FibreComs is Microface's in-house fibre-optic measurement system for electrically noisy test environments. Fibre does not conduct electromagnetic interference and provides galvanic isolation between the sensor location and acquisition system.
Optical transmission prevents the data link from carrying the electrical interference and ground-loop paths associated with copper connections.
No conducted EMI through the fibre
Electrical isolation
Useful around closely grouped dynamometers
02
Practical in the laboratory
FibreComs devices are designed to be easy to install, exchange and repair. Calibration information is stored with the device to support plug-and-play changes.
Device-held calibration information
Straightforward sensor changes
Repairable fibre connections
03
Multiple measurement types
Historic FibreComs applications include torque, pressure, temperature, displacement, airspeed, cable tension, drag force, humidity and disc-thickness-variation measurements.
Common brake-test measurements
Expandable architecture
