CLEANBLAST SYSTEM OVERVIEW
The patented JDSU CleanBlast fiber end face cleaning
systems provide a fast, effective, and cost-efficient
solution for removing dirt and debris from connectors
in most common applications. CleanBlast is a non-
contact system that uses a highly filtered stream
of pressurized gas with a vacuum circuit to create
a high flow rate jet across the surface of the fiber.
A cleaning solvent is injected into the airflow, and
the contamination from the end face along with
the solvent are then removed through the retrieval
circuit. The precise, highly efficient non-contact air-
solvent-air stream blasts and removes loose debris
with nearly 100-percent effectiveness.
CONTAMINATION MUST BE CLEANED from the end
face prior to mating in order to optimize the efficiency
of an optical signal or interconnect.
CleanBlast eliminates the user sensitivity and
inconsistencies experienced with other cleaning tools
by removing loose debris at the push of a button. With
more than 8,000 cleaning cycles between refills, this
automated system cleans faster, more effectively, and
is less cost-per-clean than conventional methods.
