HOW TO IMPROVE TC-400 FUSION SPLICER SPLICING QUALITY

During the usage of the fusion splicer,follow some tips can maximize a good splicing quality, even to zero splicing loss.
Here list some important tips:
. Preparatory work before splicing: Maintenance
Clean the dust that falls into the V-groove (refering to Daily Cleaning section)
Enter into Navigation interfaces, operate brightness calibration and ARC calibration.
. Clean the stripped fiber with dustless cloth dipped by alcohol carefully and keep the endface of the fiber smooth. Refer to the following picture:

. Choose the corresponding standard splice mode according to the fiber type. E.g., if the fiber type is SM, choose SM G652 splice mode;

. Clean the fusion splicer 's V-groove every 500 times discharging and splicing;
