Short Exposure High Power Sensors with Industrial Communications Protocol: Helios Plus
The Helios Plus measures high-power industrial lasers of up to 12 kW by measuring the energy of a short time exposure to this power. The laser is set to pulse from 0.3 to several seconds. It measures the energy and exposure time of this sample of the power, and from this calculates the power. By keeping the pulse energy under 5 kJ, there is no need for water cooling and the sensor can be kept to a compact size.
The Helios Plus works in the YAG fundamental and second harmonic wavelength ranges. The sensor is housed in a dust-resistant industrial body to keep the Helios Plus in clean working order even under harsh factory conditions. Its protective cover can be opened and closed remotely to protect the sensor when not in use. The included protective window is antireflection coated to reduce back reflection of the high power beam. The Helios Plus has two versions of communications - the Profinet and RS232 or EtherNet/IP and RS232.
