This Leak Detection Kit with 1550 nm Source and Ge Probe was designed to locate energy leaks in fiberoptic systems due to splice loss, connector loss, breakage, or bending. By simply sweeping over a fiber, the leak detection probe will beep whenever it encounters a light loss point. Generally performing the same function as a visible laser source, this product is primarily used in OTDR dead zone areas or splice enclosures where exact pinpointing of a fault is critical.

Photonix PX-D604 Leak Detection Kit with 1550 nm Source and Ge Probe was designed to locate energy leaks in fiberoptic systems due to splice loss, connector loss, breakage, or bending. By simply sweeping over a fiber, the leak detection probe will beep whenever it encounters a light loss point. Generally performing the same function as a visible laser source, this product is primarily used in OTDR dead zone areas or splice enclosures where exact pinpointing of a fault is critical. The major advantage of the FLASHdetector over a visible laser however is that it can see cable faults in bright room light as well as in many blue, green, and black coated fibers The typical sensitivity for the optical probe is approximately -65dBm.
Keep in mind that although some power meters can read these low power levels, the FLASHdetector can discriminate these levels in ambient room light tens of thousands of times brighter than the average leak. What this means is that the light lost from a single-mode fiber bent around a finger may be detected up to 12" (30.48 cm) away and that connector end face emission from a good single-mode fiber can be seen from over 100' away, even in normal room light
