SP FCBar info



Dear All,

I am trying to resurrect a Spectra J80 twin FCBar laser system, with both
diode bars shot beyond salvation.
2 things: I had to polish off the (burned to a crisp) AR coatings on the FC
connectors - if I cannot get them recoated, will there potentially be enough
reflection to blow the diodes?
Secondly, the replacement ProLite bars I have do not come with thermistors -
I tried to dig out the thermistors (thermocouples?) on the existing
heatsinks, but they are too well glued :) At least I got the leads out...
Does anyone know what kind of thermistor or thermocouple SP use here?

Last but not least, does anyone have any FCBar modules for sale?

Thanks, Ilya
