Preface
Description
The Greenlee Communications 910FS Optical Fiber Fusion Splicer is intended to fuse
bers, resulting in low splice loss and long-term stable splices. Splice loss depends on
certain conditions such as ber preparation, splicing parameters, and ber condition.
The 910FS fusion splicer uses a CDS (Core Detection System), which is also widely
known as PAS (Prole Alignment System). Two cameras sense the center of the core
of the bers, with the fusion splicer then adjusting in the X, Y, and Z dimensions to
automatically and precisely align the two ber cores. A fusing arc is applied, which then
provides the lowest loss fusion splice.
The 910FS with PAS technology is designed for splicing many types of optical bers.
It is small in size and lightweight, making it suitable for any operating environment. It is
easy to operate, and it splices fast while maintaining low splice loss.
