OPERATIONAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE PHOTODETECTORS SIR5-FC, SV2-FC, AND SUV7-FC • Inject the radiation to be analyzed into a 50 μm fiber. Keep the energy and power of the radiation below the damage threshold of the fiber tip/volume. • Attenuate the peak power of the optical pulse exiting the fiber to less than 20 mW. NOTE: If the photodetector input is greater than 20 mW, the detector may be damaged, and the warranty will not apply.
