3. SUN-AL Series High-Precision Fiber Aligners (V Grooves)
Usage Instructions:
SUN-AL Series High-Precision Fiber Aligners are mainly applied to the active coupling connection
of bare fibers in Fiber Testing, experiment, constructions and Single-deck Testing of Fiber Optic
Cable, which is simple structure, reliable and easy control.
Construction Features and Technical Data:
Adopt high precision V-Groove to position optical fiber, make two fibers collimation connection.
• Insertion Loss < 0.25dB(same single-mode optical fiber)--SUN-AL-A
• Insertion Loss < 0.5dB (same single-mode)--SUN-AL-B
Applications and Attentions:
Step 1: Prepare Optical Fiber Fracture Section
a). Firstly, strip coating (about 40mm) of optical fiber by using Bare Fiber Stripper;
b). Put some absolute alcohol on absorbent cotton and then wipe the duct on bare fibers;
c). Cut the fibers by Ruby Knife or Fiber Cutter, left 10mm bare fibers.
Step 2: Settle Optical Fiber
a) Put the prepared bare fiber into V-Groove from the left side, make its fracture surfacein the
middle of the V-Groove;
b) Put down the Platen and hold the fiber;
c) Put another prepared bare fiber into V-Groove after dipped some matching fluid;
d) Put ahead to make the two sections connected tightly;
e) Put down Middle Platen and then the Right Platen.
Step 3: Attentions:
Don't crash or scratch the High-precision V-Groove by any hard object in order to avoid
damage on Groove and then to influence precision of the connection.
Wipe the dust in V-Groove by Alcohol Swabsticks every time before use.
