FBG Interrogator Sales

Smart Fibres was the pioneering developer of fibre Bragg grating (FBG) technology and has offered FBG interrogators to the market since 1998. We continue to develop, manufacture and sell a broad range of industry-leading FBG interrogator products, and can supply FBG sensors with an instrument sale.

Our FBG interrogators are all based on a tunable laser that is qualified for 25 years life for the telecoms industry. By adding our proprietary high-speed laser drive and photodetector electronics, we have produced a suite of instruments with extraordinary resolution, accuracy, ruggedness and price. This sets us aside from the competition developing interrogators based on swept laser or spectrometer architectures that are far more susceptible to their environment and are dependent on custom components that drive up the cost.
