The S120C power head is designed for general purpose optical power measurements. The head is optimized for small thickness to fit in tight spaces. The high sensitive photodiode with large active area in combination with a reflective, diffused ND filter enables power measurements up to 50 mW in free-space and fiber-based applications. A removeable annular VIS/IR viewing target allows conveniently centering the measured beam to the active area of the photo-diode. The target absorbs light from 400 to 640nm and 800 to 1700nm.

The S130VC with its slim design of only 5mm at the detector side is perfect to fit into tight optical setups. The ruggedized aluminum head with its large active area silicon photodiode can be held by hand or can be mounted with its 8-32 and M4 threaded mounting holes to posts and post holders.
A slideable ND filter enlarges the power range by approximately factor 100; the position of the filter is automatically recognized by the connected console after a few seconds for calculating the power level with the right responsivity value.
The S130VC is compatible with all new Thorlabs display units. A non-volatile memory in the sensor connector contains sensor information data and the NIST and PTB traceable calibration data.
