sm041光纖光柵解調器

    The Micron Optics sm041 Channel Multiplexer adds sensor and optical-fiber-connection capacity to the sm125-500 Optical Sensor Interrogator.

    There are two basic types of sm041. First is the switch-type (sm041-416 and -408). Robust optical switches can be programed to alternate between multiple banks of sensors. This boosts capacity of the sm125-500 Optical Sensor Interrogator to up to 16 fibers and more than 2000 sensors.

    The second type of sm041 Channel Multiplexer is the coupler-type (sm041-016 and -008). Coupler-type extensions provide a tidy way to connect up to four optical fibers to a single optical channel on the sm125-500 Optical Sensor Interrogator. For many applications this can greatly simplify fiber routing and sensor installation.

    Micron Optics supplies a LabVIEW™ utility example that provides the user a path to customize the use of the additional channels provided by the switch-type extension. No special software is needed for the coupler-type sm041.
