Hi folks,

I picked up an OIP Model 165 gas laser, part no. 763-065 from the
physics lab trash today. Try as I might, I couldn't find the PSU to go
with it. It has a (custom?) three-pin inline power connector with a
metal clip on one side.

There's no info on OIP's website (www.oip.be), and they appear to be
more specialised in defense applications, so manuals would be
difficult to obtain, I'd imagine. A web search yielded absolutely
nothing. I'm not ruling it out might be relabeled tho (haven't opened
it up yet).

Can anyone give me any infos on this gadget, i.e. type, emitted power,
PSU outputs?

Any obvious defects I should look for to rule out it's completely
busted? (It looks a bit knocked about).

Thanks for any info,

Roland, try posting on alt.lasers and include any data from the rating plate
or the CDRH label, i.e. wavelength and power (although I'm guessing you
haven't located that label from your request for information on power) and
mention the dimensions and shape of the laser head as it will give some clue
as to what it is.
