Draka’s High Temperature Resistant Acrylate coated Single-Mode Fiber provides optimum transmission performance in both the 1310 nm and 1550 nm wavelength operating ranges. In spite of their high intrinsic strength, optical fibers need coatings to ensure the protection and the maintenance of such strength throughout their lifetime, when exposed to all kinds of stresses which can cause optical fiber fatigue.
High temperature is one such cause, which can often be encountered in harsh environments. The Acrylate coating used by Draka protects the optical fiber during installation and operation in applications exposed to high temperatures, up to 150°C. The Acrylate coated optical fiber can be used in all cable constructions designed for high temperature environments, including loose tube, metal tube and central tube designs.
Features:
• High temperature resistant Acrylate coating
• Low sensitivity to ionizing radiation, especially Useful for application of fibers in harsh when combined with a PCVD made fiber core environments in presence of both elevated section
• Fully compatible with other G.652 fibers in terms of transmission, connection and installation tools
• Excellent high temperature resistant Acrylate coating manufacturing process
Benefits:
• Supports application in environments with both constant high temperature (up to 150°C) and fluctuating temperature
• Useful for application of fibers in harsh environments in presence of both elevated temperature and ionizing radiation
• Open standards for multi-sourcing worldwide
• Superior geometry, uniformity and homogeneity
