PART 1 Acceleration System
Accelerometer systems are often used to measure vibration or motion . The measuring system is able to record movements in one, two or three spatial directions . The actual sensors used are fiber optic sensors , which provide reliable measured values that are not affected by electromagnetic interference. Of course, such a system has high reliability and can produce effective results even under changing weather conditions .
The measuring principle is as follows: The heart of the measuring system is a special MEMS sensor with a reflective surface . A beam of light is directed through a prism onto a mirror so that it is coupled with as much intensity as possible into a returning fiber. If you speed up, the mirror axis changes and the intensity of the reflected light decreases. The drop is proportional to the acceleration acting on the sensor from the outside.
PART 2 program introduction
1. Application introduction
One of the typical fields of application for fiber-optic acceleration systems is railway technology, where the system is used to measure pantograph vibrations. Other typical applications are mainly in high electromagnetic, high voltage scenarios such as wind turbines, transformers, generators or MRI machines. But the systems could equally well be used in mining and oil and gas extraction because they don't have any risk of sparks.
The structure of the system consists of a fiber optic sensor and controller. The sensor MEMS micro-membrane records the accelerations and sends them to the optical head (sensor) to form an optical signal (density modulation). Use an optical cable to transmit the signal to a remote control unit (controller) over 200 meters away. The remote control unit converts the optical signal into a standard AC signal and measures the acceleration. .
2. Accelerometer system from Hongke Micronor
In its different versions, MICRONOR's accelerometers can record accelerations in 1, 2 or 3 axes . For 1-axis sensors there is also a choice between square and round sensor heads. All sensors are of high quality and safe to use.
