About the OEP-AC Fiber Optic Extensometer

The Fiber optic extensometer sensors OEP-AC (for concrete) and OEP-SW (for steel) with anchors are developed for the monitoring of steel & concrete structures. These sensors can be used to monitor single crack as well as multiple concrete fissures. Applications like this require a robust and reliable sensor and that is exactly what these extensometer sensors are!

Both of the sensors have the well-known Fiber Optic characteristics. (Intrinsically safe, oustanding repeatability, long term monitoring and maintenaince free without drifting over time.)

Features OEP-AC

• Maintenance free without drifting over time
• Outstanding repeatability
• No temperature compensation required
• Insensitive to transverse strains
• Intrinsically safe
• Easy to set-up and operate
• No lag - no latency

Applications for OEP-AC

• Civil engineering and geotechnical applications
• Marine and subsea conditions
• High voltage environments
• High temperature applications
• Nuclear and hazardous environments
• ATEX environment and zone exposed to explosive atmosphere
