843-R and 843-R-USB are low cost Laser Power Meters capable of measuring from pW to thousands of Watts, in an ergonomically designed compact body.
843-R and 843-R-USB are low cost Laser Power Meters capable of measuring from pJ and pW to thousands of Watts, in an ergonomically designed compact body. A single shot energy pulse measurement can be done. 843-R has two display modes: a large digital display with a bar graph or with a high resolution simulated analog needle. A simple configuration of the measurement parameters and hot-swappable capability allow the user take measurements quickly even with multiple sensors. Recalibration in every 12 months is recommended.
The case is made of molded high impact plastic with optimized angle kickstand. Rubberized sides provide an easy grip of the power meter and protection against damage.
843-R can be operated either by battery or from an AC power supply (included with either a US style plug or a European style plug) with the charger plugged in at all times. Its backlight allows illumination of the power meter in low light conditions.
843-R-USB has the same performance as the 843-R with the addition of USB communication to the PC. Install PMManagerTM application software to use with the 843-R-USB and turn your PC into a full optical power meter workstation. We also provide a COM object for system integrators as well as a LabVIEW library.
PMManager is a powerful application software controlling and taking measurement data out of the new Model 843-R-USB Laser Power Meter. It turns a PC into a laser power multi-channel analysis workstation.The PMManager software features include:
Extensive graphic display of data:
Line Plot, Histogram, Pulse Chart, and Simulated Analog Needle
Multiple data sets on separate graphs on the same screen
Advanced measurement processing
Power/energy density, scale factor, normalize against a reference
Multi-channel comparisons
User defined mathematical equations: channels A/B, etc.
Connect additional devices during active measurements
Data logging for future review
Displayed graphically or saved in text format
Exported to an Excel spreadsheet.
Printing of graphs and data.
Interfaces and supports data logging with Newport’s devices
PMManagerApplication Window, with Histogram plot of only one channelPMManagerApplication Window, with Line graph of only one channel
High Performance Photodiode Sensors (Automatic attenuator on/off detection and sensor temperature compensation won\'t work with this power meter)
see Photodiode Power Sensor Selection Guide for a complete power meter/detector compatibility chart.
The Newport detectors with the legacy /CM models having the Round 8-pin DIN calibration modules requires an 843-DIN adapter. The legacy 841-DIN adapter is not compatible with 843-R.
The connector of the 818-xx/DB models come with a DB15 connector (left), while the 818-xx/CM models come with a round 8-pin connector.
