The HP 8152A Optical Average Power Meter and its optical heads provide the accuracy and versatility for absolute and relative power measurements in a fiber optic test environment. Applications range from output power measurement of active optical components, or loss/attenuation measurement of passive optical components, to ratio measurement of power splitters. Individually calibrated optical heads ensure highly precise measurement results over the entire wavelength range from 450 to 1700nm. After entering the operating wavelength, the appropriate sensitivity correction factor will automatically be taken into account to ensure the correct measurement value is displayed. The combination of 2 independent optical inputs, the capability to perform ratio measurements, plus an HP 81000AS/ BS Optical Power Splitter provides a fast, easy solution to determine the power ratio of an optical splitter or eliminating the instabilities of an optical source. All functions can be set manually via front panel controls, or programmed via HP-IB for complete remote control. Specifications. Wavelength Range: 450 to 1700nm (sensor dependent). Measurement Range: +10 to -100 dBm (sensor dependent). Resolution: 0.01 dB, 10pW (sensor dependent).
