Fiber Optic Probes
A selection of fiber optic probes for process and in-situ measurements.
Fiber optic probes are compact and versatile optical devices used for various sensing and measurement applications. These probes utilize optical fibers to transmit and receive light, enabling precise and non-invasive measurements in challenging environments. The core function of fiber optic probes involves delivering light to a target area and collecting the resulting signal for analysis.
The design of fiber optic probes can vary based on their intended application. Some probes have a single optical fiber for simple point measurements, while others incorporate multiple fibers for complex sensing tasks. Common applications of fiber optic probes include temperature sensing, strain monitoring, chemical analysis, and biomedical diagnostics.
The advantages of fiber optic probes lie in their immunity to electromagnetic interference, resistance to harsh environments, and ability to transmit light over long distances without significant loss. These attributes make fiber optic probes valuable tools in industries such as telecommunications, aerospace, medicine, and environmental monitoring.
Attenuated Total Reflectance (ATR) Fiber Optic Probe
Attenuated Total Reflectance (ATR) Fiber Optic Probe
The 12mm ATR Probe is for use in highly absorbant samples (between 3,000-5,000 AU/cm). Can be inserted directly into a sample and measure the spectral properties with no dilution or use of cuvettes. Typically used with pure inks, dyes and crude oil samples.
