White Paper: Introduction to Fiber Optic Sensing

Introduction to Fiber Optic Sensing

Fiber optic sensing is becoming increasingly common in various industries, including manufacturing, medical, aerospace, automotive, civil, and energy. There are dozens of different types of technology on the market, each with its own set of capabilities. Because of the variety of technologies, navigating the fiber optic sensing landscape can be difficult.

This white paper, courtesy of Sensuron, intends to provide a framework for understanding multiple fiber optic sensing technologies and insights into market trends.

For decades, point sensing solutions such as strain gauges and thermocouples were  "good enough," but this mindset frequently stifles innovation. Today, many Sensuron clients have innovated beyond their ability to test with legacy technologies. New, robust sensing technologies, such as Sensuron fiber optic solutions that can monitor beyond the scope of point sensors, are required to enable the next generation of innovations.

BLH Nobel KIS Beam Load Cell Technology


The BLH Nobel KIS load cell provides unmatched efficiency, is simple to mount, and is highly accurate, even under complex process forces and extreme environmental conditions. Unlike other load cells, KIS works as defined in real-world applications, not just under laboratory conditions. 

KIS Beam technology integrates SR-4 ® strain gages connected as a full Wheatstone bridge that is temperature-compensated and optimized for precision and reliability. And since all KIS Beams are factory-calibrated, installation and set-up are simple and easy without the need for on-site calibration (unless mechanical obstructions prohibit a vessel being "freestanding"). 

The above four-minute video does an excellent job illustrating how the KIS load cell works and what distinguishes KIS from other load cells
