Planar PIV and flow visualization
A thin illuminated section restricts the measurement region in a seeded wind or water tunnel. Match the sheet profile to the field of view and the camera depth of field.
Form a light sheet for planar particle image velocimetry and flow visualization. Adjustable working distance and a choice of fan angles let the optics be configured around the test section, incident beam and required sheet thickness.

Technical FAQ
The listed minimum is 0.5 mm, with an adjustable operating-distance range of 100–30000 mm. These figures do not guarantee that thickness across the entire range. Confirm the thickness and uniformity at the selected distance with the actual input beam.
