Q
Is there a video I can watch on how to properly clean a connector using this CleanTouch product?
A
We do not have a video. However, the correct procedure is just to lightly touch the ferrule tip to the cleaning port and remove. Do not twist or wipe. No solvents are required. It is suggested to use each port only once. If you would like a sample, please contact sales@krelltech.com.

Q
We are looking for a desktop fiber polishing machine capable of polishing form about 300µm up to 2000 µm fibers. Ideally fiber advancement should not rely on gravity. Only 0° angle polish. Are there any demo units available in Germany/Europe?
A
Krell offers several polishing systems for bare fiber applications. Our local representative will be reaching out to you with more information and a quotation.

Q
Do any of these machines have to be calibrated? If so, can you provide information on how often and who calibrates the machines. Thank you
A
For your application and system set-up, there is no need for routine calibration. You can confirm system alignment using the videoscope inspection system and measurement software. If polish angles deviate from your target specifications, the workholder provides the means for in-house adjustment.
