The Laser Precision RK5710 is a single-channel power meter engineered for precise measurement of laser power across UV to far-IR wavelengths. It delivers both continuous wave and average power measurements with 0.5% accuracy, supporting pyroelectric, silicon, and thermopile probes to handle power levels from picowatts to kilowatts. An integrated lock-in amplifier provides synchronous detection with exceptional signal-to-noise ratio and background rejection for chopped optical signals.
