KI 9000 UM-10 5INTRODUCTION AND APPLICATIONSThe KI 9000A Series Optical Power Meter and Optical Light Sourceoffer both ease of use and superb measurement confidence. They arevery convenient to use, and have reduced cost of ownership.This equipment can be effectively used by installers, technicians andengineers to test all types of fiber optic systems in various applicationsincluding SMF, MMF, POF, PCS and ribbon fiber: Tx / Rx absolute power levels in dBm Optical loss in dB Continuity testing with the versatile test tone featuresThe interchangeable optical connectors are drop and dust protectedby a snap on cover. A wide variety of connector styles are available.The instruments feature a tough polycarbonate housing with shockabsorbent sides and corners, which has passed extensive droptesting.Calibration can be performed by any suitably equipped laboratory. Therecommended re-calibration cycle is 3 years.Power Meter featuresThe standard power meters work with fiber core diameter up to 200micron, with both PC and APC polish connectors.Large area detector power meters work with fibers with up to 3 mmactive area including MPO/ MTP connectors with up to 72 fibers.Detector options include Germanium (Ge), Indium Gallium Arsenide(InGaAs), Silicon (Si), high power, large area and wavelengthselective.Power meter calibration options are available from 470 nm to 1625 nmwith specified accuracy at power levels from +24 to - 60 dBm.The display shows dBm, dB and linear units, and display hold is usefulfor data recording.Superior measurement confidence is achieved with a unique TotalUncertainty Specification, which covers the full temperature,measurement and connector range. A calibration certificate issupplied.The sensitive optical tone detector displays the actual measured tonefrequency in Hz. If a standard tone is detected, the buzzer sounds,which is useful for fiber identification and continuity testing. MultiFiberID (new to A series) can also separately identify any of 12 test tonesfrom a compatible source, greatly speeding up continuity / polaritytesting.Power stability testing is easily using the max/min recording function.TamperLock mode (new to A series) is a useful way to lock theinstrument features to enforce pre-set & error free operation.TamperLock operation is auditable and can be defeated on-site ifneeded.Slow Mode (new to A series) can be used to increase signal averagingfor noisy signals.
