Fitel S175 V2000 Core-Alignment Single-Fiber Fusion Splicer Used

Fitel S175 V2000 Core-Alignment Single-Fiber Fusion Splicer Used

The used Fitel S175 V2000 Fusion Splicer by Furukawa is a core-alignment single-fiber fusion splicer designed for professional fiber optic installation, maintenance, laboratory, production, and repair applications. The S175 Version 2000 combines automatic fiber analysis, core-to-core alignment, environmental sensing, and an integrated color display to support controlled and repeatable optical fiber splicing workflows.

The Fitel S175 V2000 automatically analyzes the installed fiber type and selects the appropriate splice program. The system simultaneously displays the X-axis and Y-axis fiber views with automatic magnification control, allowing the operator to inspect alignment and splice preparation from two directions. Detailed splice information can be accessed through the keypad after the splice and may be downloaded or printed when the required connection, software, or compatible accessory is available.

This is a used fusion splicer. Buyers should review the available product photographs, condition description, included accessories, electrode condition, calibration or service information, and operational test notes before purchase. Accessories listed in the original standard package or specification literature should not be assumed to be included unless they are specifically identified in the AssetRelay listing.

Features and Benefits of the Fitel S175 V2000 Fusion Splicer

The Fitel S175 V2000 provides practical capabilities for technicians, contractors, engineers, service organizations, and laboratory personnel who require a core-alignment splicer for single-fiber fusion splicing.

• Automatic core-to-core alignment: Aligns the fiber cores to support low-loss fusion splicing across compatible fiber types.
• Typical 17-second splice cycle: Supports efficient field, laboratory, repair, and production splicing workflows when operated in high-speed mode.
• Automatic fiber analysis: Analyzes the fiber type and selects the appropriate splice program to simplify setup.
• Simultaneous X-axis and Y-axis viewing: Displays two fiber views with automatic magnification control for alignment and preparation inspection.
• Environmental arc control: Uses air-pressure, temperature, and humidity sensing to support arc-power control at the splice point.
• Integrated color display: Includes a 5-inch color LCD with an anti-reflection coating for viewing fibers, operating messages, and splice information.
• Integrated fiber clamp design: The fiber clamp is incorporated into the windshield, allowing the operator to load the fiber, close the windshield, and begin the splice sequence.
• Built-in AC power unit: The die-cast metal top incorporates the AC power unit and color monitor into the splicer design.
• Splice-data storage: Provides memory for up to 400 splice records for documentation and review.
• Optional remote operation: Supports remote PC operation when used with the required optional software and connection equipment.

Automatic Fiber Alignment and Splice Inspection

The Fitel S175 V2000 is designed to assist the operator throughout fiber preparation, alignment, fusion, and post-splice review. The inspection functions can evaluate cleave angle, fiber-end gap, core eccentricity, offset, tilt, microbending, and bubbles at the splice point. This information can help the operator identify preparation or alignment conditions that may affect splice quality.

The display can present operating messages, the arc counter, clock, heater status, estimated splice loss, and fiber images in X-axis and Y-axis views. The unit can store messages in up to nine languages, although installed language support should be verified on the individual splicer.

The S175 V2000 includes 32 splice-program positions with one automatic splice mode, nine pre-programmed settings, and 28 customizable programs. These program capabilities allow the splicer to support established procedures for compatible fiber types and specialized technical workflows.

Supported Optical Fiber Types

The Fitel S175 V2000 is designed for silica glass-based optical fibers. Supported fiber categories include:

• Single-mode fiber
• Multimode fiber
• Dispersion-shifted fiber
• Erbium-doped fiber
• TrueWave fiber
• LEAF fiber

Fiber compatibility depends on coating diameter, cladding characteristics, cleave length, preparation tools, installed programs, and the physical condition of the splicer. Buyers should verify compatibility with the exact fiber being used before placing the splicer into service.

Typical Applications

The Fitel S175 V2000 Core-Alignment Fusion Splicer is suitable for professional applications such as:

• Fiber optic cable installation and maintenance
• Single-mode and multimode fiber splicing
• Telecom network deployment and repair
• Fiber optic restoration and emergency service work
• Laboratory fiber preparation and prototyping
• Production and manufacturing splicing workflows
• Specialty fiber research and development
• Optical component assembly
• Service-depot and equipment-repair operations
• Replacement or backup fusion splicer requirements

Used Equipment and Buyer Considerations

This Fitel S175 V2000 is offered as used equipment. Fusion splicer performance depends on the condition of the electrodes, fiber clamps, V-grooves, cameras, display, heater, windshield, power supply, interfaces, and alignment system. Buyers should review all available condition information and confirm the operational status of the functions required for the intended application.

Before use, the splicer may require cleaning, electrode inspection or replacement, arc calibration, software setup, program verification, and testing with the intended fiber. Cleaver condition and fiber preparation quality also have a direct effect on actual splice results. Calibration status and recent service history should be verified when those details are important to the buyer’s process or quality requirements.

Buyers should confirm which power cords, clamps, holders, work surfaces, cases, batteries, cleavers, strippers, electrodes, heater accessories, communication cables, software, and manuals are included. Only accessories specifically identified in the AssetRelay listing should be considered part of the sale.
