Laser Power Meter

ADM 1000 laser power meterThe ADM -1000 offers laser users a new level of power-measuring performance combined with the ease of using a hand-held power meter; a comprehensive suite of detectors are available to ensure all applications in the work environment are addressed. This highly functional meter and detector system is available at a very affordable price.

Lasermet ADM – 1000 Meter: A New Force in Advanced Laser Power Measurement

The ADM 1000 is a user-friendly, lightweight hand-held power meter with a response rate that is effectively instantaneous. The meter possesses the ability to make consistent, accurate measurements of peak and average power. For pulsed laser users, the ADM-1000 offers the precision to measure and display waveforms up to 400kHz.

ADM 1000 laser power meterThis versatile Power Meter System has a wide variety of applications including:

  • Production calibration
  • Automatic laser stability testing
  • Direct peak power measurement for pulses of 4 µs or longer
  • Pulse energy measurement
  • Pulsed laser characterization
  • Oscilloscope function
  • Instantaneous measurements
  • Laboratory or field use
  • Medical laser output power / energy check
  • Measurements in confined areas
  • Laser tuning

ADM 1000 Key Features:

  • Super-fast response times down to 700 ns using the Lasermet Advanced Detector Interface
  • Exceptionally high accuracy and repeatability
  • Peak power, energy per pulse and average power measurements
  • Easy-to-use hand-held instrument
  • Choice of compatible photodiode and thermal heads; auto head detection
  • Patented speed-up circuitry and stabilization electronics for thermal heads
  • Fully calibrated and traceable to international and UK National Physical Laboratory standards
  • Illuminated display and keypad
  • Digital and bar readout
  • Graphical oscilloscope mode - displays pulse waveforms up to 400kHz with calculation cursors to display energy, power, time, frequency
  • Auto or manual ranging
  • Interface to PC via USB connection

ADM 1000 Graphical Display

ADM 1000 laser power meter displayAt the core of the system is the Lasermet Advanced Detector Interface (ADI) which has been specially configured to enable the ADM-1000 to measure significantly smaller and faster signals than conventionally-used meters. The ADI allows the electronics to be placed close to and optimized for each detecting head thereby achieving maximum performance every time.

Advanced Digital Meter ADM -1000 Detector Heads

Standard photodiode heads.

These are supplied complete with integrating spheres for maximum reduction of reflections, easy alignment and high accuracy. UV- and IR-enhanced options are available

Compact photodiode heads

Designed for limited spaces with no integrating sphere, this head has a depth of only 25mm. These are available in standard and UV-enhanced options

Thermal heads

These have been designed with performance and ease of use in mind. They include:

  • patented advanced speed-up circuitry giving a response time of 20 ms
  • patented advanced integrated temperature stabilization circuitry to massively reduce drift and thermal interference
