Beam delivery optical cable (BDO)

The optical power from the fiber laser supply is delivered through the fiber optics in the Beam delivery optical cable.

Because of the small face area and the high power levels, cleanliness of the input and output optical surfaces is critical

to component lifetime and proper operation. Each surface should be inspected, with the magnifier that was supplied

with the system, whenever they are removed from their receptacles. To prevent contamination and chipping, the optical

surfaces should not be touched.

Note: If cleaning is necessary, see the Cleaning Procedure on page 4-4.

Diameter = 2 x radius = 200 mm (8 in)

Caution:

the minimum bend radius of the Beam delivery

optical cable is 100 mm (4 in). the fiber can be

damaged if the radius is any smaller.
