Double ended design supports multiplex- ing of many sensors on one fiber. Micron Optics'patented micro opto- mechanical technology. The os4300 Non-metallicTemperature Sensor is a family of gages designed to make fiber han- dling easy and sensor installation fast and repeatable. It is based on fiber Bragg grating (FBG) technology. The os4300's body is a sealed, alumina ceramic tube that protects the FBG. Since there are no epoxies holding the fiber to the tube, long term stability is ensured by design. Three packaging options provide for installation that mimics that of conventional thermocou- ples with armored cables and protected connectors, and small sensors that provide the user with both installation flexibility and sub second response. In side by side comparisons with conventional thermocouples, the os4300 is equally accurate, while providing for much faster response, wider operating range, no calibration, and less noise. The os4300 temperature sensor is qualified for use in harsh environments and delivers the many advantages inherent to all FBG based sensors. This sensor can be used alone or in series as part of an FBG sensor array. Installation and cabling for such arrays is much less expensive and cumbersome than comparable electronic gage networks. os4310 - Single Ended & Double Ended Sensors os4330 - Non-metallic Epoxy Mount os4350 - Armored Cable, Flange Mount Connector Protection Fitting With each sensor. Micron Optics provides a Sensor Information Sheet listing the gage factor and calibration coefficients needed to convert wavelength information into engineering units. Micron Optics' ENLIGHT Sensing Software provides a utility to calculate and then record, dis- play, and transmit data for large networks of sensors.
