Description

FF-8607 Automatic polarizing extinction ratio tester is a professional equipment for polarizing extinction ratio (PER) detection of polarizing device, polarization degree detection of light source, polarizing fiber extinction ratio detection and other polarizing device detection. It is a new generation of precision optical detection instrument developed by Jiahui Company combined with many years of optical device detection experience. It can be used to measure the extinction ratio of polarizing fiber, the extinction ratio of polarizing device, the extinction ratio of polarizing connector, the polarization degree of light source and the Angle between the polarization axis. The upper computer software is powerful and easy to operate. FF-8607 adds an automatic bias function on the basis of the previous, so that customers can use it faster and more convenient.

We integrated the FF-8607 into our optical component manufacturing line specifically for Polarization Extinction Ratio (PER) and optic axis angle verification on polarization-maintaining (PM) fiber couplers. The standout enhancement in this model is the automatic bias function, which eliminates manual polarization alignment and allows our technicians to execute sweeps in seconds. Having integrated Insertion Loss (IL) measurement alongside PER and polarization degree testing in a single bench-top instrument simplifies our test station footprint. Furthermore, the fast deflection speed and large dynamic range ensure precise measurements even across high-extinction devices without signal saturation. It is a top-tier instrument for volume production QA.

Evaluating semi-finished PM fibers and PM patch cord connectors usually presents mechanical coupling challenges, but the FF-8607 handles this seamlessly through its interchangeable interface and bare fiber jig support. In our optical assembly facility, being able to directly clamp bare polarization-maintaining fibers without pre-terminating them has saved dozens of engineering hours per batch. The instrument maintains high stability and high accuracy across multi-hour testing shifts. Coupled with the powerful upper computer software, tracking extinction ratio statistics across large production runs is straightforward and highly reliable.

For customized optical sensing and light source polarization monitoring, we required a PER tester that could be controlled programmatically within our automated LabVIEW environment. The FF-8607's RS232 interface and full support for secondary development made system integration effortless. The instrument rapidly calculates the extinction ratio of PM connectors and light source polarization degrees with high accuracy. The automatic control deflection function operates smoothly, keeping sweep times under tight windows during automated sweeps. At a reference price of $5,300 USD, its combination of hardware automation and software flexibility delivers exceptional technical value for optics R&D labs.
