Compliance label for BCF-series DDD laser systems operating at 488 nm

85 BCF Series
The 85 BCF-series fiber coupled, directly doubled diode laser provides up to 20 mW of stable output at 488 nm over a wide temperature range. Fiber delivery offers the opportunity for bulkhead mounting configurations as well as simplified optical alignment and system service at the factory and in the field. The superb beam quality, both circular and non-astigmatic, and low optical noise make them excellent direct replacements for air-cooled argon lasers in flow cytometry, confocal microscopy, capillary electrophoresis, DNA analysis and inspection and defect metrology. The small size, low power consumption, minimal heat-sinking requirements, and RS-232 control and monitoring interface are particularly suitable for compact self-contained systems and OEM applications.
