Fiber optic sensors
If space for sensors is particularly tight or extreme ambient conditions prevail, conventional cubic or cylindrical sensors quickly reach their limits. This is where fiber optic sensors provide an elegant solution. They consist of a two-part structure: flexible fiber optics made of plastic or glass and available in various lengths, and separate amplifiers with a wide range of evaluation options. This design makes it possible to place the amplifier outside the critical environment and install it in suitable locations while the fiber runs to the detection point. This means that even demanding conditions can be mastered reliably.
