Small volume optical power meter OEM

Compact optical power meters like the Artifex OPM150 and Semight PM420X are ideal for OEM integration, offering wide wavelength coverage, USB/PC control, and versatile power measurement ranges.Key Options1. Artifex OPM150 The OPM150 is a pocket-sized, low-cost optical power meter designed for lab, production, and OEM applications. It supports USB-powered PC control, eliminating the need for a built-in display, which reduces size and cost. The system allows interchangeable detector heads covering 250–2490 nm, automatically recognizing each head and uploading calibration data. Power measurement ranges span from nanowatts to kilowatts, with ±5% calibration accuracy for detector heads and ±1% for the base module. Accessories like calibrated attenuation filters extend measurement capabilities, making it highly adaptable for OEM integration and automated testing setups (Artifex Engineering) . 2. Semight PM420X The PM420X is a small-volume, high-precision optical power meter widely used in optical transceiver module development and production. It supports average optical power measurement and integrates into high-speed communication testing environments, including 5G, cloud computing, and big data applications. Its compact design allows embedding into automated test systems, supporting laser burn-in, CoC testing, and wafer-level optical measurements. Semight provides complete solutions for OEMs, including optical switches, attenuators, and high-precision source measure units for integrated testing (Semight Instruments) . 3. VIAVI Solutions and SIMTRUM VIAVI offers pocket-sized and lab-grade optical power meters suitable for single-mode and multimode fiber networks, with USB connectivity for PC or smart device control. SIMTRUM provides photoelectric, thermoelectric, handheld, and USB multi-channel meters covering 0.19–25 µm and power ranges from pW to kW, suitable for OEM and lab applications (VIAVI Solutions, SIMTRUM Photonics) .Considerations for OEM IntegrationSize and Form Factor: Compact meters like OPM150 and PM420X are ideal for embedding into devices or automated test setups.Wavelength Range: Choose meters with interchangeable heads or wide spectral coverage to match your application (UV to near-IR).Power Range: Ensure the meter can measure the expected optical power, from nanowatts for sensitive lasers to kilowatts for high-power sources.Control Interface: USB or PC-controlled meters simplify integration into automated systems and data logging.Calibration and Accuracy: Periodic calibration is recommended to maintain ±1–5% measurement accuracy.Accessories: Consider filters, adapters, and mounting options for specific OEM requirements. These compact optical power meters provide flexibility, precision, and integration capability, making them suitable for OEM applications in research, production, and high-speed optical communication testing.
