Strain Gauge SG-01
Description
The Strain Gage SG-01 is the fiber optic equivalent of an electrical strain gage. The Strain Gage SG-01 can be mounted directly on the surface of a structure by means of an adhesive. In this way, the fiber sensor makes direct contact with the surface and therefore accurately measures the strain at the surface. Supply of the strain gages, installation tools and instruction manual can be found in the Strain Gage Installation Kit (SGK-01). The sensors are produced using a draw tower production process which gives the fibers a very high strength which in turns ensures that the sensors have excellent fatigue behaviour. Also the fiber coating is specifically developed for strain sensing applications and so it need not be removed prior to installation of the sensors. The Strain Gage SG-01 has a connector at both ends (1) in order to make series configurations possible. In its standard configuration, the sensor has protective tubing before (2) and after (2) the sensor area (4) and it has a free fiber length of 28 mm centred around this area (4). A rubber sleeve (5) is placed over the exposed fiber area for protective purposes and must be removed before installation. The fiber is fixed to the tubing so that it can be kept straight by pulling slightly at the tubing.
