Optics
Welcome to Thorlabs; below you will find links to optical components and systems, a subset of our entire line of photonics products. All single element optical components can be found under the optical elements link with the exception of optical components that have polarization properties since they have a separate link. Multi-element systems like beam expanders and objective lenses as well as interferometers, fiber collimators, reference cells, modulators, and other optical devices can be found by choosing the optical systems link. Thorlabs also manufactures an extensive line of free-space and fiber optic isolators; stock items ship the same day that they are ordered while our custom orders benefit from our streamlined design and manufacturing process, which minimizes lead time.

Ultrasonic Level Transmitters and Switches
Ultrasonic Level Measurement features variable GAP technology for stable readings in the most challenging environments.The KSONIK is the only ultrasonic level transmitter that uses dynamic GAP technology in order to locate the correct echo. The KSONIK utilizes the minimum amount of GAP (Gain, Amplitude, and Power) at every possible distance within the measurement range. This simply means that we reduce the power to give you the most accurate reading with a beam angle of only 3 degrees, and then enough power to push through the most dusty environments.
