Do fiber optic connectors need to be cleaned frequently? Let's take a look at the operation process together! Why not use a cotton ball dipped in alcohol to clean the optical connector?
The cleaning requirements of optical fiber connectors are much higher than those of camera lenses. Cotton or only lens paper has thicker fibers, which can easily cause wear on the fiber optic connector. For optical fiber test instruments, it is even forbidden to use cotton balls or lens paper to clean the optical fiber connectors.
Why use OAM fiber optic connector cleaner?
OAM optical fiber interface cleaner is a high-tech product developed and researched by OMA Corporation of the United States, which is used to clean various optical fiber interfaces in optical fiber communication transmission network. The effect achieved can make the optical signal return loss as small as hundreds of thousands or even one millionth.
OAM optical fiber interface cleaner adopts alcohol-free special fiber, which has the following advantages:
(1) Safe and reliable: Compared with traditional cleaning methods such as alcohol, ether plus cotton balls or lens paper, which are prone to secondary contamination, the unique design structure and material selection make each cleaning achieve ideal results. No adverse effects on the environment and operators. It can effectively prevent fires caused by alcohol and ethanol.
(2) Easy to use: No need to carry many other traditional supplies during work, just wipe the dust and grease on the optical fiber connection interface to be cleaned.
(3) Economic benefits: The new design structure and patented product materials greatly reduce the production cost. Commodity prices are only a fraction of similar imported products. Each box of cleaning tape can clean more than 500 optical fiber interfaces, and the cleaning tape in the cleaner can be replaced.
(4) Wide range of uses: it can be used not only in optical experiment research institutes, but also in the construction and maintenance of indoor and outdoor optical fiber communication, and in the quality assurance of optical fiber equipment and component suppliers.
(5) Strong applicability: It can be used for various types of optical fiber interfaces such as SC, FC, LC, ST, D4, and DIN.
How to use OAM Fiber Connector Cleaner?
•Push away the pull button on the upper end of the fiber optic interface cleaner, put the contaminated fiber optic connector joint into one of the cleaning slots and wipe it with a little force.
• After the initial cleaning, in order to ensure the cleaning effect, you can put the joint into another cleaning tank to clean it again.
• After cleaning, release the pull key, and the pull key will automatically close. so used repeatedly.
Why Use Compressed Gas Dusters?
Compressed gas dust remover, also known as "gas brush", is especially suitable for occasions where conventional dust removal methods are difficult to work. It can safely and quickly remove dust, lint, metal ions and other pollutants on the surface of precision electronics and optical instruments. This product is widely used in dust removal and maintenance of various optical fiber communications, printed circuit boards, electronic instruments, optical instruments, electronic computers, intelligent equipment, communication equipment, audio-visual equipment, medical equipment, advanced cameras, video cameras, video cameras, etc. This product is flexible dust removal, safe and without damage.
How to use compressed gas dust remover?
Hold the compressed gas dedusting agent in hand, the tank body is upright, 5-10cm away from the cleaning object, pull off the safety piece on the upper part of the actuator, and press the actuator briefly and frequently to blow off. Use extension tubes for hard-to-reach areas.
Do not shake or tilt the tank during use. Doing so will cause the compressed gas inside the tank to escape in liquid form, which may freeze the skin or damage the glass.
Continuous use of compressed gas dedusting agent will lead to a decline in the purging force, but it can return to normal after a period of time.
