Fiber-optic temperature measurement covers -200° to 300° C, includes USB, RS232 and SPI interfaces
Debuting at Sensors Expo (June 28-29, 2017), Micronor and Optocon AG have collaborated to create the FOTEMP1-OEM-MNT; a low cost, small form factor, single channel signal conditioner that seamlessly integrates Fiber Optic Temperature Sensing into any industrial control system, medical instrumentation or other OEM design. The compact FOTEMP1-OEM-MNT controller works with all TS series fiber optic temperature sensors, a […]
Fiber optic displacement sensor has measurement accuracy in the micron range
OMRON Corporation, Kyoto City, will introduce on April 1 the new confocal fiber displacement sensor ZW-7000 Series. Incorporating the new white light confocal principle(*2) of measurement, the ZW-7000 Series is a non-contact-type displacement sensor that can continuously measure the height of objects with various materials and shapes with an accuracy of microns while moving the […]
New line of fiber optic sensors
Carlo Gavazzi is pleased to announce a new line of Fiber Optic Sensors, including the FA1 Fiber Optic Amplifier, and the FUT and FUR Fiber Optic Cables. The compact, intuitive, and flexible design of the FA1 Fiber Optic Amplifier is ideal for a wide variety of applications. An adjustable signal level, selectable response time, multiple […]
Fiber-Optic Sensor Amplifier Boasts Several Features
With one of nearly 500 E32-series sensing heads as its partner, Omron Automation and Safety’s E3X-HD fiber-optic sensor amplifier can address many space-confined sensing applications. The amplifier allows ultra-stable presence/absence and inspection. Its one-button smart tuning simplifies sensor threshold and light intensity adjustments. Other capabilities include the amplifier’s ability to automatically compensate for LED-aged deterioration, […]
Fiber Optic Sensing Improves Medical Measurements and More
Unlike strain gages, thermocouples, liquid level and other sensors that only measure critical points, distributed fiber optic sensing (FOS) can provide a profile between the critical points. Sensuron’s FOS systems take advantage of this capability in 200 µm diameter, 3-dimensional positioning, pressure and temperature sensors. In a surgical instrument, a thin, flexible, high-density fiber optic […]
