Scope
This detail specification defines fiber optic fusion splicers acceptable for the installation and repair of a wide range of optical fibers and cables with virtually no insertion loss in hazardous environments (potentially flammable or explosive atmospheres, Type I), particularly aerospace applications. The requirements for acquiring the splicer described herein shall consist of this specification and the latest issue of AS6479.
Rationale
Type I fusion splicers are designed for hazardous environments specifically including potentially flammable or explosive atmospheres.

Issuing Committee
AS-3 Fiber Optics and Applied Photonics Committee
The SAE AS-3 Fiber Optics and Applied Photonics committee addresses all facets of fiber optics systems and applied photonics¿design, maintenance, and in-service experience. It provides definition and support, and assures standardized components and systems approaches for fiber optic data buses. This includes sensors, architecture, and requirements for advanced fiber and electro optic technologies. The group is comprised of four subcommittees dedicated to creating, preparing, and maintaining all relevant specifications, standards, and requirements for fiber optics and applied photonics systems. These subcommittees include:
AS-3A Fiber Optic Applications AS-3B Fiber Optic Supportability AS-3C Fiber Optic Components AS-3D Fiber Optic Process Definition Participants in the SAE AS-3 committee include OEMs, suppliers, aircraft fiber optics and applied photonics systems companies, consulting firms, government and others across the aerospace and defense industries.Reference

* Redlines comparisons are available for those standards listed in the Revision History that contain a radio button. A redline comparison of the current version against a revision is accomplished by selecting the radio button next to the standard and then selecting 'compare'. At this time, Redline versions only exist for some AMS standards. SAE will continue to add redline versioning with ongoing updates to SAE MOBILUS.
