T100 Fiber Bragg Grating Strain Sensor Array - Data Sheet

The T100 is a Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) Array which is available in a wide range of optical specifications. Naturally packaged directly in bare fiber, these daisy-chained FBG sensors are ultra-small and are designed for use in distributed, quasi-distributed, and multi-sensing-point applications with the added requirement of minimal intrusion. The T100 optical sensor consists 1 to 99 Fiber Bragg Grating sensing elements embedded in single-mode acylate, polyimide, gold, or other types of coated fiber. The sensor yields excellent wavelength to temperature and wavelength to strain linearity. Its sub-millisecond response time also makes it useful for process feedback and control in laboratory and commercial applications. The T100 FBG Array is designed to make handling and installation fast, easy, and intuitive. It delivers the many advantages inherent to all FBG based sensors. Equally sensitive to most traditional strain and temperature sensors but immune to EMI. The FBG specifications listed herein represent the most popular configuration. Many optical and physical variations are available.
