The QX series sets the standard for KD*P electro-optic Q-switches. These devices provide reliable, stable performance for a diverse range of laser applications.
We offer a unique rebuild program that extends the QX lifetime. All rebuilt units are upgraded with the latest product improvements and are returned with a new one-year warranty.
|
The standard configuration employs a broad band, high damage threshold Sol Gel AR coating for improved durability and performance. The QX series is also available with index matching fluid and a choice of end caps. All units are tested for optic and electric function and are supplied with a
QA inspection report. |
