This unit
The Burleigh WA-2000 Wavemeter Junior is a compact, cost-effective instrument for precise laser wavelength measurement using Michelson interferometer technology. It delivers absolute wavelength measurements across the UV-to-near-infrared spectrum with high accuracy and resolution. The unit features an intuitive digital interface and durable construction suitable for research laboratories and industrial environments.
A collimated laser beam input couples to the optical engine, with wavelength values displayed on an integrated digital readout. Serial communication ports enable data logging and remote system integration.

Burleigh WA-2000 — Repair & Calibration Service
Aumictech offers NIST-traceable calibration and repair for the Burleigh WA-2000. Calibration covers absolute wavelength accuracy at multiple reference points across the full measurement range, frequency accuracy, wavenumber accuracy, and multi-wavelength channel spacing measurement accuracy. All calibrations ship with a NIST-traceable certificate. Turnaround is typically 1–3 business days after receipt.
Common Burleigh WA-2000 faults: interferometer alignment drift, reference etalon or HeNe laser end-of-life, InGaAs detector sensitivity loss, fiber input connector damage. Fizeau interferometer-based instruments (Agilent 86120B/86122A/C) most commonly develop interferometer alignment drift and InGaAs detector degradation over time. Burleigh WA-series scanning Fabry-Perot instruments most commonly fail due to reference HeNe laser end-of-life. Both types are fully repairable with post-repair wavelength accuracy verification.
