completely before using your laser. To
prevent injury to personnel or damage to the laser, follow all safety
precautions, handling, and setup instructions as described herein.
