OPTICAL CONNECTOR
KI7000 UM-5
-
11 -
To access the optical connectors, grasp a top corner(s) of the
instrument, and pull off the cover(s).
Each optical port is mounted on a swivel, which allows the connector
to be angled outwards for accessibility, and then pushed back and
covered with the snap cover to provide dirt and drop protection.
Different styles of standard and optional connector adaptors can be
easily fitted by the user.
The supplied standard connector adaptors have ceramic sleeves to
avoid connector metal dust contamination.
CAUTION! Do not use damaged or incompatible connector adaptors.
When not in use, keep the test ports and connectors covered. To
minimize connectors wear, instrument can be stored without
removing the test leads. Never touch connector tips with your fingers,
since body oils and dirt can impair its performance.
WARNING! Remove batteries before using a microscope to inspect
instrument connectors.
Power Meter:
This port can be used with both PC and APC connector styles.
Bare fiber adaptors must achieve fiber eccentricity of ± 100 microns,
and an end tolerance of ± 300 microns relative to the ferrule end.
Preferred bare fiber adaptors consist of a connector with fiber
retention device or other end stop.
For regular work with bare fibers, it is preferable to use an alternative
arrangement such as a multimode pigtail with a v-groove or
mechanical splice.
CAUTION! Do not scratch the detector lens with glass fiber end
when using bare fiber adaptors, or the instrument will be permanently
damaged
Light Source:
A Light Source is either PC or APC connector-specific. This is
determined when ordering the instrument, and can only be changed
at the factory.
CAUTION! The use of bare fiber adaptors with the source is not
recommended as permanent instrument damage will occur, and very
unstable measurements are likely.
