How to calibrate an inaccurate PDA optical power meter

This guide covers when to calibrate, what calibration actually involves, what a legitimate certificate looks like, and how to verify your meter's accuracy between calibrations. Send the meter to a NIST-traceable calibration lab. This can result in you making decisions based on incorrect information, which can lead to mistakes. Although calibrating your optical power meter sounds challenging, it is very simple if you. Optical power meters are designed to measure optical power in a specified wavelength range as accurately as possible. These measurements are accomplished using either collimated-beam or connectorized-fiber. We traceably calibrate a variety of fiber optic & free-space optical test equipment, including your Kingfisher tester.
