Optical Strain Gage | os3100
Optical Strain Gage | os3155
Non-metallic Optical Strain Gage | os3200
The os3100 is a spot-welded or epoxy-mounted optical strain gage based on fiber Bragg grating (FBG) technology.
The os3100 Optical Strain Gage is designed to make fiber handling easy and sensor installation fast and repeatable. Its stainless steel carrier holds the FBG in tension and protects the fiber during installation. Since there are no epoxies holding the fiber to the carrier, long term stability is ensured by design. For temperature compensation, the os3100 may be connected in series with an os4100, FBG Temperature Compensation Gage or an os4350, FBG Temperature Sensors.
The os3155 is a rugged optical strain gage with integrated temperature compensation based on fiber Bragg grating (FBG) technology
The os3200 is based on fiber Bragg grating (FBG) technology. It has a self adhesive backing that holds the sensor body in place and protects the FBG while epoxy is injected. The epoxy encapsulates the FBG and bonds it to a structure’s surface. Installation time is just a few minutes. Measurements can be taken after the epoxy cures in 24 hours at room temperature.
