Introduction to ROF Optical Delay Line

Introduction to ROF Optical Delay Line
The ROF series of optical delay line can achieve continuous and precise adjustment and control of optical phase, and are widely used in fields such as optical interference, microwave communication, and spectral analysis. According to the driving method, it is divided into two categories: the Motorized optical delay line MODL series (stepper motor drive, supporting remote computer control) and the manual optical delay line ODL series (knob drive, no external power supply required), covering the full range phase control requirements from 330ps to 2000ps.
1 Motorized optical delay line MODL sub series
Powered by an electric stepper motor and compatible with RS485/RS422/RS232 remote control, suitable for automated testing and precision control systems:
MODL-300: Low volume basic model, maximum delay 333ps
MODL-600: Medium Range Standard, Maximum Delay 666ps
MODL-1000: High precision version with a large range, maximum delay of 1000ps
MODL-1200: Ultra large range version with a maximum delay of 1200ps
MODL-2000: Extra large travel model with a maximum delay of 2000ps
2 Manual Optical Delay Line ODL Subseries
