The EFO is a fiber optic strain sensor especially designed to be embedded in concrete, ideal for composite material engineering research and civil-engineering applications such as
monitoring stresses in structural mem-bers of buildings, bridges, tunnel linings and supports during and after construction.
Key Features Immune to EMI/RFI/Lightning Intrinsically safe Static/dynamic response High sensitivity and resolution of 0.01% of full scale Signal transmitted over long distances No interference due to fiber bending Absolute measurements in engineering units
Applications Dams Bridges Tunnel linings Nuclear power plants Buildings High performance and reactive powder concrete Corrosive environments
