. Clean and maintenance method of the optical fiber active
connector
In many times, we consider the decline of the optical power as the equipment
faults, but actually it may be caused by that the optical fiber connector was polluted
by dust or dirt. Inspect the fiber connector, component, or bulkhead with a fiberscope.
If the connector is dirty, clean it with a cleaning technique following these steps:
1.
Turn off the device power supply and carefully pull off the optical fiber connector
from the adapter.
2.
Wash carefully with good quality lens wiping paper and medical absorbent
alcohol cotton. If use the medical absorbent alcohol cotton, still need to wait 1~2
minutes after wash, let the connector surface dry in the air.
3.
Cleaned optical connector should be connected to optical power meter to measure
optical output power to affirm whether it has been cleaned up.
4.
When connect the cleaned optical connector back to adapter, should notice to
make force appropriate to avoid china tube in the adapter crack.
5.
If the optical output power is not normal after cleaning, should pull off the
adapter and clean the other connector. If the optical power still low after cleaning,
the adapter may be polluted, clean it. (Note: Be carefully when pull off the
adapter to avoid hurting inside fiber.
)
6.
Use compressed air or degrease alcohol cotton to wash the adapter carefully.
When use compressed air, the muzzle aims at china tube of the adapter, clean the
china tube with compressed air. When use degrease alcohol cotton, insert
directions need be consistent, otherwise can’t reach a good clean effect.
