Lichtwellenleitersensoren - Teil 6-1: Wegmessung - Wegsensoren auf der Basis von Faser Bragg-Gittern (IEC 61757-6-1:2024); Deutsche Fassung EN IEC 61757-6-1:2024
Overview
This part of IEC 61757 defines the terminology, structure, and measurement methods of optical displacement sensors based on fibre Bragg gratings (FBGs) as the sensing element. This document also specifies the most important features and characteristics of these fibre optic displacement sensors and defines procedures for measuring these features and characteristics. The document also specifies the characteristics to be declared. There are no restrictions on the scope of application of the document. The standard increases investment security for manufacturers and users, provides test laboratories and manufacturers with defined test specifications, and ensures compatibility across manufacturers.
