Optical Connectors
All Fiber Optic Connectors on the OPM3 should be kept clean. Clean the proximal end of the male
optical connectors with a dedicated fiber optic cleaner tool. Clean the inside of the female optical
connectors with a dedicated
fiber optic cleaner tool.
•
The Handle Unit’s optical connector (female) should be cleaned before every new connection of
a OptoWire pressure guide wire.
•
Both the Handle Unit’s optical connector (male) and the Optical Units’ optical connector
(female) should be cleaned before being connected during installation.
•
To keep the Handle Unit’s optical connector (male) and the Optical Units’ optical connector
(female) clean, it is always recommended to keep them connected. Disconnect only when the
unit needs replacing. In case of a disconnection, it is recommended to insert the Handle Unit’s
dust cap protector. Only remove the cap when ready to connect the optical connectors again.
•
Dust entering the connector(s) may reduce the optical signal quality and generate “No optical
signal” warning messages.
