5.The splicer is precision adjusted and aligned.Do not allow the unit to
receive a strong shock or impact. Possible equipment failure may result. Use
carrying case to transport and store the splicer. The carrying case protects the
splicer from damage,moisture,vibration and shock during storage and
transportation.

6.Do not place the splicer in an unstable or unbalanced position.The


splicer may shift and lose balance,causing the unit to fall.Personal injury or
equipment damage may occur.

7.Keep the splicer free from sand,dust,lubricants and other contaminants.


The presence of such substances may degrade the splicing performance and
cause equipment failure or damage.

8.Do not use any chemical other than alcohol to clean the objective
lens,V-groove,mirror,LCD monitor,etc.,of the splicer. Otherwise, blurring,
discoloration, damage or deterioration may result.

9.The splicer requires no lubrication. Oil or grease may degrade the


splicing performance and damage the splicer.

10.Do not use compressed gas or canned air to clean the splicer. They
may contain flammable materials that may ignite during the electrical
discharge.
11.Do not store the splicer in any area where temperature and humidity
are extremely high. Possible equipment failure may result.

§3.6.Splicing operation
It uses image processing to identify abnormal conditions that
sometimes occur during the splicing process. A small portion of
these defects sometimes goes undetected and a poor quality splice
occurs. Visually inspect the fiber image on the monitor to confirm
acceptance or rejection during the various stage of the splicing
process.
(1)Start of splicing
Press< >moves the left and right fibers forward. After
completion of cleaning arc discharge, the fibers stop at the
predetermined position.
Note:When the fiber are moving forward and they appear to
hop up and down, contamination may be present in the
V-grooves or the fiber surface, Clean the V-grooves and
redo fiber preparation.
(2)Cleave angle measurement and alignment operation
Visually examine the condition of the fiber end-face while the
splicer is in operation or at a pause.
Check:Even if no cleave angle error is displayed, press< >and
redo fiber preparation if the following cases occur.

Fig 3-8 Alignment


Page 31
(3)Heating with arc discharge
After aligning the fibers, the splicer will produce a high voltage
arc discharge to fuse the fibers together. During arc discharge,
observe the fiber image on the monitor screen. If some part of the
image exhibits an extremely bright glow (hot spot),which is created
by burning contaminants located on the surface or end-face of the
fiber,there is a possibility that the fiber core will be deformed.
Although deformation can be detected by the loss estimation
function,a re-splice is recommended.

Fig.3-9 Fibers Being Spliced


(4)Splice Inspection
When the spliced state is abnormal,the splicer displays an error
message“Splice Lost”.A re-splice is recommended.
Note:It is best to perform an arc test at this stage for the
splicer to determine the best program for the fiber type.

§4.1.4 Program Test


Atmospheric conditions
such as
temperature,humidity,and
pressure are constantly
changing which create Arc Good
variability in the arc
temperature. The splicer
contains a temperature,
humidity,and pressure
sensors that are used in a
constant feedback monitoring
control system to regulate Arc too fierce
the arc power at a constant
level. Changes in arc power
due to electrode wear and
glass adhesion cannot be
corrected automatically.
Also, the center position of
arc discharge sometimes
shifts to the left or right. Arc too Weak

§4.2Periodical Checking and Cleaning
In order to maintain the splicing quality of the splicer, the points
of periodical inspection and cleaning are recommended.
§5.2.1.Electrode Replacement
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,a message prompting to replace the
electrodes is displayed immediately after turning on the power.
Using the electrodes without a replacement will result in higher
splice loss and reduced splice strength.
Electrode Changing
(1)Before cleaning the objective lenses, always turn off the
splicer.
(2)Remove the used electrode as in Fig 4-6
(3)Clean the electrode and then place to the fusion splicer
Check:Use approved electrodes for the splicer
Check:Be careful not to damage the electrode shaft or
tips when cleaning and installing in the
splicer,any damaged electrodes should be
discarded.
Check: When installing the electrodes,tighten screws no
more than finger tight while pushing the electrode
collars against the electrode fixtures,Incorrect
installation of the electrodes may result in
greater splice loss or damage to the circuit.
(4)Turn on the power , prepare and load fibers into the
splicer,

§4.2.2Cleaning Objective Lenses
If the surfaces of the objective lenses become dirty, normal
observation of the core position may be incorrect, resulting in
higher splice loss or poor splicer operation. Therefore, clean them
at regular intervals. Otherwise, dirt may accumulate and become
impossible to remove.
(l)Before cleaning the objective lenses, always turn off the
splicer.
(2)Gently clean the lens surface with an alcohol-impregnated thin
cotton swab as shown in Fig.4-7. Using a cotton swab, starting in
the center of the lens, move the swab in a circular motion until
you spiral to the edge of the lens surface. Remove excess alcohol
from the mirror surface with a clean dry swab.
Check:Use a high quality alcohol, greater than 99% pure.
Check:Be careful not to bend the electrodes.

§4.2.3Regular maintenance of battery
(1)The Internal battery is lithium battery without
memory,which could be charged at any time.The First charging
operation should last 18 hours to increase battery functional
efficiency.The later charging operation should last about 6
hours,the red indicator light means the charging is ongoing ,when
it turns to green,meaning the charging is completed.Fusion splicer
will stop work when the battery voltage is under 9v.
(2)Attention: The fuse will break off when short-circuit
occurred or the current is over than 15A.Please replace the broken
Fuse and check the circuit.
