Ando AQ6315A Optical Spectrum Analyzer OSA repair and calibration services
Simbol Test Systems provides professional in-lab Ando AQ6315A Optical Spectrum Analyzer repair and calibration services to help maintain accurate, reliable performance for your optical test and measurement equipment. All calibration services are performed in our laboratory using documented procedures, traceable standards, and experienced technical staff.
Simbol has in-depth experience with AQ6315A troubleshooting and repair, including hardware and firmware-related faults. Our repair capabilities for this OSA include defective board repair, chopper motor repair or replacement, monochromator adjustment, and RF module repair or replacement. We can also investigate and resolve a wide range of error codes and error messages affecting instrument operation.
For this legacy Ando AQ6315A OSA, a proper service should include more than a basic report. Our process is designed to evaluate the actual condition of the instrument, verify performance, and perform calibration support where applicable, including calibration memory procedures when required.
Following calibration, your equipment may be returned with a calibration label, calibration certificate, and related calibration data. If the unit does not successfully complete calibration, we can evaluate the repair requirements and provide a repair quotation for approval before proceeding.
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).

Ando AQ6315A Optical Spectrum Analyzer – Repair and Calibration Services
The Ando AQ6315A Optical Spectrum Analyzer is one of the few OSAs capable of measuring in the visible range, making it a highly valuable and increasingly rare instrument. Simbol provides complete evaluation, calibration, and repair services for the AQ6315A, ensuring your unit meets or exceeds original manufacturer specifications.
AQ6315A Evaluation Process
Send us your AQ6315A for a full diagnostic evaluation. Once the evaluation is complete, you will receive a detailed report outlining the condition of your OSA along with our recommendations. In many cases, a calibration with updated calibration tables is all that is required. If repairs are necessary, we will issue a formal repair quotation.
Important: We only support AQ6315A units equipped with two fans on the back panel.
After repair, your OSA will be returned fully calibrated with all associated calibration data. Because the AQ6315A is now a scarce and highly sought‑after visible‑range OSA, repairing and maintaining your unit is a worthwhile investment.
AQ6315A Calibration
Our calibration ensures your AQ6315A meets or exceeds the manufacturer’s published specifications. Your unit will be shipped with a calibration sticker, calibration certificate, and complete calibration data, including before‑and‑after results (7 pages of measurement data).
