Absorption of HD Material
Warning: You must exercise caution when using HD detectors. They exhibit spectral reflection of
between 7% and 18%, of the input power, back out of the aperture. Please refer to Figure 1 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.

Figure 1. HD Absorption vs Wavelength
HD calorimeters might show “beam” marks on the absorbing surface. These marks are characteristic of
the material and do not affect the performance of the calorimeter. Do not rub off or remove the marks.
Polishing or cleaning the absorbing surface might change the performance of the calorimeter.
Please see the table at the end of this manual for specific absorption vs. wavelength information.
ENVIRONMENTAL SPECIFICATIONS
This product is intended for indoor use at altitudes up to 2000 meters, Pollution Degree 2 in accordance
with IEC 664 and transient over voltages according to Installation Categories (Overvoltage Categories)
II. Note that each of the above detectors will not pass the IEC 801 Publication, Part 3, Radiated

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.
CE Certification
All of the calorimeters listed in this manual have been certified for the European CE mark.
UNPACKING AND SETUP
The calorimeter and accessories are shipped in custom packing materials. All packing materials should be
saved for future damage free shipments.
Each detector has a 1/2" diameter mounting hole for installing the detector onto a mounting base assembly.
Screw the mounting base post into one of the mounting holes in the body of the calorimeter. Optional
mounting base assemblies are available for purchase from Scientech for mounting the detector/mounting
base assembly to an optical bench.
A 3 meter mini DIN interconnect cable is also included. If you are using a Scientech indicator, connect
the calorimeter to the indicator with the interconnect cable. Follow the detailed set up instructions that are
in the indicator’s instruction manual. If you are not using a Scientech indicator operating requirements are
contained in this manual.
Note: Vector™ calorimeters are sensitive to all types of thermal input. Due to the handling of the
calorimeter during setup and possible environmental temperature differences, thermal gradients may exist
in the calorimeter. Allow the calorimeter to sit undisturbed for several minutes to reach thermal
equilibrium before using.
Note: When using a 25mm Vector calorimeter for measuring average power levels below 30mW and
single pulse energy levels below 30mJ, a Scientech Model 36-0203A, Isoperibol™ Enclosure, is highly
recommended. The Isoperibol enclosure should not be used at average power levels above 30mW, and
single pulse energy levels above 100mJ because heat build-up will occur.

PN9458Q 8
CORRECTING VECTOR™ HD CALORIMETER OPERATING
PARAMETERS FOR USE AT DIFFERENT WAVELENGTHS
Scientech Vector calorimeters in general have a flat response to all wavelengths within their specified
spectral response. HD and HDX calorimeters are an exception to that rule and are calibrated at a specific
wavelength by adjusting the calorimeter’s gain circuitry for that wavelength. The calibration wavelength
is recorded in the Operating Parameters section at the front of the manual and on the detector’s serial tag.
When a HD or HDX calorimeter is used at a wavelength other than the calibration wavelength, the
calorimeter’s output sensitivity can be adjusted to compensate for the absorption rate at the new
wavelength as follows:
1. Find the absorption rate from the chart at the end of this manual for the calibration wavelength of
your calorimeter.
2. Find the absorption rate for the wavelength where you will be working.
3. Determine the new output sensitivity using the following formula:
absorption rate of new wavelength x output sensitivity (V/J) = output sensitivity for new
absorption rate of calibration wavelength wavelength from serial tag
NOTE: Due to variability in the manufacturing process the absorption characteristics of the HD model
calorimeters can vary in the UV region (190 to 400nm). Scientech recommends optical calibration at
266nm if the detector is to be used in the UV region instead of relying on an absorption rate in the chart
at the end of this manual.

power meter, but with a volt meter, you must apply +/-8Vdc to the mini DIN connector as shown in Figure
2. The voltage output of the calorimeter, from pin 8, should be connected to the positive side of the DVM
or chart recorder. All 3 of the grounds should be tied together at the negative side. Pins 2 and 3 are not
used.
Figure 2. Calorimeter mini DIN Connector Pin Out
Operation of VectorCalorimeters with a Digital Volt Meter
The calorimeters may be used with any digital volt meter (DVM) capable of reading 5 volts full scale.
1. Connect the output of the calorimeter to the DVM.
2. Select the DC volts mode.
3. Direct the laser beam on to the absorbing surface of the calorimeter.
4. When the display of the DVM has stabilized (about 2 minutes), calculate the laser power using the
formula:
W = V/S
where:
W = Laser power in watts
V = Voltage reading of the DVM in volts
S = Sensitivity of the calorimeter from page 2.

ELECTRIC SUBSTITUTION HEATING
For Vector calorimeters the electric substitution heating option must be ordered and installed at the factory
when the calorimeter is purchased. It cannot be retrofitted to a calorimeter at a later time. To calibrate
using electric substitution heating proceed as follows.
A. Remove the screws holding the calorimeter's ID tag and remove the plate to expose the circuit
board. Figure 3 shows the pin out of the calorimeter circuit board.
Figure 3. Vector Calorimeter Circuit Board
B. Connect a DVM to the test points labeled SUB and HTR on the calorimeter circuit board.
C. Measure the resistance of the substitution heater making sure to subtract the resistance of
the patch cables from the total resistance measurement. Compare this resistance to Rc in
the calibration data in the front of the manual. The two should agree within 2%. If not
contact Scientech.

PN9458Q 11
D. Remove the DVM. Connect a power supply to the SUB and HTR test points and connect
the DVM to monitor the power supply.
E. Connect a second DVM to the output and ground of the Vector calorimeter.
F. Apply Vh volts, stated in the calibration data you received with the calorimeter, to the
substitution heater.
G. Verify that the output voltage is one of the following values depending on the type of
calorimeter being tested:
0.750 volts for 25 mm calorimeters
0.333 volts for 50 mm calorimeters
H. If needed, adjust the calibration trim pot, R4 on the calorimeter circuit board, until the
voltage measured in step G is from the calibration data, is displayed by the indicator.

UNPACKING AND SET UP
The calorimeter and accessories are shipped in custom packing materials. All packing materials should
be saved for future damage free shipments for repair or calibration.
A ¾” diameter mounting post and mounting base are available for the larger calorimeters. The post screws
into the ¾” mounting hole in the body of the large calorimeter. Mount the post to your optical bench or
working surface.
If you are using a Scientech power meter, connect the calorimeter to the interface module and the interface
module to the indicator. Follow the detailed set up instructions that are in the power meter’s instruction
manual. If you are not using a Scientech power meter operating requirements are contained in this manual.
Note: Large aperture calorimeters are sensitive to all types of thermal input. Due to the handling of the
calorimeter during setup and possible environmental temperature differences, thermal gradients may exist
in the calorimeter. Allow the calorimeter to sit undisturbed for several minutes to, reach thermal
equilibrium, before using.
Cable Requirements for Large Calorimeters
Refer to Figure 1. The output of the calorimeter is connected directly to the DVM. Large aperture
calorimeters do not require any power. The voltage output is on pin 1 of the DIN connector and should
be connected to the positive side of the DVM. Ground is on pin 3 and should be connected to the negative
side. Pin 2 is not used.
