When cleaning the alignment grooves (v-grooves) on a fusion splicer many technicians will use an alcohol presaturated wipe to remove the contamination. If the residual contamination is not removed, or if the wipe introduces more particles, the fibre will be misaligned. Use of cotton swabs to clean the v-grooves will also generate particles, negatively impacting the alignment of the fibre.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWhile cleaning the sides of a ferrule is not a common procedure, cases exist where contaminants become trapped on the side of the ferrule, and decrease the transmission through the connector. These contaminants can also migrate between the connectors, and decrease transmission unless removed. Excess solvent also requires the ferrule be cleaned prior to reassembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe unique geometry as well as its exceptionally clean construction, provides a dual use for the 38540. The swab can be used dry for cleaning a fusion splice v-groove, lightly moistened on one side and then reversed to dry for ferrule cleaning applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFlattest, thinnest swab available; ideal for small precision surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWill not leave residue; no adhesives or binders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWicking action quickly pulls solvent from surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCan be used with Electro-Wash® Precision Cleaners and the CCp™ on hard-to-remove soils\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAvailable in bulk packaging or durable, field-ready, transparent tubes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e50 swabs per tube\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cu data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eApplications:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eV-groove \u0026amp; ferrule cleaning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Chemtronics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42050482569416,"sku":"CM-38542F","price":15.53,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0615\/8463\/8152\/products\/CM-38542F_f79fdb7f-58b6-4adb-bb55-17170d066634.jpg?v=1661521068","url":"https:\/\/nc-telecoms-centre.myshopify.com\/products\/chemtronics-v-groove-and-ferrule-cleaning-swabs-pack-50","provider":"Telecoms Centre","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
