Model-specific conditions and limits
Conditions are retained only when the source states them. They are not reconstructed from a nominal range or wavelength.
Operating Instructions
-
Match the laser driver to the ER10000 laser.
The laser driver power supply must be properly matched to the laser.
The typical load voltage of the ER10000 is < 14 V, with an operating current of 100 A, pulse width < 4 ms, and a repetition rate of 5 Hz. For the exact operating parameters, please refer to the attached factory test report.
The laser driver power supply must meet these requirements; otherwise, the laser may fail to operate properly or could be overloaded and permanently damaged. Therefore, before wiring, carefully check the laser specification sheet and confirm that the laser is compatible with the selected driver. -
Always disconnect power before wiring.
Before making any connections, make sure the power is switched off and completely isolated. During wiring, carefully check the positive and negative terminals of the laser and ensure correct polarity. After the wiring is completed, perform a thorough inspection to confirm that all connections are correct, in order to avoid short circuits, reverse polarity, and other faults. At the same time, make sure all terminals are firmly secured to prevent poor contact due to loose wiring. -
Set operating parameters according to the factory test report.
After confirming that the wiring is correct, set the corresponding parameters on the driver according to the attached factory test report. Once the parameters are correctly set, turn on the driver; the laser should then operate normally.
1535 nm Pulsed-Source Integration Context
Pulse energy, pulse width, repetition rate, beam divergence, drive waveform, thermal path and the receiving architecture must be assessed together in the finished instrument. The model PDF controls its source values; system range is not inferred from a pulse-energy value, a neighbouring model, or wavelength alone.
Pulse energy describes emitted energy per pulse; its effect cannot be separated from pulse width, divergence, optical losses, receiver threshold and the stated target/atmosphere conditions. It is not a substitute for a model-specific near- or long-range acceptance test.
Source-stated application context
Application labels indicate evaluation context, not automatic fitness for a finished system.
No separate source-stated application section is available in this release. Confirm the use case, integration environment and acceptance method with ERDI engineering.
Confirm short- and long-distance acceptance conditions
- Define minimum distance, target material, reflectance, size and incidence angle.
- Check receiver recovery, optical-axis overlap and strong-return handling at the intended near limit.
- Verify supply tolerance, peak current, grounding, interface levels, connector and timing with the ordered revision.
- For long-distance acceptance, state target geometry, visibility, weather, background and required detection probability.
- Test with the installed window, boresight, field of view, enclosure and thermal path rather than a bare module alone.
- Evaluate accessible emission, labels and failure conditions again for the finished laser product under IEC 60825-1.
Questions to resolve before design release
Does a stated maximum range apply to every target?
No. A stated range must be read with its target and environmental conditions. Dark, small, oblique, wet or partially obscured targets and degraded visibility can reduce received signal.
Does 1535 nm itself establish the laser classification?
No. Classification concerns accessible emission from the finished laser product. The module statement and final instrument assessment are distinct.
Can a long-range claim be used as the minimum range?
No. Minimum-distance behaviour depends on the particular transmit/receive geometry, receiver timing and strong-return management documented for the model and host system.
