1 - GENERAL
Laser Point’s OEM Detector Heads of AH Series are power and energy measurement devices
designed for their integration in laser sources or laser machines for direct monitoring. They can be
applied to all kind of laser sources and machines to allow OEMs with diagnostic tools that coupled
with leaky mirrors or splitters can continuously monitor laser sources and laser systems.
Laser Point’s AH Detector Heads are thermopile detector units based on a sensor integrated with
an amplifying/accelerating electronics and hosted in a suitable mechanical housing, that according
to the power sustainable by the sensor are either convection air cooled (AHA) or water cooled
(AHW).
Unpacking and inspection
Each OEM Detector Head has been carefully inspected and tested prior to shipment. Unpack and
assure that no damage occurred during transport and handling. Any damage must be immediately
reported to Laser Point and to the Carrier.
Do not use any device if it looks damaged, or if you suspect that it does not operate properly.
Operating environment
Allow at least 5 minutes of warm up time after the turn-on to achieve maximum stability of the
electronics. Refer to the specs attached to this manual for environmental and operating conditions.
2 - INSTALLING THE AH OEM SENSOR HEAD SERIES
Installation must be performed by an operator qualified to
the use of electrically operated devices. LaserPoint is in
no way liable for any damage resulting from misuse, or
use above rated limits of the instrument.
2.1 - GENERAL
This series includes compact, conduction or water cooled
heads: the setup is made by a sensor disk, a housing, and
an electronic board providing amplification and acceleration
of natural response times of sensors and a connecting device.
Typical response times for AH series amplified
heads is approx 0.8 sec., depending on sensor
type. The maximum applicable power depends on cooling;
in any case do not exceed 1.5 times the rated maximum
power for short term operation (2 min max), for a properly
cooled sensor.
To avoid the sensor damage, be sure the laser
beam power/energy density does not exceed the
maximum rated power/energy density to prevent
the absorber coating damage.
Coating damage appears as discoloration or in worse cases, by the emerging of the sensor disk
metal. The coating damage can affect also significantly the measurement sensitivity, so for a safe
use refer to the attached specs.

2.2 –Amplifying/ Speed–Up Electronic Circuit
The AH Series is provided with an electronics circuit , accessible by removing the head back cover,
which provides the amplification and speed-up of the sensor signal.
The units comes with preliminary settings already made at LaserPoint in order to minimize
additional work by the customer.
Trimmers P1 and P2 should not be touched by operators since both Electrical Offsets and the
Time Constant which governs the speed-up of signal have been optimized in house.
Should any modification be done, you are kindly requested to contact LaserPoint before .
Trimmer P3 sets the Gain and thus the correct final calibration of the head. If LaserPoint is
informed about the laser wavelength being used, a pre-setting is provided so that just the final
fine tuning has to be done. In case the information is missing or not provided, the pre-setting is
made at 1064nm.
The AH Series can be biased by a voltage source supplying from ± 7VdC to ± 12VdC (Fig. 2.3.1) or
by a 14 to 24 VdC source in a floating configuration (Fig. 2.3.2). In the first configuration the
common wire is also used as reference for the signal; in the second one signal and bias wires are
separated.

2.3 - Installation of Air Convection Cooled Series
Mechanical installation of air convection cooled heads on site can be done by the two M3 mm x
6mm deep threaded holes located on a lateral side of the head. The hole centers are 30 mm spaced.
Always take care to align the beam the center of the sensor area.
Housings are optimized for the max power specified for each sensor, nevertheless it can be
necessary to enhance dissipation. In situations like poorly vented cabinets or when the head faces
warm air streams from fans, it is advisable to fix the head to a suitable additional heat sink:
1) A custom heat sink may be installed either onto the existing rear flange or , more efficiently,
directly against the main body of housing after the four M3 screws and the rear flange have been
removed. Always use a thin layer of heat transfer compound between the rear flange and the
detector main body to increase thermal conductivity.
2.4 - Installation of Water Cooled Series
Mechanical assembling of water cooled heads on site can be done by the two M3mm x 6mm deep
threaded holes located on a lateral side of the head. Always take care to align the beam coaxial to
the center of the sensor area.
1) Secure the resulting detector
assembly to a suitable holder (eg. a
right angle bracket or plate) keeping the
center of the sensor coaxial to the laser
beam.
2) Insert a 6mm O.D.- 4mm I.D. polyurethane hoses in the
Fittings; the water flow capacity of each head has been
optimized for the max power sustainable by the sensor: check
for proper water flow on the attached specifications.

2.5 - Mechanical Dimensions useful for Installation
AH Sensor Head Series have two foot prints: 50x50mm and 60x60mm. The lateral fixing holes are
M3x6 and are always centered respect to the body side. The four assembly screws on the front and
back side are M3 and are placed at 90 degrees on a diameter of 53mm in the heads with 50x50mm
body and on a diameter of 68mm in the heads with 60x60mm body.

4 - SAFETY
Warning
The users of Power/Energy measurement instruments must be trained to the use of lasers and their
associated risks (ref. EN 60825). LaserPoint is in no way liable for any damage resulting from
misuse, careless or use above rated limits for the instrument.
Important
