Laser Safety Shutter

   SH Series

• 12.5mm aperture
• Compact size
• High reliability, long life
• Returns to off position with a power failure
• Simple drive circuit for TTL input

The SH-10 shutter consists of a blade mounted on a rotary solenoid with a limited rotation angle. When the shutter is powered, the blade moves to the ON position and clears the path for the laser beam. When the power is turned off, the return spring of the shutter moves the blade to the OFF position and blocks the laser beam. The standard blade material is 0.25mm thick anodised aluminium. To meet laser specifications, other materials and thickness are available.
