FBGS InfinityScan®
21.03.2024
One measurement engine. One fiber. Over 2 000 sensing points.
The FBGS InfinityScan® enables long-distance monitoring by measuring a dense network of FBG sensors. This allows a dramatic increase in the total number of sensors that can be read-out.
The technology is based on our patented technology “Code Division Multiplexing” (CDM). The sensing network is composed of multiple sections using the same WDM-array that are measured simultaneously. This is made possible by a digital code that modulates the outgoing and incoming light as a function of time. Sections within the same fiber are measured sequentially and it is possible to lock to a specific WDM section. Overlapping wavelengths are not an issue anymore.
Best suited for dynamic monitoring of long-distance applications / structures (e.g. roads, bridges, tunnels, pipelines, cables...).
Designed to meet diverse industry needs:
• Long-Distance Precision: Capable of monitoring over distances of more than 1 km with exceptional precision.
• Cost-Efficiency: A single fiber and device significantly reduce costs per sensing point, offering an economical solution for extensive monitoring.
• Enhanced Structural Health Awareness: Facilitates predictive maintenance and early failure detection, ultimately reducing downtime and enhancing operational safety.
Ideal for various sectors:
• Process Industry
• Civil Engineering
• Energy Installation Monitoring
FBGS InfinityScan® is more than just a monitoring device; it's a strategic tool that transforms how industries perceive and interact with their structural health and operational environments.
