  • Author: Chris Driscoll
End users of measurement instrumentation are interested in accuracy. They want the instrument to be predictable and consistent during measurements, and they need measurement assurance. High quality instrumentation provides assurance of predictable and consistent measurements through a robust quality system of calibration and traceability. ILX Lightwave has taken these concerns to heart in the development of our optical power meters by implementing a rigorous quality system in our calibration facility. This Application Note contains a map of our optical calibration traceability to NIST (Figure 1), describes our quality system, and some important issues regarding optical power meter calibrations.
