25mW Infrared Line Laser Light

Wiring Connections

• Power Connection:
  • Red Wire: Connect to the positive terminal of the power supply (3-5V DC).
  • Black Wire: Connect to the ground (GND) of the power supply.
• Additional Connections: No additional wiring is typically required, as the laser module is a standalone unit.

Power

• Operating Voltage: 3-5V DC, which allows for compatibility with a variety of power sources, including batteries or regulated DC power supplies.
• Power Consumption: Approximately 25mW, ensuring low power usage while still providing a powerful laser output.
• Connection Method: Typically, the laser module is connected directly to the power supply through its integrated wires.

Input and Output

• Input:
  • Power Supply: 3-5V DC power is required to operate the laser module.
• Output:
  • Infrared Laser Beam: The module outputs a 25mW infrared laser in a line pattern, which is ideal for alignment or measurement applications where a straight line is needed.

Physical Characteristics

• Size: The module is compact, with a diameter of about 12mm and a length of around 45mm, making it easy to integrate into various setups.
• Weight: Light in weight due to the aluminum alloy construction, typically weighing around 20-30 grams.
• Material: The housing is made of aluminum alloy, which provides strength and efficient heat dissipation.
• Color: The laser module casing is usually black or silver, with a matte or polished finish.
• Mounting: Can be mounted using standard clamps or holders that fit its diameter, making it versatile for different setups.

Technical Specifications

• Laser Diode: Operates at 808nm wavelength, providing a high-quality infrared output.
• Beam Divergence: The line width and spread can be adjusted based on the distance and focus settings.
• Lens: The line-generating lens spreads the laser into a straight line pattern, crucial for alignment tasks.
• Operating Temperature Range: Designed to work in environments ranging from -10°C to 40°C.
• Cooling Method: Passive cooling through the aluminum alloy housing, ensuring stable operation over time.

Additional Features

• Safety Considerations: As an infrared laser, the beam is invisible to the naked eye, making it essential to use appropriate safety measures, such as IR-sensitive goggles, to prevent accidental exposure.
• Applications: Suitable for a wide range of applications including industrial alignment, machine vision, positioning, and marking.
• Adjustability: The focus and line width can be adjusted manually to suit specific requirements, making it a flexible tool for precision tasks.
• Durability: The robust aluminum housing protects the internal components and ensures the laser’s longevity even in demanding environments.

How to Use

• Step 1: Connect the Power Supply.
  • Connect the red wire to the positive terminal of a 3-5V DC power supply.
  • Connect the black wire to the ground terminal.
• Step 2: Mount the Laser Module.
  • Use an appropriate holder or clamp to secure the laser module in place, ensuring that the line projection is correctly aligned with your target surface.
• Step 3: Adjust the Focus.
  • Manually rotate the focus ring on the laser module to adjust the sharpness and clarity of the line, depending on the distance from the target.
• Step 4: Operate the Laser.
  • Once connected and focused, turn on the power supply to activate the laser. The line will project onto the target surface, and you can fine-tune the alignment as needed.
• Step 5: Safety Precautions.
  • Always wear appropriate IR safety goggles to protect your eyes from the invisible infrared beam.
  • Ensure that the laser is pointed away from reflective surfaces to avoid unintended reflections that could cause harm.
• Step 6: Turn Off When Not in Use.
  • Disconnect the power supply or use a switch to turn off the laser when it’s not needed to prevent unnecessary wear and ensure safety.

The 25mW Infrared Line Laser Light is a powerful and versatile tool, perfect for precision alignment tasks in various industrial and technical applications. Its compact size, adjustable focus, and durable construction make it a reliable choice for professionals who need accuracy and efficiency in their work.
