The 1936-C/R and 2936-C/R optical power and energy meters are one of the most sophisticated optical meters available in the market. With patented methods for measuring optical signal characteristics the hugely successful 19xx-C/R power meter series has set a new level of standards in optical power and energy measurements.
These new instruments are born by combining the superb femtowatt level sensitivity reached by the legacy 1931-C/2931-C series and the extreme versatility of 1935-C/2935-C series, resulting in a truly revolutionizing breed. No matter what the applications are and how demanding the measurements are, you only need one of these and Newport detectors. 918D and 818 semiconductor-based low power, 818P Series thermopile, and 818E Series pyroelectric detectors that have a DB15 connector or adapter are fully compatible with the instruments. The detectors are hotswappable, so there is no need to cycle power when a different sensor has to be used.
