90S+ In Work Tray Wind Protector Open

Fujikura 90S+ Fusion Splicer
The Fujikura 90S+ core alignment fusion splicer solves common problems seen in the field-- from splicing poor quality legacy fiber to automated equipment maintenance and upkeep. The Fujikura 90S+ can be use in multiple field splicing applications including bend-insensitive fibers in drop cables, long-haul terrestrial and submarine LEAF® fibers, loose buffer fiber, splice-on connectors, and the list goes on. The speed and accuracy of the 90S+ make it suitable for certain production and specialty environments where high output, tight packaging, and low loss requirements are required.
Regardless of your scenario, the Fujikura 90S+ is designed to keep you in the field with an extended battery life of 300 splice and heat cycles. With its multiple automated and easy-touse features, the 90S+ alleviates the need for traditional operation tasks such as frequent arc calibrations, cleaver blade rotations, cleaver usage tracking, and manual splicing operations. A redesigned work tray, cooling tray, and optional cable clamp make the 90S+ kit more versatile than its predecessors in adapting to varying work conditions and environments.
When splicing loose buffer fiber, additional sheath clamps are not needed. The standard universal sheath clamp now handles both loose and tight buffer fibers. The new Active Fusion Control (AFC) technology improves splice losses for fibers that possess a poor cleave angle. Combined with Active Blade Management between the splicer and cleaver, the Fujikura 90S+ contains a robust set of splicing features that will reduce the likelihood of poor splice installations or repairs.

Fujikura 41S+ Fusion Splicer
The Fujikura 41S+ is a fully ruggedized, two camera, active cladding alignment fusion splicer. Enabled by Warm Splice Imaging (WSI), the 41S+ can determine the alignment of the fiber cores by observing the splice during the heating process. This delivers splice loss estimates with a greater level of accuracy than those based on cladding only alignment. Active Blade Management (ABM) via Bluetooth® connection with the CT50 Fiber Cleaver tracks usage and enables automated blade rotation as needed, mitigating fiber reburns. The new Active Fusion Control (AFC) technology further reduces reburns by improving splice losses for fibers with poor cleave angles. With the combination of ABM and AFC, the Fujikura 41S+ contains a robust set of splicing features that will reduce the likelihood of poor splice installations or repairs.
A 6-second splice time and 25-second shrink time offers unmatched speed and productivity, while an easy-to-use touchscreen monitor provides simple and intuitive menu navigation. Interchangeable sheath clamps or fiber holders provide versatility for user preference, and compatibility with splice-on connectors. The extended-life battery is rated for up to 200 splice and heat cycles. Long-life electrodes provide 5,000 splices and help minimize downtime for replacement and stabilization. The large 5" monitor provides a crystal-clear image, even in the brightest sunlight. Software updates are accomplished via the internet allowing users to quickly update their software as new splice programs become available.
Backed by the best service team in the industry, the Fujikura 41S+ is the ideal splicer to use when portability, ruggedness, and reliability are needed for splicing applications.

Fusion Splicing

90R In Work Tray

Fujikura 90R Fusion Splicer
The Fujikura 90R is the mass fusion splicer workhorse of the splicing world. As data demand continues to rise, the solution to handle the increased traffic is to increase fiber counts. As a result, fiber counts being utilized in enterprise data centers, campus, and metro networks have grown enough to make single fiber splicing too costly and timely. High density cabling made possible by SpiderWeb Ribbon® (SWR®) and others like it are spurring ribbon splicing activity in places that have traditionally used loose fiber. The 90R is the answer to these changes in splicing demand. With automated splice start, tube heater, wind protector, cleave tracking, and blade rotations for up to 2 cleavers at a time, this splicer frees up operator time for other fiber preparation steps. New to the 90R, you can keep your splicer in the field longer with field replaceable V-grooves. When V-grooves can no longer be cleaned after extended use, or are accidentally damaged, you can resume splicing in minutes by installing the spare set included with your 90R kit. Put our 90R to the test by contacting us to see its capabilities first-hand, 1-800-235-3423.

CT50 Fiber Cleaver
The CT50 features automated blade rotation, unprecedented durability, and simplistic maintenance unseen with any other cleaver. Paired with a Bluetooth enabled Fujikura splicer, cleaver blade positions can be automatically advanced when needed based on cleave count or cleave quality. If automated rotation is not desired, the blade position can be advanced at the touch of a button, no tools required. The easy to read blade position indicator clearly displays the selected position. The Bluetooth® feature, along with simplified mechanical operation, increases overall productivity and reliability. The fiber clamp opens beyond 90 degrees and readies the blade for cleaving in the same motion. This allows easy viewing of the distance scale used to gauge cleave length. The 16-position blade yields 60,000 single-fiber cleaves, or 5,000 12-fiber ribbon cleaves. The built-in scrap collector conveniently stores fiber shards until they can be safely discarded.
The CT50 is an industry first cleaver ruggedized to withstand severe shock, including drops up to 30 inches. If needed, the CT50 is field serviceable with all precision components easily replaced in the field.

CT08 Fiber Cleaver
The CT08 cleaver is an extremely rugged, durable, and easy to use single fiber cleaver. Ideal for FTTH applications, the CT08 provides unmatched levels of impact resistance and also eliminates the requirement for tools during blade rotation. A thumbwheel on the bottom of the cleaver is utilized for blade rotation, and the blade position indicator has been relocated to enable quick and easy viewing. The top clamp opens to a position past vertical allowing for easy viewing, cleaning, and adjustment of the cleave length. The blade is retracted automatically when opening the top clamp and is activated upon closing, making this a true one-step cleaver. The cleaver blade and fiber clamping mechanism is extremely easy to replace in the field. A manual scrap collector is included.

FAA-03A

Ribbon Forming Adhesive
A key advantage of our fiber arrangement tool is the use of the ribbon forming adhesive. Ribbons formed with this adhesive have excellent stripability, especially compared to ribbonizing methods using tape. Unlike tape methods, the paste does not "gum-up" the stripping tool and cause broken fibers. The paste holds the stripped coating residue into a single piece of debris that is easily cleaned from the stripper. If needed, the ribbon can be easily separated into individual fibers using alcohol.

Cleaning

Fusion Splicing

Splicer V-groove Cleaning Refill Kit

Splicer V-groove Cleaning Kit
Today's splicing equipment is fast, efficient, and requires minimal maintenance due to advances in splicing technology. However, contamination in the V-groove of the splicer is still a primary source of trouble for the splicing technician. This is especially problematic when splicing with a fixed V-groove fusion splicer. Environmental contamination, such as dust, dirt and fiber coating debris, as well as the silica deposits generated during the fusion process eventually find their way to the surface of the v-groove. This contamination will offset the fibers and degrade performance. To help control this problem, a disciplined cleaning regimen and specific tooling is required to ensure the splice is right the first time.
To solve cleaning needs, AFL offers the Splicer V-groove Cleaning Kit. This product integrates eight components into an affordable and effective inspection and cleaning solution for any fusion splicer. Small and lightweight, it fits easily into the Fujikura splicer transit case or it can be carried separately in its own carrying case.

Kit Includes
· Scrubber Brush with stiff tapered nylon bristles
· Sweeper Brush with soft nylon bristles · Eye Loupe with 3X to 12X magnification · LED Pen Light with momentary or
constant on switching

· Cleaning Fluid that is nonflammable and environmentally safe
· Lint-free Cotton Swabs · Instruction Sheet with illustrations · Canvas Carrying Case

FSR-05, FSR-06 and FSR-07 Optical Fiber Recoaters
AFL offers a complete lineup of high quality fiber recoaters to address the small packaging needs of the fiber optic industry. The FSR series recoaters provide automatic operation with an easily exchangeable, low cost, mold design. A quick change resin bottle and pump assembly make messy, cumbersome, and time consuming acrylate changes a thing of the past. The pump system also provides a purge cavity for elimination of bubbles in the acrylate material. A programmable resin injection system provides an exact volume of resin to the mold cavity to ensure consistent and repeatable recoat performance. While the base model FSR-05 provides only recoating functions, the FSR-06 and FSR- 07 also provide programmable rate and force proof-testing capabilities up to 2 kgf or 10 kgf respectively. All of the recoaters are compatible with special recoating resins to provide higher stiffness recoating for 900 m jacketed fibers, as well as specialty low-index resins for recoating of double-clad fibers. A USB - PC interface allows the user to control and store key parameters associated with the recoating process. The quartz mold technology provides very consistent recoating quality and have an estimated lifetime of 10,000 recoats per mold set.

Fusion Splicing

CT-101 and CT-102 Fiber Cleavers
Precise cleaving is required for photonic splicing applications as the types of optical fiber become more diversified to meet new applications. In addition, angled cleaving is often required for low back-reflection fiber end preparation. The CT-101 and CT-102 have been developed to offer adjustability and versatility for these various fiber types and applications while offering superior tension cleaving performance beyond conventional cleavers that utilize a scribe and bend cleaving method. The CT-101 and CT-102 are equipped with a motorized diamond blade that touches the fiber after tension has been applied providing high-strength cleaving capability. The CT-101 is designed to accommodate the Fujikura FH-100 fiber holders while the CT-102 has been designed to accommodate the FH-70 fiber holders.

Features
· Diamond blade with long blade life · Large diameter fiber cleaving capability (fiber diameter range 80 to 250 µm) · Angle cleaving capability (0 to 15 degrees) · Cleave counter · Adjustable cleave length · Dual power sources (4 "AA" batteries or AC adapter)

CT-104+, CT-105+ and CT-106+ Fiber Cleavers
When exceptional cleave quality is required for fibers up to 1,250 m, the new large diameter CT-104+/CT-105+/CT-106+ cleaver family provides a variety of options depending on your needs. The color LCD shows cleaving progress and recommended insert size depending on fiber coating and cladding diameter. Saving and storing cleaving programs to a PC or tablet is accomplished using a USB port. The LDF cleaver's extensive programming features allow for optimal results.
Excess clamping force may deform the coating or worsen the cleave angle due to rotational stress by the clamps. Therefore, to get good cleaving quality, the clamping force should be the minimum force that does not slip while the cleaver applies fiber tension. The optimum clamping force depends on the optical fibers structure and coating material. The CT105+/ CT-106+ cleavers feature a new technology that finds the optimum clamping force automatically and accurately.

Fusion Splicing

Strip, Clean & Fiber Prep

Features
· Quick stripping ­ A razorblade is applied to the fiber with specific tension and the coating is precisely planed along the fiber automatically. The process requires less time than the conventional methods of acid or heat. For a 125 µm fiber, 4 stripping passes at 90º rotational positions are typically required, and complete stripping is accomplished within 25 seconds. Larger fiber sizes require more stripping passes (at smaller rotational angle increments).
· Safe, high quality stripping ­ Because hot acid is not used, the operation is much safer. In addition, the fiber quality degradation is kept at a minimum as the glass surface is not damaged by oxidization of the coating during burning or arcing.
· Flexible ­ Many parameters, such as the razor blade position and stroke, and fiber rotation angle are all adjustable for various fiber sizes and coating materials.

PCS-100 Polyimide Coating Stripper
Polyimide coated optical fiber are now widely used in the oil and gas and medical industries. The polyimide coating has superior heat and chemical resistance to conventional UV curable coating material, but the coating requires additional care to remove. Dangerous chemical stripping using hot sulfuric acid or burning the coating off are common methods to strip the fiber due to the thin coating and strong coating adhesion to the fiber cladding. AFL's PCS-100 Polyimide Fiber Coating Stripper is the first tool that uses a mechanical stripping method, providing a safe, consistent and quick stripping solution.

Optimization Services

Fusion Splicing
Optimization Services
With the constant introduction of new fiber types as well as the mixing of fiber types in opto-electronic devices such as optical amplifiers and sensors, splicer optimization is essential in minimizing splice loss and keeping splices physically robust. AFL provides an optimization service to determine the optimal settings for any combination of fiber types in any of our splicers. This process involves changing over 50 splicer machine parameters, ranging from splicer arc power to fiber movement rate. These parameters change significantly with fiber characteristics such as fiber diameter, refractive index profile, and dopant composition. In the FSM-45F/PM and FSM-100M/P fusion splicers, optimization plays an important role in maximizing the benefits of sweep arc technology, which minimizes the effects of differences in mode field diameters in a pair of fibers, thereby minimizing splice loss. Splicers also include loss estimation functions, a separate loss estimation optimization is performed to maximize the accuracy of the loss estimation function on the machine to provide the most accurate splice loss readings. All of the parameters can be easily downloaded into a fusion splicer once complete.
