Laserglow Combined 589 473 nm unit, need info.

[Laser57]

Got a Laserglow chassis with two combined lasers, blue and yellow. Hoping someone can tell me if they have seen this before, I am most interested in the 589 laser, but the unit came without the power supply/drivers. I opened the 589 laser in a fairly low dust environment to see what the pump diode is, I'm not familiar with this diode and don't know the polarity for the two tabs, anyone? Photo's attached.

I wanted to try here first before going to Laserglow, but as a hobbyist, I've not had good luck getting information from companies regarding older gear.

Edit: I've reloaded the photo's twice after turning three of them right side up, but not working. They show the proper orientation on my viewer.

Is the glass bodied reverse protection diode wired across the LD? Do the leads of the glass bodied diode fold towards the pump diode and connect? I can't see under the purple wire.

If yes, the striped end of the protection diode corresponds to the positive lead of the pump diode.

That is as much as I can tell from the picture.

Looks like CNI laser Source to me.

Great, that's something I should have understood as it would be reverse polarity across the input of the pump diode DC connection, of course!

Laserpower, just saw your post, I will see if CNI can help, if no one else has more info.

Chris,

Here are some power supplies that will work for your lasers..

You are selling?

Those should be the right PSUs.. Only thing you would have to watch is Imax, the maximum current. It might be possible to turn the knob a bit too much. But that means finding the I-limit setting inside and adjusting it.

You'll need to heat the doubling/mixing crystal, and I'd guess to say 40'C give or take...
