Fiber Optical Sensor
Fiber Optic Tip Pressure Sensor
The FTPS is a MEMS-based fiber optic tip pressure sensor specifically designed for physiological pressure measurements in a variety of environments (human, animal, industrial) constructed with non-metallic materials. It is fully immune to EMI and RFI interference. This miniature sensor, with an outer diameter of just.20mm, is ideal for integration into catheters, guidewires and other devices for minimally invasive pressure measurements. The patent-pending design eliminates moisture-induced drift and significantly reduces thermal zero shift. We offer customizable sensor encapsulation at the sensor tip and/or along the entire optical cable, available in various materials and sizes to meet specific OEM application needs.
