Diamond PS connectors are based on contacted expanded beam technology where a section of graded index fibre is spliced onto a collimating lens, which enlarges the beam diameter and reduces power density at the connector interface. A lower power density inhibits phenomena, such as “fibre fuse” and fibre optic surface damaging, mainly due to micrometric contaminants that become hot spots. Diamond PS connector systems are designed for high power applications up to 16 Watts optical power for single-mode (SM) fibres used in fibre sensor systems and high-power laser applications often used in the medical and industrial fields.
