The new hand-held FITEL S177A incorporates an improved heating design that cuts splice-to-heat time by 40 percent, achieving a 9-second splice time and 37-second heat time. The unit’s T-shaped body design is also 40 percent lighter, weighing only 4.85 pounds including battery. Ideal for fast field use, the S177A reduces the fiber length required for splicing by 30 percent. In addition, fiber magnification power is 608X, marking the industry’s most powerful rating for a core alignment splicer.
FEATURES & APPLICATIONS:
• Faster Splicing
The S177A has a lightening fast splice time of 9 seconds. Power up your production with the S177A!
• Multiple Splicing Programs
The S177A comes with 42 pre-installed splicing programs, providing optical component
manufacturers with programs for specialty and dissimilar fiber splicing combinations (CS980, EDF, NZDSF, etc.).
• Built-in Battery
The S177A comes with an internal battery that automatically charges when the unit is plugged into AC Power - even while splicing!
• Transreflective LCD
The S177A comes equipped with a new transreflective LCD that allows for clear viewingof
the splice even in direct sunlight.
• Large Data Memory Capacity
Data for up to 2,000 splices can be stored in the unit. All data can also be exported to a PC through USB connection to the splicer.
• Machine Self-Check
The S177A is equipped with a self diagnostic feature that can automatically verify the function of all motors, sensors, and cameras.
• Visual Guidance for Maintenance
The S177A is so advanced that it even offers visual step-by-step guidance for common maintenance procedures. Simply enter the maintenance menu and select the procedure you wish to perform and the unit will provide you step-by-step instruction with images.
