Optical Fiber Connector Inspection and Cleaning Guide
CAUTION: It is imperative that a fiber connector is checked for dust, dirt, or damage every time
before it is connected with an optical head or beam coupler. The use of a dirty, or improperly
cleaned, fiber connector can lead to serious damage to the laser (Figure 19: Fiber Quartz Block
Inspection illustrates possible fiber failures). IPG Photonics is not responsible for any damages
due to contaminated connectors. Tampering with the fiber connectors without training by IPG will
void the warranty.
For cleaning a fiber connector, you need the following materials:
Powder free rubber gloves or finger cots
Lint free optical cleaning wipes and/or swabs
Acetone (optical grade, water free)
Compressed air (oil free, water free)
Microscope (IPG model or equivalent)
Light Source
Lens Tissue and Cleaning Swabs Microscope Kit (IPG US model)
IMPORTANT: It is imperative that you wear powder free rubber gloves during this cleaning
procedure!
It is hereby stated that damage to the fiber connector can occur due to mishandling, the use of
incorrect cleaning procedures or chemicals for cleaning and is not covered by the warranty.
Acetone should be handled and stored in accordance to any local regulations (e.g. OSHA
Regulation 29 CFR 1910.1200). Refer to each solvent
’s MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet) for
additional information.
