The DSS™ uses swept-wavelength interferometry to simultaneously interrogate thousands of sensors on a single fiber Thèse sensors consist of discrète Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) point sensors which can each reflect the same nominal wavelength. As such. the sensors can be fabricated on the draw tower, eliminating the need for individual grating fabrication* rompefature (*C) DISTRIBUTED SENSING SYSTEM (Model DSS™ 4300) MEASUREMENT PERFORMANCE HIGHLIGHTS ■ ± 1 pStrain résolution ■ 10.1 C résolution ■ 1 cm spatial resolution up to 70 meters ■ Measure thousands of sensors in a single fiber APPLICATIONS ■ Structural health monitoring for naval, aerospace and civil structures ■ Conformai déformation and shape sensing ■ Composite damage assessment ■ Température profile characterization ■ Industrial chemical process monitoring ■ Condition-based maintenance r«me (mim Sensors Luna's revolutionary Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) manufactuiing process allows users a first-of-it< kind benefit of measur ing with cost effective sensors. The Luna DSS™ 4300 provides highly distributed fiber sensing for température and strain while maintaining the strength and structural integrity of the fiber. wwwJunatechnologies.com
