FID-31R
Fibre identifier
The FID-31R boasts quick, accurate results and an ergonomic design.
Precision identification.
Optimising the performance of your network with the FID-31R.
The FID-31R is the successor to the FID-25R and boasts increased functionality thanks to the inclusion of an optical power meter. As part of Fujikura’s family of fibre identifiers, the FID-31R is used for identifying the light power presence in optical fibres, and includes three detecting functions: TONE, TRAFFIC, and ONU.
Operation is via a trigger clamp which macro-bends the fibre in order to leak light, which is then detected by two photo sensors. The FID-31R can detect the presence of several kinds of light signal and indicate signal directions.
The trigger lock function ensures the fibre is clamped with constant pressure, while the 2.4″ colour LCD touch panel, equipped with a backlight function, allows the user to view the estimated optical power in the fibre and select the desired wavelength of 1310nm, 1490nm, or 1550nm. Identification of modulated tones at 270Hz, 1kHz and 2kHz is provided, along with continuous wave and ONU signals. Users are also able to select from three detection sensitivity modes: normal, fast and fine.
Other features of the battery-operated FID-31R include robust body design, easy-to-use fibre clamp, status indicator and adjustable settings for result retaining, buzzer volume, backlight brightness, auto dimming and auto power off.
This fibre identifiers can be used for UV-coated fibre, 0.9mm diameter tight buffered fibre, fibre cord up to 3mm in diameter, and fibre ribbon with up to 12 fibres, making it a versatile accessory for any user.
High sensitivity
The FID-31R series is equipped with world-class signal detection sensitivity and it can detect optical power on not only standard fibre but also bend-insensitive fibre and ITU-T G.657 fibres.
Foreign light detection
When the 31R detects a foreign light source, the FID monitors external light alarm actives and shows both arrows (left and right) simultaneously, which reduces operator error when attempting to detect the traffic or tone signals.
Functional, ergonomic design
The FID-30R’s shape and design means that the operator can easily maintain proper pressure for bending the fibre being tested. The long, slim head makes it possible to access narrow spaces with the FID-31R and the location of the LCD monitor is in an easy to read position for observing results.
Trigger lock
The trigger lock function eliminates the need to continually apply pressure to the trigger when testing a fibre. This prevents the operator from breaking the fibre, and frees them to perform other tasks while measuring, if needed.
ONU detection
FID-31R is capable of detecting ONU signals. Note: Not all ONUs can be detected. Contact Fujikura for more details.
