Laser systems operating above 100 kilowatts are no longer futuristic but measuring them accurately and safely is still a major engineering challenge.

To meet this need, Ophir Photonics developed a 150 kW water-cooled calorimetric sensor designed for ultra-high-power laser applications such as industrial cutting and drilling, high-power fiber laser testing, and directed energy systems.

In the video, we show:

  • How extreme laser power is safely absorbed and dissipated
  • How calorimetric measurement works using water temperature and flow
  • Key performance highlights, including ultra-low back reflection and fast response time
  • How the system integrates with standard Ophir meters and software

Watch the video to see how ultra-high-power laser measurement works in practice:
