The IFOS I*Sense® 48K-MS-HC offers a cost effective,
multi-switch, high FBG count, high-speed, lightweight and
small footprint solution for monitoring up to 60 Fiber
Bragg Grating (FBG) sensors per node
Key features and benefits of the IFOS I*Sense™ 48k-MS-HC are:
- Highly scalable and expandable to over 1,000 FBGs
- Multi-optical band auto-switching with S, C, L, U bands
- Fast inter-fiber FBG array auto-switching capabilities
- Full GUI control for connecting any one source to any one
- fiber in an array of FBGs at very high speeds
- Directly measures and plots temperature-compensated
- static and dynamic strain, vibration and acoustics
- High speed of up to 6 kHz for every FBG per fiber
- High resolution, accuracy, and dynamic range
- Automatic temperature compensation
- Remote monitoring system for up to 100 km
- Solid state, no moving parts
- Compact, lightweight, low power consumption
- Operates in harsh and demanding environments
- Long life and high reliability
- Integrated PC for single box intelligent monitoring system
- Customizable decision aid algorithms and displays
- Fiber or wireless backhaul transmission capability
The I*Sense® 48k-MS-HC provides very high FBG counts in a
highly scalable, expandable system with real-time data display
and storage for all its channels with every FBG seeing the full
bandwidth, offering high precision, remote monitoring, long life,
large dynamic range, and high measurement range with
multiple optical bands available for expansion. Different
sensing elements can be deployed on a single optical fiber
enabling a mix of strain, temperature and derivative
measurements for e.g. displacement, tilt, pressure, chemical
and biochemical measurements, to best meet varying
customer needs at a series of discrete locations. Customized
sensors are available upon request.
