Splice Operation
Make sure the stripped fiber is
free of coating debris or
contamination.
Use only 99% or better purity
alcohol.
Do not allow the cleaved fiber
ends to touch anything or
become contaminated.
Place the fiber end between
V-groove edge and Electrode
center.
* Hold the fiber at edge of splicer body.
** Apply tension to the fiber until heater
holds the fiber.
Marking
When splicing only standard SM fibers (ITU-T G.652),
“SM AUTO” mode is recommended.
When splicing different types of fibers, “AUTO” mode is
recommended, but splice speed is slow.
Splicing speed of “SM FAST” mode is fast, but periodical
Arc calibration is required.

When splicer indicates following message, splice loss may be high
“Arc discharge is not stable. Electrodes should be stabilized to reform the arc discharge.”
Load prepared SM fibers onto splicer in order to stabilize electrodes. After completeing it, re-splice fibers.
When an altitude changes drastically, stabilizing elctrodes must be excecuted before splicing.
