Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) Sensors
AITHER currently offers a line of fiber Bragg grating-based sensors to meet a variety of sensing needs including strain, temperature, and acceleration monitoring. Each of these sensors is designed to function with the FBG instrumentation offered by AITHER. A brief description of each sensor type is provided below along with links to further information on each sensor design. These sensors can be used individually or combined to meet your particular sensing application needs. For further information regarding your particular application requirements, please contact us.
 FBG sensors are available in many configurations to meet your strain application needs. Sensor package designs include rosettes, long base strain gages, and strain/temperature monitoring packages.

Temperature
 FBG-based temperature sensors are available in a variety of configurations including in-line (for serial multiplexing), single ended (for probe designs), and industrial hardened package (for harsh environments).
Standard Flush Mounted Temperature Sensor.
Standard Configuration Temperature Sensor.
High Range Temperature Sensor.
Acceleration
 Single-axis FBG-based accelerometers are available to meet a wide range of acceleration and shock measurement requirements. The custom design can be manufactured to meet your sensing requirements.
50 g Range.
500 g Range.
Low Amplitude, Non-Magnetic.
 The FBG-based displacement sensor is designed to measure linear deflections across relatively long distances. The hardened package design is ideal for industrial applications.
Documentation.
 The FBG-based door closure sensor provides a three-stage measurement of door closure status – open, closed but not secured, and closed and secured. Ideal for multiple compartment vessel/building monitoring.
Documentation.
 The FBG-based flooding sensor was designed for maritime vessels and applications. The sensor can be used for a wide variety of applications where liquid level or flooding measurements are needed including storage tanks, pump controls, and flood prone areas.
Documentation.
 Designed for a high magnetic field environment, the FBG-based force sensor can accurately measure point loads with a high level of sensitivity. The sensor can be used to closely monitor the health and structural integrity of buildings to prevent future damage.
