SUMMARY:AILU Member Webinar - Understanding and Managing Damage Threshold
DESCRIPTION:  \n  \n  \n2 September 2026\n10:00 AM IDT (8:00 AM BST ) 👉 Register for the 10:00 session \n6:00 PM IDT (4:00 PM BST) 👉 Register for the 6:00 PM session \n  \nA very commonly asked question is\, in generalised terms\, “I was within spec\, so why did my sensor get damaged?” Laser measurement often has us deliberately putting a measuring instrument in harm’s way. In this webinar\, you’ll learn about the various effects a laser beam can have on an instrument in its path\, and how to make sure that you’ve taken ALL relevant beam details into account so that your laser sensor can continue to serve you well for many years. \nIf you’ve ever wondered why a sensor can be damaged even when operating within its published specifications\, join MKS Ophir’s upcoming webinar: \n\nWhat damage threshold really means\nHow power density and energy density affect sensor risk\nWhy beam size and operating conditions matter\nPractical ways to avoid costly sensor damage
