The Micron Optics si425 is a complete, stand-alone, multi-sensor measurement system that provides a high optical power, rapid measurement rate up to 512 FBGs on four fibers. The si425 has been designed with an advanced laser capable of a maximum scan rate of 250 Hz and is expandable from 1 to 4 DUT channels. The user can choose scan frequencies from 1 to 250 Hz at fixed increments. Four standard screen views are available either throught the build-in LCD or via Ethernet on a remote PC.
Sensor Wavelength View: shows vs. Time for selected sensors.
Table View: simultaneously displays for all sensors on all channels.
Channel Power View/ sets gain level for each channel.
FFT View: Clearly and accurately identifies the fundamental frequency of oscillations.
