Pasco Scientific OS-8475 Instruction Sheet

Instruction Sheet
for the PASCO
Model OS-8475
Introduction
The OS-8475 Diode Laser for PASCO Optics Systems
is designed specifically as an integrated alternate light
source for the PASCO OS-8500 Introductory Optics
System. This accessory can also be used as an inexpen-
sive light source option for PASCO OS-9250
(advanced) or OS-9251 (intermediate) Optics Systems.
The magnetic steel base of the Diode Laser incorporates
an "alignment edge" that, when placed against the
alignment rail of your PASCO Optics System, aligns
the laser beam to the optical path of your existing
system's components. The laser diode assembly can
also be rotated 360° adding flexibility to experiment set
up. See Figure 1.
