ABSTRACT:
An arrangement for measuring the static lives of glass optical fibers. The arrangement comprises a number of holders. In each holder a rod with a fiber wound on it can be arranged. The holder surrounds each rod on three sides. Upon rupture of a fiber the broken ends strike the enclosure and eject the rod from its holder. Means are provided for recording the instants of insertion and ejection of each rod in and from a holder.
