Thorlabs PM100USB power and energy meter head

Thorlabs PM100USB power and energy meter head

Product Features

Compatible with over 30 types of photodiodes, thermal and pyroelectric probes

Controlled and powered through USB

Includes calibration certificate

The PM100USB power and energy meter head is compatible with all of our C-series photodiodes, thermal and pyroelectric probes (except for ES408C). weStandard photodiode、Ultra-thin photodiode、integrating sphereandoptical fiberThe probe can measure a total optical power ranging from 100 pW to 20 W.Thermal powerThe probe can measure optical power ranging from 10 µ W to 200 W.Pyroelectric energyThe probe can measure energy from 10 µ J to 15 J with a repetition rate of 2 kHz. Note that the ES408C probe (available below) has a repetition frequency of up to 10 kHz and is not recommended for use with the PM100 USB header as it can only support a maximum repetition frequency of 3 kHz. An energy probe with voltage output ranging from 100 mV to 100 V can also be used. In addition, a photodiode with a maximum photocurrent of 5 mA, without amplification and grounded anode or cathode, and a thermistor with a maximum output voltage of 1 V can also be used.

This header can be operated and powered by a PC through a mini USB port. A reading rate of 300 samples per second can actively monitor signals while using the header.

Please note that PM100USB does not include a probe. For information on compatible probes, please refer to the attached probe instructions. Thorlabs provides recalibration services for PM100USB, which can be ordered below (model CAL-PM1 or CAL-PM1D). If you have a corresponding probe that needs to be traced back to NIST for recalibration, you can recalibrate the PM100USB with the probe at no additional cost (not suitable for certification calibration).
