The crazy AMS Puzzle

1700-1750 nm; Output Energy ≤50 µJ; Repetition Rate ≤10 kHz; Pulse Width 2-5 ns; Pump Laser and OPO in Single Rugged Housing Our 170P0-1-50-S MID-IR tunable OPO (optical parametric oscillator) source combines pump laser and OPO in a single, rugged housing and generates laser pulses in the mid-infrared (MID-IR) range around 1700 nm – the applications for such wavelengths are mainly in the field of photoacoustic imaging, in addition to gas chromatography and other analysis tasks. The OPO’s wavelength can be tuned in an extended range from 1700 nm to 1750 nm. Other wavelength ranges (e.g. 1500 nm to 2000 nm) are available on demand. Using an electro-optical Q-switch, very short pulses with typical pulse widths of 2 ns to 5 ns are generated. If different wavelengths, repetition rates, pulse energies or pulse widths is what you are looking for, the laser experts at Elforlight (an AMS Company) are happy to specify, design and manufacture your customized OPO solution. Get in touch with us now to discuss your project’s requirements!

No. of Connectors 24-36; Resolution 0.1 °C; Accuracy ±2 °C; Max. Temperature +155 °C; Stability ±2 °C; Horizontal Curing 0°, +15°, -15°; Step-Cure Capability Connected Fibers’ patented 1Cure is the industry’s first intelligent expoxy curing oven for both horizontal and vertical curing applications. The 1Cure oven features both soak and ramp temperature profile curing capability, a 4” full-color LCD touchscreen as well as network connectivity with remote programmability and access The system stores up to 999 programs. The temperature of the actual connector fixture is monitored and controlled rather than the traditional method of monitoring the hot plate. This eliminates the temperature error created by the thermal offset between these two surfaces in a typical curing oven. 1Cure is also available with an optional advanced cooling system for reducing cycle times between ramp (step) cure profiles. The ramp cure technology eliminates fiber cracking especially on larger core fibers by utilizing ramp and soak cycles. This significant advancement is useful for large-core and multi-fiber applications. It also allows to standardize on one epoxy for various applications by customizing time and temperature profiles. The oven features a horizontal curing base with a removable 24 position fixture for MT (MPO) and a convertible lid providing cable access to a block to accommodate up to 96 single fiber termini (72 for the 1Cure-200) to cure in a vertical position. The internal 15° tilt mechanism for the horizontal cure will allow for 0° or 15° curing angle to prevent fibers from retreating during bare, buffered or ribbon fiber applications. The 1Cure is designed by Connected Fibers to meet all industry performance and safety standards providing leading technology for the heat curing process of fiber optic termini. The oven is suited for all production environments and for all industry standard connectors and ferrules with use of heat-cure epoxies, including MT (MPO) connectors.

560-610 nm; Pulse Energy >5, >50 µJ; Repetition Rate >1, >10 kHz; Min. Pulse Width <2, <5 ns; Jitter <±1 ns Our DL series of dye lasers is a compact, easy to install complement to our DPSS laser products. Designed primarily to operate with the SPOT DPSS lasers for short pulses, the dye lasers can also be combined with the FQS DPSS lasers to produce higher energies. DL series dye lasers convert the output of our pulse lasers to other useful wavelengths, whilst maintaining the benefits of short pulses and high repetition rates. The self-contained dye reservoir and pump enable operation for several weeks on one dye fill. Options of broad and narrow wavelength bandwidth (15 nm to <1 nm) are available.

Two recirculating chillers in one cabinet, up to 900 W cooling capacity, 24 V DC power supply The DmRC-C-900-24-KIT is a development kit suitable for applications requiring high water cooling performance in the smallest of spaces for water coolers. Based on miniature compressors, this "mini Recirculating Chiller" development kit provides two independent water cooling systems in a 19-inch rackmount insert, which can provide a combined maximum cooling capacity of 900 W. With this double chiller concept, DmRC-C-900-24-KIT can cool two heat loads independently of each other – the target temperatures for each of the two heat loads can be set individually. The compressors’ BLDC motors are speed controlled and offer low vibration and low noise throughout the speed range. Since the water circuit is pressurized, DmRC-C-900-24-KIT manages with very small tanks (2 x 275 ml) – without the risk of cavitation in the smoothly operating centrifugal pumps. Overpressure on the cooling system also prevents the ingress of bacteria and oxygen and thus extends the maintenance intervals. An electric air pump generates the pressure on the two water circuits and is also used for automatic complete filling and emptying of the cooling water circuits, simplifying the maintenance of the system. For customer requirements that cannot be covered by the DmRC-C-900-24-KIT, our thermal management specialists at AMS Technologies are happy to develop a completely tailor-made solution and offer all services from development through to series production. Specifications: Power Supply: <700 W (max. 29 A @ 24 V DC) Cooling Capacity (approximately): 900 W (2 x 450 W, TWATER +25 °C, TAMBIENT +25 °C) Temperature Range: ± 1 K (over-/undershoot at 250 W load ON/OFF), ± 0.2 K (continuous operation) Hydraulic Parameters: flow rate 1 lpm to 5.5 lpm @ 1 bar to 0.2 bar pressure drop at heat load Cabinet: rack-mount, 19”, aluminium housing Weight: 20 kg (Dry Weight: 19 kg) Dimensions (WxHxD): 440 mm x 220 mm x 350 mm (main body, without flanges)
