Unterminated Plastic Fiber Cutting Procedure
Unterminated plastic fibers are designed to be cut by the user to the length required
for the application. To facilitate cutting, a Banner model PFC-1 cutting device is
supplied with the fiber. Cut the fiber as follows:
1) Locate the “control end” of the fiber (the unfinished end). Determine the length of
2) Double-check the fiber length, and close the cutter until the fiber is cut. Using a
3) Gently wipe the cut ends of the fiber with a clean, dry cloth to remove any
Plastic Fiber Installation
A) Unlock the fiber gripper as shown in Figure 2. If 0.25 mm or 0.5 mm core fibers are
B) Gently insert the prepared plastic fiber ends into the ports, as far as they will go.
C) Slide the fiber gripper back to lock, as shown in Figure 2.
Glass Fiber Installation
A) Install the O-ring (supplied with the fiber) on each end, as shown in the drawing.
B) While pressing the fiber ends firmly into the portson the front of the sensor, slide the
fiber required for the application. If using a bifurcated fiber, separate the two halves
of the fiber at least 2" beyond the fiber cutting location. Lift the top (blade) of the
cutter to open the cutting ports. Insert one of the control ends through one of the
cutting ports on the PFC-1 cutter so that the excess fiber protrudes from the back of
the cutter.
different cutting port, cut the second control end to the required length. To ensure a
clean cut each time, do not use a cutting port more than once.
contamination. Do not use solvents or abrasives on any exposed optical fiber.
being used, slide the small fiber adapters onto the fibers, flush with the fiber ends.
