Frequently Asked Questions

What is the purpose of the cleaning fluid?
The FCF-3 fluid is nonflammable and evaporates faster than IPA, helping to clean surfaces while dissipating electrostatic charges.

Are the wipes lint-free?
Yes, the included dry wipes are made of polyester to ensure no lint is left on the fiber or connector end-faces.

Can I use this kit on all fusion splicer brands?
Yes, the tools in this kit are universal and designed for general fusion splicer V-groove and fiber connector cleaning.

How do I turn on the headlamp?
The included LED headlamp features a motion sensor allowing you to toggle the light on or off by waving your hand.

What is the difference between the pointed and rounded swabs?
Pointed swabs are ideal for reaching into small V-groove channels, while rounded swabs are suited for broader surfaces or connector faces.
