Page 5: Basic Safety Instructions
Basic Safety Instructions Intended Use The PocketMonitor (PMT) is exclusively intended for measurements which are carried out in or nearby the optical path of high power lasers. Other forms of usage are improper. To ensure a safe operation, the device must only be operated according to the terms stipulated by the manufacturer. - Page 6 PocketMonitor PMT • Depending on the laser source, it may be necessary to wear suitable protective clothing or protective gloves. • Please protect yourself from direct laser radiation, scattered radiation as well as from beams generated from laser radiation (e.g. by using appropriate shielding walls or by weakening the radiation to a harmless level).

Page 7: Symbol Explanation
PocketMonitor PMT Symbol Explanation The following symbols and signal words indicate possible residual risks: DANGER means that death or serious physical injuries will occur if necessary safety precautions are not taken. WARNING means that death or serious physical injuries can occur if necessary safety precautions are not taken. - Page 8 PocketMonitor PMT Further symbols that are not safety-relevant: Here you can find useful information and helpful hints. With the CE marking the manufacturer guarantees that his product is in conformity with the EC guidelines. Call for action Call for observing (visual feedback from the device or the software)

The measuring device must only be operated in a non condensing atmosphere. System Description The PocketMonitor consists of an absorber and a display as well as an operating unit. Both components are connected via a swivel joint. In a folded state, the absorber protects the display as well as the operating elements from damages of any kind. -
Page 10: Measuring Principle
NOTICE Danger of damage Hard impacts and dropping the device can damage electronical com- ponents. Handle the measuring device with care both during transport and assembly! If possible, please use the PRIMES transport box for the transportation. Revision 01/2017 EN... -
Page 11: Assembly
Read and strictly observe the safety instructions in chapter „1 Basic Safety Instructions“ on page 5. Assembly Position The PocketMonitor can be assembled in any position. However, the absorber has to be thermally insulated in order to ensure that no heat can dissipate, and the measuring result is not distorted. -
Page 12: Removal From The Laser System
In close proximity to the focus the power density could reach a value that would make the coating of the absorber melt. Never operate the PocketMonitor in close proximity to the focus but only use the defocused area. Not the power but the power density is important. -

Page 15: Measuring
Measuring WARNING Danger of injuries due to scattered radiation The PocketMonitor must not be held into the beam path by hand! Put the PMT onto a thermally isolating, temperature-resistant surface that simultaneously fixates the device. Wear safety goggles that are adapted to the laser wavelength used. -
Page 16: Measurement Preparation
The on-time of the laser should be set according to the desired measuring time (10 s or 20 s). If the laser is turned on and off manually, the temporal inaccuracy also has an influence on the measurement value. The PocketMonitor does not check the laser irradiation time. - Page 17 PocketMonitor PMT After it has been cooled down with water, it has to be ensured that the absorber is completely dry again. The heat capacity of the water is extremely high, and evapo- rated water would distort the measurement result.

Check the temperature of the absorber: To ensure the highest measurement accu- racy, the absorber temperature has to equal ... - Page 19 PocketMonitor PMT CAUTION Risk of burns! After a measurement, the absorber can be very hot (more than 100 °C, depending on the absorber version for a duration of up to 30 minutes). Only touch the display- or operating unit or the swivel joint of the device.

(type 01p and 002p). Values are higher than expected. • Difference between the set irradiation time at the PocketMonitor and the actual irradiation time by means of the laser. The display shows 100 Watt instead of • The temperature button was accidentally 3000 Watt (as expected). -
Page 22: Maintenance
PocketMonitor PMT Maintenance We strongly recommend a regular service carried out by the manufacturer. The typical service interval is 12 to 18 months. 10.1 Exchanging the Battery The operating time of the battery is sufficient for approximately 10,000 measurements or at least 2 years. The battery is checked during every service and is exchanged if necessary. -
Page 23: Current Loop Interface (Option)
PocketMonitor PMT Current Loop Interface (OPTION) This version of the separate display- and operating unit has an additional 4-20 mA-current output. The power is given out by means of an impressed current. A power of 0 Watt equals a current of approx. 4 mA. The current of a maximum of 20 mA equals 16 bits. - Page 24 24 volts for the current loop. With regard to the external supply of the PocketMonitor with 24 V, the device does not turn itself off automatically but is constantly in operation. The measurement can be started any time by means of a start impulse for pins 4 or 5.
