Maintenance of Splicing Quality
1-3. Cleaning Fiber Clamp Chips
If contaminants are present on the clamp
chips, proper clamping may not occur,
resulting in poor quality splices. The fiber
clamp chips should be frequently inspected
and periodically cleaned during normal
operation. To clean the clamp chips, do the
following:
(1) Open the wind protector.
(2) Clean the surface of the clamp chip with
an alcohol-impregnated thin cotton
swab. Remove excess alcohol from the
clamp chip with a clean dry swab.
1-4. Cleaning Fiber Cleaver
If the circular blade or elastomer clamp pads of the fiber cleaver become contaminated,
the cleaving quality could degrade. This may lead to fiber surface or end-face
contamination, resulting in higher splice loss. Clean the circular blade or elastomer
clamp pads with cotton swab soaked with alcohol.
