  • Publication number: 20150177461
    Abstract: An explosion proof optical fiber splicer system includes a gasket sealed arc chamber fed with purging inert gas to exclude ambient air which may be contaminated with explosive hazardous gases or particles. Prepared bare fiber ends are placed within the chamber on a pedestal held by fiber clamps. An arc between electrodes perpendicular to the fiber line is made possible only when adequate inert gas is present as controlled by a control monitor. The control monitor receives information from sensors within the arc chamber regarding oxygen content, inert gas pressure, and flow volume. The explosion proof optical fiber splicer system is compact and can be used in contained narrow spaces without need for disassembly of optical connections.
