Features

Active Fusion Control Technology

1. Active Fusion control by cleave condition

One of main causes of high splice loss is bad cleave end face. The 90S+ fusion splicer analyzes the condition of both L and R cleave end faces and performs optimal fusion control. This new technology improves splice loss significantly and reduces the risk of re-installation.

2. Active Fusion control by fiber brightness

Fusion is easily affected by changes in the environment.
The 90S+ fusion splicer uses real-time fusion parameter control by analyzing the fiber’s brightness intensity during fusion. It contributes to stable, reduced splice loss.

3. Active Fusion control by fiber discrimination

Adequate splice parameters may differ depending on fiber type. The 90S+ fusion splicer automatically applies the optimum splice parameters depending on the ﬁber type.

Active Blade Management Technology

1. Active Blade rotation by motor

The 90S+ fusion splicer and CT50 ﬁber cleaver are enabled with wireless data connectivity. This capability allows automatic cleaver blade rotation when the 90S+ fusion splicer judges the blade is worn. The 90S+ fusion splicer can connect to two CT50s simultaneously.

2. Active Blade life management

The 90S+ fusion splicer displays the remaining blade life and informs the user when a blade height change, position change, or new blade is required.

Enhanced Splice Quality

The below graphs show the number of cleaves on the horizontal line with frequency of large cleave angle, bad cleave shape and no cleave at all. When the frequency of large cleave angle increases, Active Blade Management Technology can detect this increasing ratio point and rotate the blade position automatically. Active Blade Management Technology significantly reduces frequency of large cleave angles occurring but even when it does occur Active Fusion Control Technology can reduce high splice loss by precise fusion control.

The 90S+ fusion splicer can minimize the occurrence of high splice loss and contribute to reduce the risk of re-Installation by using these 2 key technologies together.

Operation Time Reduction

1. Automatic Open-Close Wind protectors

The faster automated features of the 90S+ fusion splicer reduce installation times. With this splicer, an operator can complete the entire splice process from splicing to heating without touching the 90S+ and only moving the fiber.

2. Operation time reduction

The shape of the sheath clamp is optimized for 60mm length protection sleeves. The length from splice point to the edge of the sheath clamp is 30mm. Therefore, it is easy to center the protection sleeve over the splice by using your fingers to reference the splice point.

3. Fiber retention clamp

The fiber retention clamps support the automated operations. When the sheath clamps open automatically after splicing, the fiber retention clamps gently hold the spliced fiber to keep it from flying out. The retention clamps release when the fiber is lifted by the operator.

4. Operation time reduction

These functions enable the 90S+ fusion splicer to reduce operation time by 50% over the previous model.

User Friendly

1. Carrying Case

There are multiple ways to utilize the 90S+ fusion splicer carrying case. The 90S+ fusion splicer is ready to use just by opening the case, but it is also possible to use the 90S+ fusion splicer on top of the carrying case or only with the work tray depending on the work environment.

2. Work Tray

The work tray has many functions. There are two drawers for storage, and the drawers are large enough to store tools or battery packs. Also, the work tray can be divided in two, so it is configurable to fit your work space.

3. Loose Tube Compatibility

The sheath clamp of the 90S+ fusion splicer is compatible with loose tube fiber. The Protrusion part on of the sheath clamp for loose tube fiber engages or retracts by simply changing the switch position with your finger.

4. Tool-less Electrodes and illumination

The 90S+ fusion splicer electrodes come as an “assy” including the fixing screw. You can rotate the screw by hand without tools, enabling easy electrode replacement.

The transparent electrode covers support wider illumination of the v-groove. As the sheath clamp opens on the opposite side of the illumination lamp, the sheath clamp area is illuminated without shadow.
