Sensors

Lightguides are an essential part of todays' modern sensor technology. Sojitz additionally offers customer- and application-oriented solutions.

Due to the specific advantages of optical fibers like small dimensions, low weight, no electric or magnetic components and the resistance to electromagnetic interference (EMI) fiberoptic sensors can universally be used.

Transmitting and reflecting light barriers, mixers and distributors, radiation detectors and pyrometers, scanners and optical probes are just a few examples for the variety of fiberoptical sensors.

Fiberoptical sensors and sensor systems for industrial automation, for spectroscopic analysis and for bio- and medical technology have already been realized.

POF Image Guides open new possibilities in image sensing applications.

Compared to glass image guides, POF image guides offer a cost-effective alternative and even allow for applications under difficult light conditions due the low attenuation.

The whole spectral range from near ultra-violet (UV) to almost infra-red (IR) can be covered by the specific use of POF.

Fiberoptic POF sensors can work at temperatures up to +105°C.
