Thank you for choosing a Scientech laser power and energy meter. Scientech, an ISO 9000
registered company, and employees are pleased to provide you with a product designed for
years of reliable service. Please read this manual completely before using your
indicator. This information will enable you to fully utilize the equipment and should be
located nearby for reference. The indicator is intended to be used only in the manner
outlined in this manual. Misuse of the equipment may cause product failure.
Note: The Models S310 and S310D are identical to each other in every respect except the
analog meter. The S310 has both an analog and digital display. The S310D has only a
digital readout. All references to the S310 are intended to include the S310D except
where noted. Also the words "indicator" and "meter" are synonymous.

CAUTION: SPECULAR REFLECTION
NOTE: Please exercise caution when using HD detectors. They exhibit spectral reflection of between
7% and 33%, of the input power, back out of the aperture. Please refer to the preceding bar graph to
determine the reflectance for the wavelength you are measuring. These detectors should be treated as a partial
mirror or any other type of reflective optic and the appropriate caution level observed, especially at the CO2
wavelength.

ENVIRONMENTAL REQUIREMENTS
This product is intended for indoor use at altitudes up to 2000 meters, Pollution Degree 2 in accordance with
IEC 664 and transient overvoltages according to Installation Categories (Overvoltage Categories) II. Note that
each of the above detectors will not pass the IEC 801 Publication, Part 3, Radiated Electromagnetic Field
Requirements. The system, meter and detector, is designed to measure radiation within the test's radiation
band. The detectors were held outside the radiated electromagnetic field during this test. It is up to the user
to be aware of RF fields present during measurements and their effects if any on those measurements.
UNPACKING AND SETUP
The meter, detectors, and accessories are shipped in custom packing materials. All packing materials should
be saved for future damage free shipments. Before making any connections, verify that the power (VAC)
requirement shown on the power entry module is compatible with the actual AC power outlet to which the
indicator will be connected. insert into the fuse holder. Plug the fuse holder back into the power entry
module. The power requirement of the instrument is easily changed by removing the fuse holder and
voltage selector which is the center portion of the power entry module. To remove, insert a screwdriver
into the right side of the fuse holder and pry out. Slide the voltage selector out, flip over and re-insert into
the fuse holder. Plug the fuse holder back into the power entry module.
Analog Needle Zero Adjust (S310 only)
The black slotted button located just below the display allows screwdriver adjustment to set the analog needle
to zero. This adjustment should be made before connecting the detector.
Connecting Detectors
Refer to the following drawing of the S310 rear panel. A 3 meter mini-DIN type cable with "D" shaped
connectors comes with Astral and Ultra calorimeters. A 3 meter BNC type cable comes with Vector
pyroelectric detectors. The input jacks on the rear panel of the S310 are labeled "Ultra", "Vector", and
"Astral" for hook up of these three types of detectors. Note: Only one detector should be plugged in at any
time. Note that the flat side of the DIN type cables should be oriented up when plugging in to the S310. Also
included with each detector is a 1/2" diameter mounting post for installing the detector to your working
surface. An optional mounting base, Scientech Model 301-019, is also available for holding the detector/post
assembly upright. Astral calorimeters are sensitive to all types of thermal input. Due to handling of the
calorimeter during setup and possible environmental temperature differences, thermal gradients may exist in
the calorimeter. Several minutes before usage may be required to allow the calorimeter to reach thermal
equilibrium. Note: When using a 25 mm Astral calororimeter for measuring average power levels below 30
mW and single pulse energy levels below 30 mJ, a Scientech Model 36-0203A, Isoperibol Enclosure, is
required. The isoperibol enclosure should not be used at average power levels above 30 mW, and single
pulse energy levels above 100 mJ because unwanted heat build up will occur.
