OEP-AC Fiber Optic Extensometer
Extensometer sensor with anchors (Concrete)
About the OEP-AC Fiber Optic Extensometer
The Fiber optic extensometer sensors OEP-AC (for concrete) and OEP-SW (for steel) with anchors are developed for the monitoring of steel & concrete structures. These sensors can be used to monitor single crack as well as multiple concrete fissures. Applications like this require a robust and reliable sensor and that is exactly what these extensometer sensors are!
Both of the sensors have the well-known Fiber Optic characteristics. (Intrinsically safe, oustanding repeatability, long term monitoring and maintenaince free without drifting over time.)
Features OEP-AC
- Maintenance free without drifting over time
- Outstanding repeatability
- No temperature compensation required
- Insensitive to transverse strains
- Intrinsically safe
- Easy to set-up and operate
- No lag - no latency
Applications for OEP-AC
- Civil engineering and geotechnical applications
- Marine and subsea conditions
- High voltage environments
- High temperature applications
- Nuclear and hazardous environments
- ATEX environment and zone exposed to explosive atmosphere
