Description

nnnn

The sm125 Optical Sensing Interrogator is a compact, field proven, industrial grade stat-

nnnn

ic optical sensor interrogation module designed for reliable, long term field operation

nnnn

The sm125 Optical Sensing Interrogator is built upon the Micron Optics x25 optical inter-

nnnn

rogator core, featuring a high power, low noise swept wavelength laser, realized with

nnnn

Micron Optics patented Fiber Fabry-PerotTunable Filter technology. The x25 interroga-

nnnn

tor core employs full spectral scanning and data acquisition, providing measurements

nnnn

with high absolute accuracy, flexible software post-processing, and high dynamic range

nnnn

performance. x25 based interrogators support continuous on-board NIST traceable

nnnn

wavelength reference components and are ideally suited to measure many different

nnnn

optical sensor types, including FBGs, long period gratings, extrinsic Fabry-Perot sensors,

nnnn

and many others. Well over half of the fiber optic sensors deployed today are mea-

nnnn

sured with instrumentation that uses Micron Optics technology.

nnnn

The Micron Optics "sm - Sensing Module" platform responds directly to the user com-

nnnn

mands of the optical interrogator core and outputs sensor wavelength data via Ethernet

nnnn

port and custom protocol. All module settings, sensor calculations, data visualization,

nnnn

storage, and alarming tasks are run on an external PC or sensor processor module

nnnn

The Sensing Module platform is ideal for custom, client developed system manage-

nnnn

ment tools, but is equally compatible with local or remote installations of Micron Optics

nnnn

ENLIGHT

nnnn

sm125 Field Module

nnnn

Micron Optics ENLIGHT Sensing Analysis Software is included with Micron Optics

nnnn

sensing interrogator systems and provides a single suite of tools for data acquisition,

nnnn

computation, and analysis of optical sensor networks. ENLIGHT combines the usefu

nnnn

features of traditional sensor software with the specific tools needed to optimize opti-

nnnn

cal properties during the design, implementation, and operations phases of an optical

nnnn

sensor system. Tables, graphs, and additional data visualization features make ENLIGHT

nnnn

easy to use. Learn more about ENLIGHT at http://www.micronoptics.com/sensing_soft-
