Calibration
FIS Calibration and Verification services ensure your fiber optic test equipment remains accurate.
It is recommended practice to keep fiber optic test equipment calibrated in measurement to ensure fast troubleshooting when locating network failures or when providing optical attenuation or optical cable length certification results. These records are required to close out a project and receive final payment.
American Standards Lab, a division of Fiber Instrument Sales Inc. can provide verification and/or calibration documents on several fiber optic testers such as OTDRs, Power Meters, and Optical Loss Test Sets manufactured by Fiber Instrument Sales, AFL, EXFO, Anritsu, Viavi, Fluke, Tempo, Greenlee and Trend Networks to ensure network owners of accurate measurements. All calibration and verification equipment is inspected and calibrated to NIST traceable standards, to ensure equipment is in conformance with the manufacturer’s specifications. NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) defines a measurement so that both the item being measured (your equipment) and referenced measurement is a match.
Fusion Splicer maintenance can avoid unnecessary downtime during projects resulting in lost revenue. Underlying issues with fiber optic fusion splicers can be contamination or damaged V-Grooves, dirty or soiled camera lenses, dusty camera boards, damaged or misaligned electrodes, and simply debris inside the splicer case causing motor issues with alignment and cameras. The end result is poor fusion splices and potentially delayed projects with issues identified later during testing or the certification phase. Therefore, fusion splicer deep cleaning and tune-up service is recommended annually to clean, replace electrodes and inspect the overall operation of fiber optic fusion splicers manufactured by Fiber Instrument Sales(FIS), AFL, Sumitomo, Fitel, OFS, FiberFox, Greenlee, Ilsentech/UCL and Swift.
