Spectra physics argon-ion laser head 163-C12
Up for sale is a used Spectra Physics laser model 163-C12 488nm, manufactured 5/05, laser head/power supply connector cable, original quality summary report and user's manual. This unit is used and was in great working condition when system was dismantled. Not sure how many hours are on unit as site glass is little off but pictures show hour counter. Remote interface and power supply not included.

Original Quality Summary Report
***All information below provided by Newport website***
The Spectra-Physics 163 series air-cooled ion lasers comprise three versions providing linearly polarized, TEM00 output. All 163 lasers have a power factor corrected (PFC) version available.
Control for the Model 163A is available through the power supply or through a remote interface.
Model 163C is available with a CDRH-approved configuration. Control through the power supply and through a remote control is available. Control for the Model 163D is available through the power supply, a remote interface, a remote control, or a RS-232 connection.

(1) Specifications subject to change without notice.
(2) All measurements made in light control mode after a 30-minute warm-up, unless otherwise stated.
(3) Stability is measured over any 2-hour period after a 5-minute warm-up.
(4) Local control is available when the Model 361C Remote Control is attached to the REMOTE INTERFACE connector on the the power supply. Remote operation is also possible when your own equipment is attached to this connector (Amp No.206150-1).
(5) Interfaces that are compatible with other manufacturer s product are available upon request.
The Advantage 163C air-cooled ion laser system delivers high power in a compact package design. The small footprint and electrical interface make the 163C compatible with other Spectra-Physics air-cooled lasers. The plasma tube is based on Spectra-Physics proven Metal/BeO tube technology and patented Wavelength Selective Mirrors, * which ensures this laser will provide higher power while maintaining exceptional lifetime. The smart power supply automatically senses the line voltage and compensates for all variations between 90 265 Vac.
