Laser Measuring Instruments

Product Description

XL 80 laser unit

The XL 80 laser produces an extremely stable laser beam, with a wavelength that is traceable back to national and international standards.

Features and benefits

• Laser frequency accuracy0.05 ppm (parts per million) over 3 years is achieved by thermal control of the laser tube's length to within nanometres.
• Linear measurement accuracy0.5 ppm over the whole environmental range ie, from 0 C to 40 C (32 F to 104 F) and 650 mbar to 1150 mbar. Readings can be taken at up to 50 kHz, with a maximum linear measurement speed of 4 m/s and a linear resolution of 1 nm; even at maximum speed.
• Integrated USB means there is no requirement for a separate laser to PC interface.
• LED status lights indicate the laser status and signal strength, providing a convenient alternative to the software's on-screen indicators.
• Switchable between standard (40 m) and long (80 m) range modes.
• Analogue I/O port allows for analogue signal output and a trigger signal input.
• Warm-up time is less than 6 minutes.
• External, switch mode power supply ensures 90 V to 264 V flexibility in input voltage.
• CARTO software allows measurement of linear, angular, rotary axis, straightness and squareness. For other measurement modes LaserXL is required.
