Abstract
A device for degreasing pieces such as optical fibers of a stripped cable comprises a tank containing a liquid solvent in which the pieces are immersed, a pressurized gas container having a gas outlet nozzle, a receptacle for holding the container vertical with the nozzle at the bottom, and a diffuser for gas passing from the nozzle into the liquid solvent below the pieces. The gas diffused into the solvent is cold and causes turbulence of the solvent. The grease is detached from the pieces and falls into a cavity.
