Micron Optics, Inc., a leading innovator and provider of fiber optic sensing systems and tunable laser technology, announces an addition to its growing portfolio of optical sensors: the os5500 Displacement Gage. Based on fiber Bragg grating (FBG) technology, the os5500 is designed to measure displacements of up to 450mm between two gage points on the surface of a specimen or structure over long periods of time. The gage design is flexible enough to allow for easy attachment to various substrates making measurements on metal, concrete, rock/stone and other surfaces straightforward. The FBG sensors at the heart of the os5500 gage are located within a rugged, hard-coat anodized aluminum enclosure that shields them from the elements. This makes the os5500 ideal for outdoor and harsh environment applications.
