Warranty
First Year Warranty
The Gentec-EO power and energy detectors carry a one-year warranty (from date of shipment) against
material and /or workmanship defects when used under normal operating conditions. The warranty does
not cover recalibration or damages related to misuse.
Gentec-EO will repair or replace at its option any wattmeter or joulemeter which proves to be defective
during the warranty period, except in the case of product misuse.
Any unauthorized alteration or repair of the product is also not covered by the warranty.
The manufacturer is not liable for consequential damages of any kind.
Customers must fill in and mail the warranty card in order to validate the warranty.
In the case of a malfunction, contact the local Gentec-EO distributor or nearest Gentec-EO office to obtain
a return authorization number. Return the material to the appropriate address below.

    Version 2.0 The only condition is that the detector head must not have been subject to unauthorized service or damaged by misuse. Misuse would include, but is not limited to, laser exposure outside Gentec-EO’s published specifications, physical damage due to improper handling, and exposure to hostile environments.

    Version 2.0 2 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 2.1 WITH GENTEC-EO MONITORS To operate the PH and PE Series photo detector, connect the detector head to the input socket on Gentec-eo monitors with the cable supplied by Gentec-EO before turning the monitor on. (See monitor’s instruction manual.) Adjust the reading to zero before measurements for best accuracy.
  • Page 12: Damage To The Optical Absorber Material

    Version 2.0 Set Diode Zero or Zero Offset or Offset 3 DAMAGE TO THE OPTICAL ABSORBER MATERIAL Damage to the optical absorber material is usually caused by exceeding the manufacturer's specified maximum incident in the average power density. Refer to the specifications pages for the PH Series power head specifications. Cleaning: Use Alcohol and a clean cotton cloth.

    Version 2.0 4.3 SATURATION The maximum power varies with wavelength, power density and from one diode to another. When making measurements near the saturation power, you must verify the saturation effect with a calibrated Filter. 4.3.1 Procedure with a known transmission value filter Make the measurement with and without the filter.
