Series-level technical context
Engineering context for a thin CW Lasers record
This model has no standalone PDF and only a small number of model-specific rows. The values below are traceable context from 12 wavelength-near cw lasers records; they define the parameters to qualify, but are not substituted for an order-specific datasheet.
Typical operating fields in the series
- • Output / average power: 1~100 mW
- • Output / average power: 1~50 mW
- • Output / average power: 1~20 mW
- • Operating mode: CW
- • Power stability (rms, 4 hours ± 3°C): <2%, <1%, <0.5%
Beam-quality tolerance context
Nearby series records state M²: ~3.0, M²: <2, <1.5, Beam divergence, full angle (mrad): ~1.0, and Beam divergence (mrad): <3.0. These are series context, not guaranteed values for U-496-SF; confirm them on the order-specific datasheet.
