Description
|
The Micro OWL 2 is a high accuracy, high resolution,
microprocessor controlled, optical power meter. The meter has a
75dB dynamic range making it ideal for both single-mode and multimode
fiber testing.
It has an attractive handheld case with a backlit, graphic,
liquid crystal display, and 18-key keypad for easy data entry. It is
offered with a 2.5mm universal fiber connector, with a 1.25mm universal cap
for LC, MU, and other 1.25mm SFF connectors. It will operate for
over 100 hours on a standard 9v battery and has built in auto shutdown.
The Micro OWL 2 includes OWL’s user-friendly Link Wizard that helps you
easily calculate the allowable loss for the fiber runs that you
will be measuring. The meter stores physical fiber information for up to
four link configurations which includes link name, date, fiber type,
fiber length, connectors, splices, temperature, and calculated or
entered reference power values for three wavelengths. In addition the
meter will store up to
1000 measured data points with labels.
The auto-wavelength switching feature of the Micro OWL 2 allows
for convenient dual-wavelength data storage, which helps eliminate human
error and cuts down testing time nearly in half. This convenient feature
is available when used with OWL WaveSource series fiber optic light
sources.
The stored information can be selectively viewed, edited (measured again),
printed, or deleted. The meter will print formatted reports of selected
stored data directly using the built in serial port, or all of the stored
data can be downloaded to a computer spreadsheet or our free OWL Reporter
software to produce formatted certification reports.
A charger port is also included for re-chargeable 9-volt
batteries. Optionally, a Visual Fault Locator can be installed in the place
of the battery charging port for visual fiber identification or
troubleshooting faults in the near-end of a fiber link.

Note:
Applications such as Telco and CATV only require the use of an optical power meter to measure optical power of their transmitters.
However, the majority of applications, such as optical loss measurements, will require the user to have a stabilized light source.
For these applications OWL has several test kit options using the Micro OWL 2, for multimode, singlemode, or both.
