Description
The mountable strain sensor MS-05 makes use of the internal strain sensitivity of the FBG. The FBG is fixated inside a ruggedized housing between two anchoring points, which makes it possible to measure both extension and compression.
The sensor can be mounted on a structure using the two anchoring points with an outer thread M12 x 1,25. The sensor is configured so that the distance between both anchoring points will be about 60 mm. The sensor is connectorised at both ends to make series configuration possible.
Features
The mountable strain sensor MS-05 can measure the relative displacement between the two anchor points with a resolution of 0,05 µm and an accuracy of 1 µm.
Applications
The mountable strain sensor MS-05 can be applied for measuring small displacements, cracking or fissurisation of walls and structures.
