The Vlite-1000 Dual Pulse PIV Laser is a low-repetition-rate, ultra-high-energy dual-pulse green laser designed for large-area PIV measurements and tomographic PIV applications. It delivers extremely high pulse energy, making it ideal for large-scale fluid dynamics research requiring powerful and stable laser output.
In contrast, the Vlite Dual Pulse PIV Laser series also operates at low repetition rates (up to 15Hz) but offers a wider range of pulse energies (135mJ to 500mJ), providing greater flexibility for different experimental setups. This series emphasizes thermal stability, uniform beam quality, and safety features, making it well-suited for low-frequency PIV applications that require reliable performance and precise synchronization.
Both Dual Pulse PIV Laser models serve distinct research needs: the Vlite-1000 is optimized for ultra-high-energy, low-frequency complex imaging, while the Vlite series supports flexible low-frequency diagnostics with mid-range energy and enhanced operational stability.
