The 203 Butterfly Laser Diode Mount is an excellent choice for electrical connection and passive cooling of Butterfly laser modules. With optional fiber tray, cover, fan base, and removable connectors, the 203 offers a very flexible solution for butterfly laser applications.
Quick Laser Loading
The 203 Butterfly Laser Diode Mount makes Loading the laser quick with a zero insertion force socket… simply set the laser into the socket, screw the device to the mount for passive cooling, and close the lead clamp to make the electrical connection. The lead clamps are removable for butterfly lasers with GPO or SMA connectors on one side and for easy maintenance in production applications.
Looking For Active Cooling?
If you are looking for a butterfly mount that includes active TEC cooling, take a look at the 205 TEC Butterfly LaserMount.
Accessories
Beyond the mount itself, the 203 works with our optional fiber tray, device cover, and fan base:
The 200-TRAY fiber tray bolts directly to the top of the mount and makes fiber management simple.
The 200-C cover enhances the stability of the laser by minimizing the impact of ambient air currents.
The 200-FAN fan base significantly increases the thermal performance, from 2.8°C/W to 1°C/W (25°C set, 25°C ambient).
Easy Wiring
The underside of the mount houses a simple screw terminal wiring setup, with all wires color-coded, and the terminals clearly marked to make wiring the mount for your device as easy as possible.
DB-9 & DB-15 Interfaces
The laser driver and temperature controller connections are made through a DB-9 LDD and DB-15 TEC connector on the side of the mount, which allows for quick connections to any Arroyo Instruments controllers.
