Replace Electrode
Electrodes wear with use and also must be cleaned periodically due to silica oxide
buildup. It is recommended that the electrodes should be replaced after 1,000 arc
discharges. When the number of arc discharges reaches a count of 1,000, a message
prompting to replace the electrodes is displayed immediately after turning on the power.
Using the electrodes without a replacement will result in greater splice loss and reduced
splice strength.
Replacement Procedure
(1) Execute [Replace Electrode] in
[Maintenance Menu 1].
(2) Instruction messages will appear on
the screen to turn off the power. Press
and hold till the LED color
changes from green to red.
(3) Remove the old electrodes.
To remove and replace the electrodes:
(i) Loosen screw located on electrode cover.
(ii) Take electrode out of electrode cover. (Electrode is fit in electrode cover)
(4) Clean the new electrodes with alcohol-impregnated clean gauze or lint-free tissue
and install them in the splicer.
(i) Fit the electrode in the electrode cover.
(ii) Place the electrode cover on the splicer and tighten screw.
• Do not pull out wiring when replacing electrode.
• Apply tightening torque of 2kgf-cm when tightening screw to fix electrode
cover.
