Powerful but low cost pulsed / QCW / CW test system for use in the lab as well as for OEM applications.
Ideal for
We offer this instrument with a variety of end stages covering current ranges from 250mA up to 20A in a compact enclosure and up to 1200A in 19” rack enclosures.
The LIV120 uses our extensive range of OPM150 laser power detector heads.
The measurement cycle typically takes less than 1s including the data transfer to the host computer.

We will gladly adapt, for example, the wavelength or the current to suit your application. Let us know your requirements.
The SDK is a fixed, free component when purchasing a device.
It comes with the source code of the application program (in VB.net) and a LabView VI with the basic functions of the instrument. A description of the communication with the devices and a list of the commands used is also included.
For some devices (currently LDD100, LIV120 in preparation) there is a dll file (library file) with documentation and exemplary applications in VB.net and LabView.
