Product information "LOR-220 OTDRs"

520-1650 nm; Pulse Width 1 ns; Measurement Range 1.25-160 km; Fiber Type SM, MM, POF; Connector Type FC, SC, ST – APC or PC

The LOR-220 series of fully portable stand-alone OTDRs is integrated in a Windows-based PC-platform with touchscreen interface. With the optical pulse width of only 1 ns, the LOR-220 series are the first truly portable high-resolution OTDRs specially designed for short-range multi mode (MM) or single mode (SM) fiber assemblies, found for example in airplanes, ships, automotive, defense, and similar applications.

The LOR-220 is based on Luciol’s novel patented scanning photon-counting technology. It is the highest-resolution instrument of this family and has industry-leading resolution and dead-zones (10 cm event dead-zone, 40 cm attenuation dead-zone). A large variety of wavelength options (520 to 1650 nm) as well as single- and dual-output versions are available, up to four different emitters can be integrated in a single module.

The OTDR model LOR-220 POF is specially designed for testing large-core optical fibers such as 1 mm PMMA (POF) or others, providing a universal tool to characterize insertion losses and fiber attenuation. The LOR-220 POF is available on a custom basis for most large-core optical fibers and it has several wavelengths options.

With the models LOR-220-U (single port) and LOR-220-UD (dual detector, dual port), Luciol Instruments offers a table-top packaging option that requires an external PC for control and operation. The LOR-220-UD OTDR can combine up to four wavelengths in the range of 500 to 1650 nm in one instrument. Both models are equipped with a standard USB port for convenient and easy connection to most Windows based PC and are ideal for test bench integration, laboratory environment OTDR testing and many more applications.

Luciol has added several options to the LOR-220 series of high-resolution OTDRs:

The Visual Fault Locator (VFL) option enables a blinking red laser, which is connected to the same connector as the OTDR itself. The user can switch from VFL to OTDR measurement directly in the software, without removing the connecting fiber. With access to the end of the fiber under test, the VFL can be used as a fiber identifier, to verify that the correct assembly is tested. This feature is especially useful for customers testing assemblies with multiple-fiber connectors with a probe. Please note that this VFL option is available only for the LOR-220 with 670 nm OTDR wavelength, the LOR-220 POF and the LOR-220-U/UD models.
The Optical Power Meter (OPM) option is calibrated at 850, 1310, 1550 and 1610 nm. It covers power ranges of -50 to +8 dBm at 850 nm and -55 to +3 dBm at 1310 to 1610 nm. Please note that the OPM option is not available for the LOR-220-U/UD models.
With the Fiber Microscope (FM, FSL) option, the user can verify the surface quality and cleanliness of all optical connectors before use. The surface is shown onto the LOR screen. It can be saved and printed for reference or reporting. Advanced software application is also available. Please note that the FM/FSL option is not available for the LOR-220 POF and LOR-220-U/UD models.

Models designed for aviation applications are available. Benefit from the LOR-220’s high resolution for troubleshooting, fiber monitoring and precise fault location. If the standard models should not meet your needs, contact AMS Technologies with your requirements and together let us find the customized solution to your fiber optic measurement challenge.

FTI-X Fibolocator Fiber Optic Fault Locators

1270-1650 nm; Test Signal Power 3 dB Peak; Horizontal Measurement Points 256; Horizontal Resolution 0.08, 2.5 m; Vertical Sensitivity -60,- 100 dB; Vertical Resolution 16 Bit; Typ. Dynamic Range 17, 27 dB Fibotec Fiberoptics’ FTI-X Fibolocators are innovative devices for spatially resolving and characterizing breaks and reflective faults in optical fibers. Correlation Optical Time Domain Reflectometry is the principle behind this device. Like standard OTDR, it is based on analyzing backscatter but uses cw laser sources. The requirements on test signals and detection complexity are low, leading to very affordable OEM modules. There are many different wavelength possibilities when using cw lasers, as the spectral width can also be customized. This enables the Fibolocator 80 for online monitoring of networks with ITU grid DFB diodes, as well as for interrogation of Bragg Grating fiber sensors. The Fibolocator 2500 is specifically designed to determine fiber length with very high resolution in QA and production. Resolution is not limited by the measurement span and it is also possible to monitor (zoom in to) certain parts of the fiber because of the correlation principle. In noisy fibers, advantages compared with pulse OTDR can be observed.
