OTDR handheld Optical Time Domain Reflectometry is a new generation of intelligent optical-fibre communication instrument. It is able to display the loss distribution curves of optical fibres and optical cables, measure the attenuation factors of optical fibres and optical cables, loss between points and at joints. It is also able to measure the length of optical fibres and optical cables, the distance between two points, identify the connecting, fault, and disconnecting locations of optical fibres and optical cables. It is widely used in the construction, maintenance, measurement, emergency repair of optical-fibre communication system works; also used in the development, manufacturing and measurement of optical fibres and optical cables.

Main functions

• Measure length of optical fibre.

• Measure the distance between any two points in the curves of optical fibre.
• Measure and display the loss between any two points in the curves(dB).
• Measure and display the connecting loss at the joints of the curves (this function is not available in Optical-fibre Fault Finder).
• Measure the value of reflection loss(this function is not available in Optical-fibre Fault Finder).
• Measure the distance between two event points (this function is not available in Optical-fibre Fault Finder).
• Measure the loss between two event points (this function is not available in Optical-fibre Fault Finder).
• Measure the average loss between two event points (this function is not available in Optical-fibre Fault Finder).
• Measure waveform storage.
• Indicate the power volume of intelligent batteries.
• Work as a real-time measurement instrument, this increases the convenience on observing real-time connecting effects of optical fibres.

Maintenance
Precautions
Optical output product is to be kept clean, especially the optical output terminal is to be cleaned regularly with absolute ethyl alcohol.
Cover the dust-proof cap after you have finished using the instrument, and keep clean the dust-proof cap.
Please regularly check the flange connector at the output end. If any crack or rupture is found in the ceramic core of the flange, please replace the flange immediately.
Both optical output connector and internal optical output jumper are consumables, when connecting in the optical fibre to be tested, please don’t push it with too strong force, but push it in gently at horizontal direction, so as to prevent the optical output connector and internal optical output jumper being damaged.
The instrument (including its battery) is to be stored at room temperature, and to be kept in dry places so as to keep the instrument in best performance.
If you are not going to use the instrument for a long time, please charge the battery then discharge it at fixed interval of 3 months. Otherwise, excessive self discharge may damage the battery.
