Norland fiber optic visualizer helium neon laser
just in from a local aerospace company sale is this Norland Fiber Optic Visualizer model 25000, for testing fiber optic networks, it has the neon laser and power supply and 2 fiber optic lines and 2 heads all comes in a plastic case, we powered it on and can see the laser as shown. Norland sells this instrument for $1100 online, location office 1
Below is some online info we found about this item, contact Norland will all ur questions before making a purchase
The Norland Fiber Visualizer is a unique instrument which simplifies installation and testing of fiber optic networks. This compact unit uses a 0.5 mW helium neon laser, with an ultra-precision optical adapter, to focus high intensity visible light into the core of a fiber optic connector. As the light travels down the fiber, a visible red glow is emitted anywhere discontinuity occurs. The Visualizer imitates on the visible level, what normally occurs in the invisible infrared spectrum,thereby allowing the end user to actually see any problems in the system.
The Visualizer is unique because it uses a safe, low powered laser to generate high optical output. The ultraprecision optical adapter focuses up to 90% of the laser beam into the fiber core and allows the light to be seen at a break more than a kilometer down the fiber. Even though the Visualizer uses a visible laser source, the power output is limited to less than 1.0 milliwatts. This categorizes it as a Class II laser which means it is safe for normal operation with the stipulation that you do not stare into the beam.
