How To Replace The Electrode Rod

Replacing the electrode is as follows:
γ€€γ€€(1) Before replacing the electrode, the user needs to turn off the power.
γ€€γ€€(2) Loosen the screw fixed on the electrode cover and remove the electrode.
γ€€γ€€(3) Install the new electrode into the electrode groove, install the electrode cover, and slowly tighten the screws.
γ€€γ€€(4) Observe whether the connection between the two electrodes is in the horizontal plane and in the vertical plane at the same time; if not, please re-install the electrodes.
γ€€γ€€(5) Turn on the power, put the prepared fiber into the fusion splicer, and execute 【Discharge Calibration】.
γ€€γ€€(6) After the electrode replacement is completed, execute [Clear the number of discharges].
Electrode rods are very important accessories and consumables for optical fiber fusion splicers, because discharge welding is completed by electrode rods. After reaching a certain life, the electrode rods age and need to be replaced in time to achieve the best welding state.
