Preform Analyzer

P104 - Photon Kinetics (PK)

The P104 Preform Analyzer provides fast and repeatable measurement of the critical characteristics of optical fiber preform index profiles. Like the 2600 Preform Analyzer, measurements are automatic, reliable, and require a minimum of operator skill. However, the P104 also possesses unique capabilities that are highly beneficial for some specific preform types and processes. The P104's dynamic aperture option greatly improves the characterization of many finely structured preforms, and its patented silica measurement cell minimizes the thermal effects that plague some preform characterizations.
