Miniature fusion splicer ATEX-certified for use in potentially explosive atmospheres.
The fully-automatic miniature modular fusion splicer creates low-loss and highly stable splices in any optical fiber from 5.8/125 µm single mode up to 200/230 µm multi-mode. Its explosion-proofing system enables the splicer to operate safely in any hazardous atmosphere, including fueled aircraft. The splicer is so small it can be used one-handed and so stable it can operate properly in any orientation, from level to sideways to upside-down. It is rugged enough to satisfy MIL-PRF-28800F requirements, including vibration, mechanical shock, thermal cycling, high humidity, salt spray, sand-and-dust, and shock/drop. Its electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) renders it both immune to ambient EMI and shielded against emissions which might interfere with other nearby equipment.
