The FITEL S185EVROF combines the cutting-edge features of ROF (Ring of Fire) and EDV (End View) into a single, unprecedented device. The End View System enhances user control, by offering detailed images of fiber cross-sections, making it particularly effective for intricate internal structures such as multi-core and hollow-core fibers.
The proven three-electrode arc discharge system, known for achieving low loss on multi-core fibers, is now reinforced by allowing end-users to view fiber cross-sections before splicing. HCF and MCF are especially sensitive fibers, with excessive heat potentially compromising their structure. The three-electrode discharge ensures uniform heating, while our STA2 D (Sequential Triangular Asymmetric Arc Discharging) system effectively heats the delicate structure of hollow-core fibers, preserving the internal microstructure.
Integrating these three systems results in precision splicing performance and industry-leading low loss.
The S185EDV employs an End View system designed for splicing fiber with complicated internal structure such as Hollow Core, PCF and more. These fibers can be very difficult to align using a traditional Side View splicer.
Viewing the cross sections images of the fibers gives more detail about the internal structure providing more control to the user for precise splicing results.
Our Composite Image Technology overlays both End View fiber images into one picture, allowing the user to verify the alignment and fine tune to their exact requirements. The S185EDV can also be used to splice in traditional Side- View mode. All these features make the S185EDV a versatile, portable and precise splicing solution.
