ClearCurve Mid-Temperature SM Fibers
Product information "ClearCurve Mid-Temperature SM Fibers"
1310, 1550 nm; Mode Field Dia. 8.6, 9.65 µm; Cladding Dia. 125 µm; Acrylate Coating; Optional Hermetic Layer; -60 to +180 °C
Equipped with mid-temperature acrylate-based coatings, the Corning® ClearCurve® series of single mode (SM) bend insensitive optical fibers now includes higher temperature capability.
For use at temperatures up to +180 °C and beyond, these fibers deliver the best macro bend performance in the industry with ease of use and handling – benefiting sensing systems operating in harsh environments.
The ClearCurve single mode fiber series includes the SMBI-5-XMT fiber with mid-temperature acrylate coating as well as the SMBIH-5-XMT fiber with mid-temperature acrylate coating and an additional hermetic layer. For mid-temperature multi mode fibers please refer to Corning’s ClearCurve multi mode fiber series.
