System integration

Integration and compatibility

Use these checks to connect MIL-N-1940 to the surrounding optical, mechanical and control system. Every value shown is taken from this model's own specification record.

Thermal management
Cooled method: Air Cooled · Operating temperature (℃): 15-30
Provide the stated cooling method and keep the laser-head base thermally coupled; temperature drift moves wavelength, output power and beam pointing.
Beam parameters at the output
Transverse mode: Near TEM00 · Beam divergence, full angle (mrad): <2
Size the downstream optics from the stated beam diameter and divergence rather than from the aperture of the housing, and confirm the polarisation state before specifying isolators or polarising optics.
