Description
Newport ORION-CM 3-Axis Single Mode Fiber Alignment System Controller GPIB
Benchtop controller for single-mode fiber optic alignment and coupling applications. Operates three motorized axes (X, Y, Z) via GPIB interface and includes dither module capability for precision fiber positioning.
Specifications & What's Included
- 3-axis control (X, Y, Z) with DIN connectors
- GPIB interface with configurable addresses
- Compatible with Newport AD100 actuators
- Integrated detector input with auto/manual range selection
- Display units: nA, µA, mA, nW, µW, mW, dBm, nm
- Photo current meter: 10-9 to 10-2 A range with bar graph
- Power: 90–120V or 200–240V AC, 50/60 Hz
- Unit only; no accessories included
Applications
This controller type is used in optical test labs, telecommunications manufacturing, and research environments for coupling light into single-mode fibers with submicron positioning precision. It integrates with GPIB-based measurement systems and works alongside Newport motorized stages and actuators for automated alignment workflows.
Condition: Used
This Newport ORION-CM 3-Axis Single Mode Fiber Alignment System Controller has been inspected and is in good used condition. It was pulled from a working environment where it was in active use and functional. The front panel shows some scuffing and label wear — most notably dark marks/residue on the label area visible in photos — but the overall chassis and controls appear clean and intact. The rear DIN axis connectors and GPIB port show normal use. Please view our photo set and contact us if you have any questions.
