PAGE 188 FPS Sensor Systems – Key Features FPS Sensor Systems Displacement Sensing for Research The global trend towards miniaturization causes major challenges for advanced metrology: quality standards are increasing, requirements on accuracy and reliability are constantly rising, and failure tolerances in production processes are steadily reduced. Especially in applications such as quality assurance and research & development, instruments need to provide highest precision, while offering versatile implementation options and the immediate availability of data post-processing, analysis, and storage. Accurate Accurate Radiation-hard The built-in DFB laser of the FPS is locked to a molecular absorption frequency reference, making the detected displacement traceable to international length standards. All measurements are therefore truly accurate in a metrological sense. Optional radiation-hard sensor heads and fiber packages are available for the operation in radiation harsh environments. All radiation-hard (/RAD) components are qualified for radiation doses of up to 10 MGy. Ultra fast Multi axis operation up to 3 m All FPS systems measure the position of the target with a bandwidth of 10 MHz and a resolution of 1 pm. At the same time, the sensor is compatible with displacement velocities of up to 2 m/s. Software With its advanced software automation, the FPS displacement and analysis system is the perfect solution for contactless, ultra-high precision and non-invasive displacement measurement tasks requiring immediate data inspection. Its plug-and-play architecture enables direct int Vw&F
