Description4.

Laboratory power supply MBL1500B –high stability laser diode (LD) controller. Contains the LD

power supply channel and temperature controller (TEC).

MBL1500 can be controlled from the front panel using buttons and/or touchscreen or remotely

via USB.

The LD power supply channel provides current up to 1.5A with noises no more than 10-15μA.

The TEC channel provides a temperature change from +12 to +40°C with stability 0,01°C. TEC

contains integrated self-adjusted PID controller, providing optimal temperature regulation.

Protections11.

The power supply includes various protections that prevent damage to the LD.

External interlock

External interlock function provides multiply protections at the same time:

Prevents inadvertent use;

Allows to connect an external emergency switch;

Allows to connect an external auto protect device (e.g. over-temperature switches).

The laser can only be turned on with shorted Interlock.

Soft-start

The soft-start function protects against unwanted overshoot of the LD in the power up process.

LD max current limiting

LD max current limit (LD max current) is described in paragraph 15.7. You cannot set the

operating current above LD max current.

Laser diode temperature protection window

This function protects the LD from unwanted temperature in combination with a thermal

controller. If you set the temperature window limits close to the set temperature, the laser can be

turned off permanently (the measured temperature will be outside the LD temperature window).

Maiman Electronics MBL1500B

LD temperature protection window can be set in Settings submenu (paragraph 13.7) using parameters

TEC max temperature and TEC min temperature.

Over-temperature protection

The MBL1500 has automatic overheating protection. If the set TEC max temperature is

exceeded, the LD power supply will be automatically turned off. After the temperature returns to

normal, the LD power supply can be switched on again.

State after switching on

After turning on the MBL1500 with the Standby button the LD power supply and TEC will always

be turned off.

Memorization of parameters

In case of an interruption/unplanned shutdown, the MBL1500 remembers the settings that were

set at the time of the last On/Off Laser or TEC command.

How to get started14.

When you turn on the MBL1500 without the connected LD, the operation and information on

the screen will be incorrect!

1. Unpack the MBL1500;

2. Connect the LD (paragraph 13. LD connection);

3. Connect the power cord. Plug the power cord into the outlet;

4. Check the Interlock connection. The Interlock status bar should not be highlighted in red

(paragraph 15.1 The Main screen);

5. Press the power button on the back panel;

6. Press the Standby button. A splash screen will appear. The Main screen loads. The function

buttons should be white. Buttons Laser and TEC should be red;

7. Set the required parameters and settings (paragraph 15. Screen description);

Maiman Electronics MBL1500B

8. To turn on, press the Laser and TEC buttons. The buttons will light up in green. Status bars

Current LD and TEC will light up in green. If you turn on LD without TEC, the TEC button will flash. If you

failed to turn on the Laser and TEC, check the status bars Error and Interlock. They should not be

highlighted in red (paragraph 15.1 The Main screen);

9. To turn off, press the Laser and TEC buttons again. The buttons will light up in red. Press the

Standby button. Turn off the power by button on the back panel.

Screen description15.

Before switching on the TEC and Laser, set the parameters and settings for the MBL1500 in

accordance with the specification of the laser diode. The next section describes setting parameters

and settings in detail.
