Please check prior to operation, if the indicated line voltage range on the power supply matches with your local mains voltage! If you want to use your own power supply, you can ask Thorlabs for an appropriate power connector cable. -
Page 8: Operating Instruction
In case of open beam, make sure that the beam is aligned properly to the detector input. If ne- cessary, use a focusing lens in front of the detector. If the PDF10x is used in fiber based applications we recommend a Thorlabs fiber connector ad- apter for coupling between fiber and PDF10x. Please see Ordering Codes and Accessories for details. -

In most cases an electrically isolated post (see Thorlabs parts TRE or TRE/M) will sup- press electrical noise coupling. You should always try to identify the electrical noise sources and increase the distance to the PDF10x. -
