Agilent 86142B Optical Spectrum Analyzer Calibration and Repair Services
Simbol Test Systems Inc. provides professional Agilent 86142B Optical Spectrum Analyzer calibration and repair services for customers who require accurate and reliable performance from their optical test equipment. We specialize in the repair of optical spectrum analyzers (OSA), tunable laser sources (TLS), and wavelength meters.
We have experience servicing the Agilent 86142B OSA, including troubleshooting and repair of the common Error 20002 fault. On the 86142B, this error indicates a problem in the slot positioning system, typically involving the motor that controls the resolution bandwidth slit wheel. When this fault occurs, the instrument may no longer operate correctly and measurement accuracy may be affected.
All calibration services are performed in our laboratory using documented procedures, traceable standards, and experienced technical staff. Traceability: Instrumentation used during this calibration is traceable to N.I.S.T. (National Institute of Standards and Technology) or C.N.R.C. (Canadian National Research Council). Contact us with your model number and a brief description of the issue to request a calibration quote or repair evaluation.
Agilent / HP 86142B Optical Spectrum Analyzer – Calibration & Repair Services
Send your Agilent 86142B Optical Spectrum Analyzer to our laboratory for a complete diagnostic evaluation, including motor repair or replacement, optical alignment verification, and subsystem testing. After repair, your OSA is returned fully calibrated with complete calibration data and a calibration report, ensuring the instrument meets its original performance specifications.
