FITEL S185LDF Large Diameter Fiber Splicer

Overview

The FITEL S185LDF High-end Fusion Splicer is designed for splicing standard diameter 80 µm up to 500 µm cladding fiber with low splice loss. The powerful and compact design has been optimized for the fiber laser industry. The new fiber alignment mechanism achieves low splice loss and the new design allows for the fiber clamps to land gently to reduce the possibility of damage to fiber. Battery operation and a compact design make transportation easy for the LDF Fusion splicer.

Key Capabilities

LDF splicing up to 500 µm
Low splice loss
Compact size
High capacity built-in battery (optional)
LCD touch panel provides easy operation
