FBG Technology
— A Natural Choice

Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) technology is the ideal alternative for conventional (electric) and other optical based measuring technologies in Electric Power Industries.

The intrinsic features and passive nature of FBG based sensors make them extremely safe to use and a natural choice for all types of high-voltage, explosive and hazardous environments, such as the ones found in Electric Power Generation, Transmission and Distribution.

As a specialized company in designing, developing and producing advanced FBG based monitoring systems, FiberSensing has been contacted by some of the major manufacturers of electric power machines to industrialize their monitoring requirements. This strategic approach has brought about two large OEM supply contracts until today.

FiberSensing is continuously seeking to expand its partnerships and applications within the Energy sector.
