ntt CLETOP-S Series User manual

1. Introduction
Thank you for using our optical fiber connector cleaner CLETOP-S. The conventional method of cleaning optical plug
ferrule endfaces depends upon worker-skill and generally requires use of alcohol and wiping with tissue or freon gas.
However, NTT-AT’s connector cleaner CLETOP-S provides thorough cleaning of the ferrule endface by using a dry
alcohol-free cloth and all operators can consistently achieve high quality cleaning without alcohol or other solvents.
The CLETOP-S series has excellent anti-static properties to avoid reattachment of dust to the ferrule after
cleaning and is available for static sensitive applications.
The CLETOP (Stick-type) orthe NEOCLEAN(Pen-type)is also available for cleaning the ferrule end-face located
in such difficult spots as the inside of the adaptor.
Please use this product in a proper way based upon this instruction manual.

3. How to clean the connector
①Set the plug on the tape surface and rotate it from side to side.
(2) While pressing the lever and keeping your thumb depressed on it, press the optical plug ferrule endface against the
cleaning tape surface and move it slowly in arrow’s direction.
(1) The lever winds the cleaning tape equipped inside the cassette and simultaneously opens the shutter.
NOTE 1:
Please push the white marked part of
the lever as shown in a circle.
If you strongly push other partthan

NOTE 2: Contamination may leave behind if pressure to the plug is insufficient. Apply sufficient pressure to the plug to the
extent that the tape is not twisted.
NOTE 3:
Press the plug against the tape vertically and move it straight. If the plug is pressed and moved aslant,
the tape may be twisted.
NOTE 4: Cleaning performance may change depending upon environment and contamination types.
②Move the plug while pressing it against the tape surface. Apply sufficient pressure(e.g. approx. 600gf / 0.6N
for SC/FC connector and 250gf / 0.25N for LC/MU connector)to ensure ferrule a little deepressed.
Do NOT use the same position for cleaning.
