How many Gs of instantaneous impact force can an OFSCN sensor withstand?
The instantaneous impact force (G-force) an OFSCN® sensor can withstand is highly dependent on the specific sensor type and its packaging. There isn’t a single universal G-force rating for all OFSCN® sensors, as their applications range from delicate bare gratings to robust packaged solutions.
For applications requiring high mechanical robustness and resistance to stress, we recommend the OFSCN® Alloy Tube Packaged Fiber Bragg Grating strain sensor. This sensor features full metal seamless tube encapsulation, which provides significant protection against external mechanical forces and harsh environments, including those that might involve impact or shock.
