Inspect Then Connect
These are Clearfield recommended products/applications. Use the product
you feel will complete your cleaning procedures. Create a “best practice” for
your company and follow those procedures.
The use of Chemtronics end face and bulkhead cleaning products and
techniques ensures a clean end face, no matter the type of contamination.
Before cleaning any connector, be sure you know what type of contaminate
you are cleaning (dry, fluidic, or combination). All the available products are
good, it’s the process that you need to be aware of. Using a dry cleaning
method to clean “dirt” can lead to scratching of the end face. Learn the
process of cleaning properly.
Note: It is NOT recommended to use isopropyl alcohol to clean the end face.
Cleaning an SC/LC Connector
Cleaning the End Face
• Place one wiping paper on QbE-2 FiberSafe™ Cleaning Platen.
( Figure 1)
• Apply small amount of precision cleaner (about 1” in diameter) with
Electro-Wash MX pen on to one end of the wipe. ( Figure 2)
• Hold end face at a 90 degree angle. For APC connection, adjust by
slightly tilting the container or end face. Angle is correct when no drag is
felt on the end face. ( Figure 3)
• Draw end face from wet to dry part of the wipe 3 times. Use just enough
pressure to ensure complete contact between end face and the wipe.
Note: DO NOT retrace previous step.

Connector Cleaning Procedure
Whether factory terminated or field spliced, clean connectors are essential for proper system operation. Even the smallest
dust particle can cause transmission problems, so for optimal network performance inspect, and if necessary, clean
connectors and adapters prior to mating.
