System description
The BeamMonitor BM+ (see Fig. 5.1) is a device to analyze the spatial power density distribution of the
raw beam of CO
2
or NIR lasers. Results of the measurements are beam radius, beam position and power
density profile.
The BeamMonitor BM+ is using the scanning measuring principle. Its dimensions are adapted to the raw-
beam diameter which needs a larger aperture. The BeamMonitor BM+ has no z-axis. Due to the availability
of different detectors, it is possible to use the BeamMonitor BM+ with a wide range of wavelengths and
power densities.

Conditions at the installation site
•
The measuring devices must not be operated in a condensing atmosphere.
•
The ambient air must be free of organic trace gases.
•
Please protect the devices from water and dust.
•
Operate the measuring devices in closed rooms only.
DANGER
Fire an explosion hazards due to laser radiation
Scattered radiation is developed during the measurement.
Do not store flammable materials or highly flammable substances in the area of measurement.
