Micron Optics, Inc. Announces
Advances in the sm130 Optical Sensing Interrogator
Atlanta, Georgia, March 5, 2008 – Micron Optics,
Inc. announces exciting advances in the sm130,
Micron Optics’ dynamic Optical Sensing Interrogator.
The sm130, currently deployed in hundreds of applications
around the world, is now available with the choice of either
two times the sensor capacity
or two times the speed. The increase in scanning range to
over 160 nm now means more sensors per channel; up to 640
sensors on four fibers. The new maximum continuous sampling
rate of 2 kHz enables characterization of high frequency
vibrations in complex structures. In addition, for demanding
applications, multiple sm130s can be synched to obtain real-time
simultaneous measurements of 1000s of sensors.
"This represents an important evolution of a widely-used
interrogator platform," says Jeff Miller, President
and CEO of Micron Optics. "As our core technology improves,
so do the capabilities of our instruments. No one can match
our combination of speed, repeatability, and sensor capacity”.
The sm130 already allows full spectrum observation of optical
characteristics and the measurement of distances between
sensors. The versatility and flexibility of the sm130 in
conjunction with the advantages of fiber optic sensors makes
it perfect for applications ranging from structural health
monitoring to oil & gas applications to transportation
monitoring.
