AFL Telecommunications is pleased to offer a unique technology in fiber connector end-face cleaning. Rather than a fabric-covered or foam-covered stick, we are offering a molded cleaning tip that will trap contamination and wick cleaning solvents from bulkhead connectors. This new cleaning tip is a molded, sintered polymer that is both porous and pliable conforming to virtually any fiber end-face polish geometry while trapping and absorbing contaminants.
Features:
•
Molded sintered polymer construction assures perfect bulkhead fit and consistent performance with each cleaning tip
•
No fibers, binders, adhesives or outgassing that may contaminate the connector
•
Traps and holds liquid and particle contaminants in an absorbent open cell matrix ranging from 10-25 microns
•
The elastic cleaning head enhances entrapment of particles and oils, while allowing the tip to conform to virtually any fiber end-face geometry (8 degree, domed polish, etc.)
•
Very absorbent
•
US and Foreign patents pending
Applications:
•
Dual-head design permits wet and dry cleaning in one swab
•
Solvent and chemical resistant, not physically altered by solvent contact
•
Designed to work with Noyes FCC2, Fiber Connector Cleaner
•
Most connectors cleaned the first time configured for the job
•
Cleaning tip exposed for cleaning ferrule end-faces in alignment sleeves that are recessed within sockets or bulkhead adaptors
•
Also available with cleaning tips recessed in the “straw” for cleaning exposed ferrules and termini (jumpers)
•
Cleaning tips available for most common commercial and Mil Spec ferrule sizes
•
Quality construction with unlimited shelf life
•
Cleaning tips are available in bags of 20, 5 bags per box, 10 boxes per carton
Tip Configurations:
•
Cleaning tip exposed for cleaning ferrule end-faces in alignment sleeves that are recessed within sockets or bulkhead adaptors
•
Also available with cleaning tips recessed in the “straw” for cleaning exposed ferrules and termini (jumpers)
