The new fp50-shift LDA system integrates the laser source, frequency shifting
and optics in a single compact probe. There are no optical fibers to transport
the beams from the Laser to the probe optics, so almost all of the Laser energy
is transmitted to the measurement volume.
When comparing with common fiber-based LDA systems, this approach
has the advantage of a high available illumination power offered at a very
competitive price.
The fp50-shift is designed with robustness and stability in mind. All optical
elements, such as Bragg cells and prisms, are factory-aligned and fixed, with
no need for in-use readjustment.
In common with all LDA systems from ILA, the fp50-shift is operated via the
proven and user-friendly flowPOINT software interface.
