Product information "FPU II Window _ End Face Stripping Unit"

Fiber Preparation Unit; Chemical-free; Strip Length 2-30 mm; Fiber Coating Diameter 80-1,000 µm; Fiber Type: Polyimide or Carbon Coated

3SAE Technologies’ FPU II Fiber Preparation Unit provides non-contact and chemical-free window or end face stripping of polyimide or carbon coated optical fibers in a small, affordable package.

The FPU II window or end face stripping unit features 3SAE Technologies’ patented “Ring of Fire®” technology which surrounds the fiber with a uniform heat in controlled ionic conditions. This patented low temperature arc plasma process will window or end face strip polyimide and carbon coated fibers quickly and cleanly without use of any mechanical blades, acid or any other chemicals.

The automated process provides consistent stripping results without requiring any special operator skills. The FPU II system is adaptable to your process and can accommodate fiber holders from the most common fusion splicer manufacturers. Strip lengths are adjustable and easily programmable.

Tough polyimide or carbon coatings are difficult to remove without severely degrading the fiber’s mechanical integrity. Other polyimide stripping technologies use mechanical blades or rapid thermal decomposition, which produces low tensile strength while leaving the fiber dirty. A more commonly used method, strong acid/alkali chemistry, is hazardous and produces toxic waste.

Utilizing 3SAE Technologies’ patented Ring of Fire® pulsed plasma etching technology, the FPU II window or end face stripping unit removes polyimide and carbon coatings safely and cleanly. The standard FPU II system accommodates a single fiber up to 1,000 μm diameter, with appropriate fixtures.

The FPU II’s control interface is accessed via the mounted LCD and keypad. This interface provides operational status updates and provides the operator with advanced control of plasma characteristics, temperature and positioning. The operator can quickly and easily recall and store parameters in any one of up to eight available recipe locations. This allows quick translations between fiber stripping programs.

EPC-3000 OEM High-Speed Polarization Controller/Scrambler

3 or 4 Control Channels; 1250-1650 nm, Other; Insertion Loss 0.05 dB; Polarization Dependent Loss <0.06 dB; Fiber Type SM, OtherOZ Optics' EPC-3000 high-speed electrically driven polarization controller provides a simple, efficient means to quickly manipulate the state of polarization within a single mode (SM) fiber. Employing a novel fiber squeezing technique, the device is controlled by either three or four (depending on the model) input voltages to provide endless polarization control and scrambling in a robust, easy to operate package. The EPC-3000 controller's rapid response speed easily handles changes in polarization caused by the external environment and is highly suitable for polarization controlling and scrambling for either averaging PDL, PDG effects, or for making PMD, PDL or DOP measurements. Because the fiber within the device is continuous, all insertion losses, return losses, and PDL effects are limited only by the fiber itself. This makes the EPC-3000 ideal for precise test and measurement applications. The polarization controller is available in either a three or four channel configuration. The three-channel system is ideal for polarization scrambling applications such as for polarization averaging, PDL or PDG measurements. The added redundancy of the four-channel version opens the way to continuous polarization control, without having to occasionally reset the device when a controller reaches its limit. The innovative design of the OZ Optics EPC-3000 high-speed polarization controller provides an integrated module that allows users easily to implement the polarization controller in their systems with both analog and digital inputs.
