Laser Beam Dumps
Laser Beam Dumps
PD Series laser beam dumps feature a patent-pending structure designed to absorb incident light and passively dissipate heat through natural convection. Laser beam dumps are used to capture unwanted and stray beams or contain a beam within a portion of an instrument.
- Absorbs incident laser beams
- Patent pending design minimizes backskatter
- Up to 80 W maximum power
- Multiple imperial and metric mounting options built-in See All Features

Notes:
General Notes:
- To help identify the appropriate beam dump, utilize the Ophir Power Density Calculator to determine your specific power density or energy density requirements.
- Caution: Beam dumps may become hot to the touch when operated near their maximum power rating.
- At 355 nm, 500 kHz, 10 ns
At 633 nm
Features
Enhanced Laser Safety with Backscatter Control
The PD Series Beam Dumps feature an innovative patent-pending structure designed to absorb incident light and passively dissipate heat through natural convection. The interior incorporates a Silicon Carbide scattering surface, effectively able to suppress and reduce backscatter of incident CW and Pulsed beams. As a result, laser safety for personnel and equipment is greatly enhanced.
Versatile Mounting Options
These beam dumps are designed to be post-mountable and feature an 8-32 and M4 threaded holes on opposing sides. This configuration allows for direct mounting onto a variety of our posts and pedestals. The
