Fiber Optic Cleaning Kit

Correctly cleaning a fiber optic connection is the first step to assure a low loss fiber optic signal anywhere along the network to your customer's location. The ITW Chemtronics Combination Cleaning Process overcomes the problems encountered in both the Wet cleaning process and the Dry Cleaning technique.

The "wet to dry" Combination Cleaning Process is a patented innovation that cleans and automatically dries all soil types from end faces most - typically, the first time. This Combination Cleaning Procedure or CCP utilizes a proprietary solvent that effectively removes all commonly encountered soils. The combination of effective products and application techniques make the CCP ideal for both Outside Plant and OEM cleaning applications.

Fiber Optic Cleaning

Improper cleaning is the top cause for network failures. The tolerance to dirt or contamination on the ends of the ferrules of a connector is near zero. Network operators claim that 15-50% of all network problems can be traced to dirty connectors causing connection problems. 

Mitigate the risk of fiber optic contamination with fiber optic cleaners, fiber cleaning pens, and cleaning wipes. These handy fiber cleaners can remove contaminants like: dust, dirt, oils, film residue, and solvent coating.

Airborne dirt particles are about the size of the core of SM fiber and are usually silica based - they may scratch PC connectors if not removed! Patch panels have mating adapters that can become contaminated if left open to the air or scrape off foreign particles under repeated usage. We recommend you always keep dust caps on connectors, bulkhead splices, patch panels or anything else that is going to have a connection made with it.
