Thank you for the introduction to this product. As an addition to the technical overview of the OFSCN® 120℃ MM High-temperature Optical Fiber, I would like to provide further technical details regarding its material composition and application suitability.

Technical Characteristics

The OFSCN® 120℃ MM High-temperature Optical Fiber is specifically engineered for environments exceeding the limits of standard commercial fibers (which typically fail at 65°C to 85°C).

  • Coating Stability: It utilizes a high-temperature resistant modified acrylate coating. This ensures that the fiber maintains its mechanical strength and optical properties without the coating becoming brittle or off-gassing at its peak rated temperature of 120°C.
  • Core Options:
    • Doped Core: Ideal for standard sensing and communication.
    • Pure Silicon Core: Recommended for environments with potential radiation exposure or specific sensing requirements where hydrogen aging must be minimized.
  • Carbon Coating Option: The optional carbon layer acts as a hermetic seal, protecting the glass from hydrogen ingress and moisture, which significantly extends the fiber’s lifespan in harsh industrial conditions.
