Service & Repair of Ando AQ6317B Optical Spectrum Analyzer OSA
Ando AQ6317B & AQ6317C Optical Spectrum Analyzer – Professional Repair, Service & NIST-Traceable Calibration
We offer expert repair, calibration, and restoration services for the Ando AQ6317B and AQ6317C Optical Spectrum Analyzers (OSA)—industry-standard tools trusted by optical labs, telecom equipment manufacturers, and photonics researchers. These models are known for their exceptional wavelength accuracy, wide dynamic range, and fine resolution bandwidth control. Whether you’re dealing with signal inconsistencies, drift, display issues, or full system failure, our skilled technicians can restore your unit to factory performance standards.
Detailed Repair & Calibration Workflow
Full Diagnostic Evaluation
Each AQ6317B or AQ6317C that enters our facility undergoes a multi-stage evaluation using calibrated optical sources and tunable lasers to test:
Wavelength accuracy across 600–1750 nm
Optical power linearity and sensitivity
Sweep speed, resolution bandwidth, and signal response
Grating motor and sweep drive operation
Display output and front panel response
Communication interfaces (GPIB/RS232)
Internal temperature regulation and system stability
We simulate real-world conditions to capture both obvious and subtle hardware or optical path issues.
Common Issues We Fix
No signal detection or erratic trace behavior
Wavelength drift or incorrect measurements
Internal noise or degraded signal-to-noise ratio
Sweep motor failure or grating movement issues
CRT or LCD screen dimming, flicker, or failure
Power supply instability, reboots, or shutdowns
Input port damage or poor fiber coupling
Boot-up errors, system lockups, or failing firmware
Precision Electronics & Optical Repair
We perform component-level repairs on all major internal subsystems:
Analog front-end signal circuits
A/D converters and digital processors
Sweep and grating control boards
Power supply modules and fan controllers
CRT or LCD driver circuits
All repairs are followed by performance testing under varying conditions.
Optical System Realignment & Cleaning
Internal optics are thoroughly cleaned, realigned, and recalibrated. We service the monochromator, fiber couplers, mirrors, and diffraction gratings to restore optimal alignment, reduce insertion loss, and ensure repeatable trace quality.
Firmware & Functional Testing
After repairs, we validate firmware and configuration parameters, run built-in self-tests, and confirm that all UI elements and automation functions (e.g., remote control via GPIB) operate correctly.
NIST-Traceable Final Calibration
Using certified reference lasers and optical power sources, we perform a complete NIST-traceable calibration, including:
Wavelength accuracy testing
Optical power level calibration and linearity verification
Resolution bandwidth, sweep time, and dynamic range checks
Each unit is delivered with a detailed calibration certificate showing pre- and post-repair data.
