Simotomo TYPE-81C Direct Core Monitoring Fusion Splicer
Type81c Fiber Splicer, Faster 6sec. splice in Quick Mode, Reduced 14sec. heat shrink time, dual heat oven for fast splicing
The TYPE-81C’s Fiber Splicer with advanced electronic design, it with dual built-in ovens for simultaneous task, makes the faster fusion splicer available on the market by reducing the bottleneck of “heater wait time”. With an individual heater cycle time of only Approx.28 seconds (60mm Fiber protection sleeves) and a splice cycle of only Approx.7 seconds (Quick mode), the TYPE-81C improves splicing efficiency and productivity dramatically, thereby reducing labor time and costs while increasing project and customer service turn-up.
Designed for portability, precision splicing, reliability, and speed — without foregoing affordability― the TYPE-81C splicer is ideal for splicing applications in the central office or head end, the feeder portion of the FTTx network where speed in high fiber application is crucial, and at terminals leading to the final drop to premises or home. For added convenience and functionality, the TYPE-81C design includes a multi- position monitor that automatically change its view to accommodate front-to-back and back-to-front viewing for a vast array of splicing applications. The splicer is RoHS compliant.
