Optical fibers can be used as sensors to measure, , and other quantities by modifying a fiber so that the quantity to be measured modulates the,,, or transit time of light in the fiber. Sensors that vary the intensity of light are the simplest, since only a simple source and detector are required. A particularly useful feature of intrinsic fiber-optic sensors is that they can, if required, provide distributed sensing over very large distances.

There are several types of detection methods with fiber optic sensors, including thrubeam, reflective, retro-reflective, and definite-reflective. Each method uses an LED or other light source for non-contact detection. This prevents damage to both the target and the sensor. Fiber-optic sensors detect objects and conditions by directing light to a test object and evaluating the intensity change of the returning light. They can detect very small objects, are particularly flexible to mount and are extremely resistant in harsh environments – even in high temperatures. This series is able to detect virtually anything, in any environment with high power and a variety of head options. Integration is also made easy through reduced wiring options and fiber optics with integrated. In addition, optical fiber sensors can be used to form an Optical Fiber Sensing Network (OFSN) allowing manufacturers to create versatile monitoring solutions with several applications, e.

A fiber-optic sensor is a that uses either as the sensing element ("intrinsic sensors"), or as a means of relaying signals from a remote sensor to the electronics that process the signals ("extrinsic sensors"). Fibers have many uses in. Depending on the application, fiber may be used because of its small size, or because no is needed at the remote location, or because many sensors can be along the length of a fiber by using light wavelength shift for.
