In our standard quality assurance procedure, each fiber optic assembly is labeled with a serial nr,
and some standard test are being carried out with a spectrometer and AvaLight-CAL Line source and
registered:
1.
Spectral attenuation at 253 nm for UV/VIS fibers, spectral attenuation at 763 nm for VIS/NIR
fibers.
2.
Symmetries of the connector for both sides; the maximal peak value is allowed to move as many
nm as the registered resolution of the fiber / spectrometer.
3.
Optical inspection of scratches on the surface.
4.
A Deep-UV burn-in of 8 hours to pre-solarize the -SR assemblies, the attenuation at 215nm is
registered.
There is always a label attached to the fiber optic Dip probe that will tell you the serial nr, so the
QA data can be retraced.
