Aperture Seal
– prevents dust from damaging the output coupler during shipping. Remove the red self-
adhesive label before applying power to the laser.
Shutter Switch (Keyswitch models only)
– manually closes the laser aperture and interrupts power to the RF
section(s). Do not use the shutter to partially block the beam or to control output power.
Laser Exit Aperture
– provides an opening from which the beam is emitted when lasing.
Optical Accessory Mounting
– provides six threaded holes for mounting standard beam delivery components.
When considering other components not specifically designed as Series 48 options, please consult the
factory for restrictions since excessive weight may cause damage to the laser. To prevent damage to the
laser when mounting optical components, the 8–32 mounting screws must not extend further than 4.8 mm
(0.1875 in) into the laser faceplate.
Diode Pointer Power Connector (optional)
– provides a reg5 VDC, 100 mA output and is internally
protected against short circuits by an auto-resetting fuse. The Diode Pointer Power connector is not
installed unless the optional Diode Pointer is ordered when the laser is manufactured.
