Used with FiberKleen™ towelettes
Description
A cleaner for fiber optic termination, splicing, and maintaining fusion splicing units.
Polywater® AquaKleen™ fiber cleaner utilizes innovative water-based technology. Its excellent wetting ability reaches precision parts to lift dust, buffer gel, lint, fingerprints, and oils. AquaKleen dissipates static to remove surface charges so that the surface is less likely to be re-contaminated. Conveniently packaged in a small dropper or spray bottle, AquaKleen works well with lint-free Polywater® FiberKleen™ towelettes—making cleaning easier and more effective.
Polywater® AquaKleen™ Fiber Cleaner
- Made with pure deionized water leaving no residue after evaporation to affect light transmission
- Water-based alternative to alcohol and solvents
- Non-toxic, safe for confined areas
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.
