Promax AF-002B Replacement electrodes for PROLITE-40B (2 units)

The electrodes are a basic element to be able to make fusion junctions of quality optical fiber.

The electrodes wear with use and have to be cleaned periodically due to the accumulated silica oxide. It is recommended to replace the electrodes after 2500 arc discharges.

Normally the splicer will warn with a message "no arc" when the electrodes are worn

These electrodes are supplied in pairs.

Recommendation Changing Electrodes

To carry out the electrode change you must follow the following instructions:

1. Turn off the instrument and disconnect the power cord.
2. Open the lid. The image shows the distribution of the electrodes.
3. Remove the electrodes by loosening the screw of the electrode holder. Install the new pair of electrodes and tighten the screw alternatively while pushing the isolated part of the electrode.
4. Connect the power cable, turn on by pressing the power button and stabilize the electrodes.
