FIBER & PROBE
UV-VIS XSR Solarization-resistant fiber (180-800nm)
Extreme Solarization Resistant Optical Fibers
Our premium-grade optical fiber assemblies are durable, high-quality patch cords that deliver uniform results with minimal signal variance. Premium-grade patch cords act as both illumination and read fibers and connect easily to Ocean Insight spectrometers, light sources and sampling accessories.
UV radiation <300 nm degrades signal transmission in standard silica fibers, resulting in solarization (increased light absorption in the UV that can invalidate measurements). Solarization-resistant fiber assemblies use polyimide or aluminum buffers that mitigate the effects of UV degradation.
Features
- Resistance to UV effects – polyimide or aluminum buffers mitigate UV transmission degradation
- Jacketing options – stainless steel BX
- Variety – assemblies available in different core diameters and lengths; custom options also available
- Convenient handling – precision SMA 905 connectors with extra-long knurled ferrules for easy manipulation
- Robust – great for field and industrial use, or other rough handling environments
