3 General description
The ferrule endface radius R is defined as the radius of curvature of the portion of the endface
which is domed for physical contact. It is assumed that the endface is spherical, although in
practice the endface is often aspherical (see figure 1).
R
IEC 2657/02
Figure 1 – Radius of curvature of the endface
Three methods are described in this standard for measuring the radius of curvature:
a) method 1: analyzing the endface with a two-dimensional surface analyzer;
b) method 2: analyzing the endface with a two-dimensional interferometry type surface
analyzer;
c) method 3: analyzing the endface with a three dimensional interferometry type surface
analyzer.
(Method 3 is a reference method.)

Rayon de la face terminale des ferrules polies sphériquement
1 Domaine d'application
La présente partie de la CEI 61300 décrit une procédure pour mesurer le rayon de la face
terminale d’une ferrule polie sphériquement et d’une ferrule angulaire ou d’une ferrule
angulaire polie sphériquement.
2 Références normatives
Les documents de référence suivants sont indispensables pour l'application du présent
document. Pour les références datées, seule l'édition citée s'applique. Pour les références
non datées, la dernière édition du document de référence s'applique (y compris les éventuels
amendements).
Aucune.
3 Description générale
Le rayon R de la face terminale de la ferrule est défini comme le rayon de la courbure de la
portion de la face terminale qui est bombée pour le contact physique. On suppose que la face
terminale est sphérique, bien qu'en pratique la face terminale est souvent asphérique (voir la
Figure 1).
R

Figure 1 – Rayon de courbure de la face terminale
Trois méthodes sont décrites dans la présente norme pour la mesure du rayon de courbure:
a) méthode 1: analyser la face terminale avec un analyseur de surface bidimensionnel;
b) méthode 2: analyser la face terminale avec un analyseur de surface bidimensionnel de
type interférométrie;
c) méthode 3: analyser la face terminale avec un analyseur de surface tridimensionnel de
type interférométrie .
(La méthode 3 est une méthode de référence.)
