Description

The os300-700 FBG Strain/Displacement Sensor is a transducer that transforms a static or dynamic distance variation into a change in reflected wavelength of a pre-stressed Fiber Bragg Grating that can be precisely measured with Micron Optics' sensing instruments.

os300-700 sensors are available in single-ended, double-ended and chained configurations. It is possible to connect up to 5 full-range sensors (4 with temperature compensation).

Applications

Long-term monitoring, risk and damage assessment of:

• Civil Structures/Civionics (bridges, dams, tunnels, buildings)
  

• Energy (wind turbines, pipelines, nuclear reactors)
  

• Aerospace Vehicles (composite structures, wind tunnels, dynamic tests)
  

• Oil & Gas (platform structural health monitoring)
  

• Marine Vessels (hull, mast, rudder, submarine pressure tests)
  

• Transportation (railways, roadways)
