Description
The new and improved FITEL S251A Fiber Optic Stripper is designed for efficient stripping of both single fibers and fiber ribbons. Thanks to its built-in battery, it operates wirelessly, offering great portability and convenience, perfect for fieldwork and production environments. Supporting 200–400 μm fibres, the S251A achieves the demanding requirements of Rollable Ribbon installations currently being driven by data centres and their increasing need for density and efficiency.
At 200 micron, Rollable Ribbon is thinner than the conventional ribbon fiber. To remove this coating with a thermal stripper adequately requires a very high degree of accuracy in the peeling mechanism. In order to address to this issue, the S251A has been updated along with our next generation of fusion splicers to support the adaption of 200 μm Rollable Ribbon fibre, as well as stripping for both conventional ribbon fiber and single fibre types.
