KI 9000 UM-14
INTRODUCTION AND APPLICATIONS
The KI 9000A Series Optical Power Meter and Optical Light Source
offerboth ease of useandsuperbmeasurement confidence.They are
very convenient to use and, have reduced cost of ownership.
Calibrations are ISO 17025 traceable.
This equipment can be effectively used by installers, technicians and
engineerstotestalltypesoffiberopticsystemsinvariousapplications
including SMF, MMF, POF, PCS and ribbon fiber:
•Tx / Rx absolute power levels in dBm
•Optical loss in dB
•Continuity testing with the versatile test tone features
The interchangeable optical connectors are drop and dust protected
by a snap on cover. A wide variety of connector styles are available.
The instruments feature a tough polycarbonate housing with shock
absorbent sides and corners, which has passed extensive drop
testing.

recommended re-calibration cycle is 3 years.
Power Meter features
The standard power meters work with fiber core diameter up to 200
microns, with both PC and APC polish connectors.
Large area detector power meters work with fibers with up to 3 mm
active area including MPO/ MTP connectors with up to 72 fibers.
Detector options include Germanium (Ge), Indium Gallium Arsenide
(InGaAs), Silicon (Si), high power, large area and wavelength
selective.
Powermetercalibrationoptionsareavailablefrom470nm to 1625nm
with specified accuracy at power levels from +24 to - 60 dBm.

Superior measurement confidence is achieved with a unique Total
Uncertainty Specification, which covers the full temperature,
measurement and connector range. An ILAC/NATA traceable
calibration certificate is supplied.
The sensitive optical tone detector displays the actualmeasured tone
frequency in Hz. If a standard tone is detected, the buzzer sounds,
which is useful for fiber identification and continuity testing. MultiFiber
ID (new to A series) can also separately identify any of 12 test tones
from a compatible source, greatly speeding up continuity / polarity
testing.
Power stability testing is easily using the max/min recording function.
TamperLock mode (new to A series) is a useful way to lock the
instrument features to enforce pre-set & error free operation.
TamperLock operation is auditable and can be defeated on-site if
needed.
