This product is a supporting installation fixture for OFSCN® fiber bragg grating (FBG) sensors, produced by DCYS. It is used for the installation and fixation of OFSCN® FBG strain sensors, FBG stress sensors, FBG displacement sensors, FBG Pipeline Pressure Sensor, and other products such as serially connected FBG temperature sensors. The fixture has the characteristics of small deformation, easy use and flexible installation. In addition to conventional screw installation, it can also be installed by welding, gluing(surface mounting), cable tie binding and clamps.

This topic provides an excellent overview of the versatile installation methods available for OFSCN® fiber optic sensors. Selecting the correct fixture is as critical as the sensor itself to ensure accurate strain, stress, or displacement data transfer from the substrate to the Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG).
To help determine the most suitable installation approach for your specific engineering environment, could you please provide more details regarding your application?
Specifically:
- What is the target parameter you need to measure? (e.g., strain on a steel structure, displacement of a bridge expansion joint, or internal stress in a composite material?)
- What is the maximum operating temperature of the environment? (e.g., room temperature, up to 300°C, or higher?)
Depending on these factors, we can determine whether welding, gluing (surface mounting), or mechanical clamping using the OFSCN® Installation Fixture is the most reliable choice.
For reference, here are some standard configurations of our installation fixtures:
