With the continuous development of communication technology, fiber optic communication has become the mainstream in the field of communication today. Fiber Blowing Solution, as a new type of fiber optic cabling, have advantages such as simple construction, high speed, and low cost, and are widely used in the construction of communication networks in cities, rural areas, and enterprises.
FCST has been providing Fiber Blowing Solution to customers since 2011, offering comprehensive solutions to over 1000 clients. Accumulating rich experience, the following content addresses common problems and solutions in air-blowing installation, hoping to be helpful to everyone.
Common Problems | Solutions |
The outer protective duct is blocked. | 1. Clean the outer protective pipe: such as by blowing sponge balls into the pipe to remove accumulated water and dust blocking the pipe; investigate the location of any obstructions to the outer protective pipe and remove them. |
The microduct cannot be blown. | 1. Check if the air blowing equipment is operating normally.
2. Check if the air blowing accessories of the microduct air blowing machine meet the requirements for the outer diameter of the outer protective duct and the microduct, as well as the number of air blowing microducts. |
Insufficient micro-duct air blowing distance. | 1. Check if the outer protective duct is pre-lubricated.
2. Check if the outer protective duct is damaged.
3. Check if the outer protective duct is clear and clean.
4. Check if the microduct is properly sealed.
5. Check if the microduct size matches the outer protective duct.
6. Check if the air blowing location is suitable.
7. Check if the air blowing mode is correct. |
Slow micro-duct air blowing speed. | 1. Check if the outer protective duct is pre-lubricated.
2. Check if the microduct is properly sealed.
3. Check if the microduct size matches the outer protective duct. |
microducts damaged during installation. | 1. Check if the microduct laying path is normal.
2. Check if the working pressure of the air blowing equipment is normal.
3. Check if the microduct maintains internal air pressure filling during the air blowing process.
4. Check if the equipment thrust exceeds the designed microduct tensile load. |
Microcables cannot be blown away. | 1. Check if the air blowing equipment is operating normally.
2. Check if the air blowing accessories of the micro-duct air blowing machine meet the requirements for air blowing micro-cables. |
Insufficient air blowing distance for microcables. | 1. Check if the microduct has undergone a continuity check and treatment.
2. Check if the microduct is properly sealed.
3. Check if the microcable size matches the microduct.
4. Check if the microcable air blowing location is suitable.
5. Check if the microcable air blowing mode is correct. |
Slow air blowing speed of micro-cable. | 1. Check if the microduct is properly sealed.
2. Check if the microcable size matches the microduct.
3. Check if the air blowing device is working properly.
4. Check if the end of the microcable is sealed. |
Damage during micro-cable laying. | 1. Check if the micro-cable laying path is normal.
2. Check if the working pressure of the air blowing equipment is normal.
3. Check if the equipment thrust exceeds the designed tensile load of the micro-duct. |
Micro-cable signal transmission failure. | 1. Check if the microcable was inspected before laying.
2. Check for damage during microcable laying.
3. Check if the bending radius of the microcable is normal during construction.
4. Check the protection of microcable splices, branching points, and fiber optic structures. |
