The FBG-Scan 700 or 800 is a dynamic, high accuracy measurement device for Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) sensors. The system can measure up to 40 FBG sensors using one channel with two inputs. Both input channels are simultaneously monitored using an optical coupler at a scan rate up to 2000Hz.
The sampling is done using the internal clock or can be controlled by an external trigger signal to synchronize the measurements with other devices.
The system is delivered together with the ‘IllumiSense Wave’ software which exists of an user friendly user interface to read out the spectral information from a laptop over USB 2.0 and calculate the peak wavelengths real time. Furthermore, the system is also compatible with the ‘ILLumiSense Strain’ software (optional) which can be used to convert the wavelength data into temperature compensated strain data.
