newLight FS64 - FBG tilt sensor
newLight Optical inclinometer FS64 for measuring small angle changes
Based on the newLight range of optical sensors, the FS64 is a robust Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) inclinometer designed to measure very small changes in angle towards the vertical. The sensor uses two FBG arrays in a push-pull configuration for effective temperature compensation.
The sensor can be used in a wide range of monitoring applications such as monitoring retaining walls, bridge piers, tunnels or buildings. Tilt measurements in different directions are possible with multiple sensors.
- For installation on vertical surfaces
- Angle measurement +/- 5 degrees
- Error due to temperature less than 0.003º/ºC
- Possibility of using two sensors for two-axis measurement
