The Ariel measures high power industrial lasers of up to 8kW by measuring the energy of a short
exposure to this power. The laser is set to deliver a pulse of from 0.05 to several seconds. The Ariel then
measures the energy and duration of the laser pulse and calculates the power. The Ariel is designed to
work without water cooling.
The Ariel is versatile and durable with a dust sealed enclosure and detachable antireflection coated
protective window. It also comes with a detachable diffuser for measuring very high power density
beams.

usage in tight spaces such as an additive manufacturing chambers as well as for production process
quality control and R&D.
