The Gator™ from Krell Technologies is a compact, ergonomic cleaning tool designed to safely and effectively remove dirt, dust, and debris from photonic components—including fiber optic connectors, ferrules, bare fibers, photonic integrated circuits (PICs), and waveguides.

Engineered for versatility, Gator™ supports both dry and wet cleaning methods. Its reusable substrate allows for dozens of cleaning cycles before disposal, making it ideal for field technicians, production environments, and cleanroom applications.

Whether preparing fibers for fusion splicing, connector termination, bare fiber polishing, or final inspection, Gator™ provides reliable cleaning for in-process and post-process workflows.
