Can I use any 80W power supply with any 80W laser tube?

Post by TheKackler »

My DY10 power supply for RECI tubes has just failed. Can I replace this power supply with any 80W power supply. I notice the specs are different between 80W supplies.

Thanks!

Yes you can. Most laser power supply are so standard and our power supply works great for RECI tube.
The most important setting is how much current to fit. For Rec 80W tube, they recommend 26mA and never go over 28mA for full power.
The term of 8000~10,000hrs is subject to the condition that 26mA or less current applied or 80% power in use.

Regards,
Marco
