MuST FBG Temperature Sensor
FBG TEMPERATURE SENSOR ROBUST AND EASY TO INSTALL
For surface mounting or embedding in concrete and mortars. Ideal for long-term temperature monitoring. Up to 12 sensors per chain.
MuST FBG temperature sensors are suitable for a large range of applications. These sensors are fiber optic versions of the conventional electrical and vibrating wire temperature sensors but completely passive, offering inherent insensitivity to environmental induced drift.
These temperature sensors feature high accuracy and resolution, and total fiber optic design ensuring intrinsic immunity to electric sparks and EMI/RFI. Compatible with SMARTEC MuST FBG measurement units, the embedded temperature sensors combine compact size, high resistance to corrosion and harsh environments, and long-term reliability. They are also suitable for remote sensing being possible to install them several kilometers away from the measurement unit and connect a large number of sensors in a single optical fiber. These sensors are also suitable for difficult-to-reach locations and large scale sensing networks.
