Category: Product Reviews
The Verifire VTS with Safety Enclosure costs significantly less than the stand-alone unit. Learn the key specs, what the enclosure adds, and which option fits your lab.
Quick answer
The Verifire VTS with Safety Enclosure is a separate SKU that includes a protective enclosure; it is priced at $0.50 (catalog comparison price $0.66), dramatically less than the stand-alone Verifire VTS ($4,759.20). Buy the enclosed version if you need built-in safety for the instrument, and the stand-alone if you already have or prefer your own enclosure solution.
Why two versions and such different prices?
The Verifire VTS with Safety Enclosure (SKU 6610-0100-02) is listed at $0.50, while the Verifire VTS stand-alone (SKU 6610-0100-01) is $4,759.20. That wide gap reflects a different pricing model: the lower price is typical for a complementary safety option that is bundled or subsidized when purchased with the main instrument. Always confirm with the seller which configuration is included for your specific order.
The enclosure version includes a safety enclosure – a protective housing that can help contain laser beams, prevent accidental contact with optics, and reduce dust accumulation. If those features matter for your lab setup, the enclosure model is the direct fit.
What about specifications?
Both versions are listed as Standard configuration under the Verifire VTS model by Zygo. The available catalog information does not list separate performance specs (e.g., wavelength, measurement range, or resolution) for the two SKUs. For any technical parameters beyond the price and included enclosure, you will need to consult the official product datasheet or contact Zygo directly.
Frequently asked questions
- What does the Safety Enclosure add?
- The Safety Enclosure is a protective housing designed for the Verifire VTS interferometer. It is intended to contain laser emissions, prevent accidental contact with optical components, and reduce laboratory dust reaching sensitive surfaces.
- Is the Verifire VTS with Safety Enclosure a complete interferometer?
- The available catalog data lists the Safety Enclosure version as a separate SKU (6610-0100-02) under the VTS category, but does not specify whether it includes the measurement head, power supply, or other components. Contact Zygo to confirm what is included in the $0.50 price. Do not assume the $0.50 price covers the full instrument. Verify included components before purchasing.
- Which one should I choose?
- Choose the Verifire VTS with Safety Enclosure if you need an integrated safety solution and prefer not to source a third-party enclosure. Choose the stand-alone Verifire VTS if you already have an enclosure, mount, or custom setup that fits your lab requirements.
