IEC-60794-1-2-E10 Optical fiber cable kink tester 

Application

Optical Fiber Cable Kink Testing Machine is used to determine the loop diameter at the onset of the kinking of an optical fiber cable in accordance with IEC-60794-1-2-E10.

Method

The sample length shall be sufficient to carry out the specified test. The diameter of the loop shall be reduced to the onset of kinking by pulling slowly on the two ends. The forces at the bottom of the loop shall be applied in one plane. Unless otherwise specified, the conditions for testing shall be in accordance with standard atmospheric conditions. Concluding no kink should occur.
