VELOCE 100 Fiber Optic Temperature Monitor
Key Features
Temperature resolution down to 0.025°C 1 to 8 simultaneous channels Voltage output 200 KHz sampling rate Upgradeable number of channels
Applications
EED applications HERO Testing
The VELOCE 100 Fiber Optic Temperature Monitor is an upgradeable, multi-channel, fi ber optic signal conditioner especially designed for electromagnetic interference (EMI) characterization on electronic explosive devices (EEDs). It provides simultaneous reading of a large number of measuring points with fast sampling rates.
Point measurement applications Airbag igniters EMI compatibility of sensitive parts
The VELOCE 100 is specifi cally designed to meet the requirements needed for characterizing the EMI susceptibility of most bridge wire type EEDs.The VELOCE 100 Fiber Optic Temperature Monitor is designed to be used in con-junction with the FOT-HERO fi ber optic temperature sensor. The miniature probe size facilitates the positioning of the probe over the center position of the bridge wire while its low thermal mass minimizes the heat sink effect, allowing a tem-
perature resolution down to 0.025°C at a sampling rate of 200 KHz.Thanks to its unique patented technology, the VELOCE 100 Fiber Optic Temper-ature Monitor is a relative measurement instrument that provides highly accurate and reliable measurements. The system’s linear response is so reliable that it allows sensor calibration with only one or two known current reference points.The VELOCE 100 Fiber Optic Temperature Monitor comes in a 19-inch industrial rack chassis that incorporates guide rails, connectors and a power supply. The chassis can accommodate from one to eight sliding independent optical modules. All optical input channels are easily accessible on the modules’ front panels. The system scans all the channels simultaneously at a 200 KHz sampling rate. Each module has its own BNC ±5 volts analog output. Temperature changes, expressed in volts accordingly to user’s own scale factor entry, are then collected by optional external analog acquisition systems. Each module can be independently con-
trolled, upgraded, and optimized through its own RS-232 communication port or, even more easily, thanks to its accompanying software, FISOCommander BUS/
VELOCE Edition.
