Opsens Solutions company CoreSens fiber optic deg measurement

Brand: Opsens

Origin: Canada

Isolated Temperature Sensor. Detailed specifications are available in the product datasheet.
Overview

Multi-functional, modular, and scalable

The CoreSens device is the latest generation signal conditioner from Opsens Solutions, equipped with the most advanced technology. It is a scalable modular unit with a dual-channel measurement module that can be added according to your needs.

CoreSens is versatile, supporting various fiber optic sensors and providing a measurement sampling rate of up to 1,000 Hz. The integrated EtherCAT® fieldbus and interface ensure truly deterministic synchronization of multi-channel measurements.

CoreSens supports two different dual-channel modules:

  • WLX-2(S) is used for white light polarization interferometry (WLPI) technology (patent # US7,259,862), capable of accurately and reliably measuring physical parameters such as temperature, strain, pressure, and displacement.

  • GSX-2 for semiconductor BanGap (SCBG) technology, used to measure rapid temperature changes.

Customized according to your needs

CoreSens offers multi-module rack-mounted chassis configurations (each chassis can hold up to 13 WLX-2(S) and/or GSX-2 dual-channel measurement modules) to achieve excellent modularity. The main EtherCAT® (CSC-M) or bridged EtherCAT® (CSC-B) control interface modules can manage up to 50 CoreSens chassis, providing full control over a total of 1,300 measurement channels. Standalone unit configurations with a single WLX-2(S) or GSX-2 dual-channel measurement module are also available.

ServSens: easy to configure and data acquisition

Opsens Solutions provides simple and versatile web server applications suitable for all CoreSens configurations. In chassis configurations and CSC-M control unit modules, the ServSens application runs in the embedded web server without any software installation required on the customer's PC.

The ServSens application provides all functions for system, module, and sensor configuration, as well as real-timedata acquisition and stored data.

Multifunctional and open interface

For greater flexibility, users can connect the CoreSens system to their own EtherCAT® network (with a CSC-B module) or Ethernet network (with a CSC-M module).

The CoreSens open interface architecture allows users to develop and use their own application interfaces with CoreSens units over EtherCAT® or Ethernet-based communication links. Both interfaces support SCPI-like commands, making programming easier.

EtherCAT Function

The EtherCAT® interface and protocol are the ultimate choice for true deterministic synchronization in high-speed and multi-channel measurements.

Opsens Solutions is proud to offer this state-of-the-art Ethernet real-time industrial fieldbus technology in all rack-mounted versions of the CoreSens products.

EtherCAT® is a registered trademark and patented technology of Beckhoff Automation GmbH in Germany.

LogSens: CoreSens Standalone Version

The LogSens software is provided with the CoreSens standalone system and can be used with a USB interface. LogSens offers all functions for system, module, and sensor configuration, as well as real-time data acquisition and storage.
