Product information "Fiber Optic Delivery System for Flow Visualization"

Delivery System consisting of a laser to fiber coupler, fiber optic patchcord, fiber optic collimator, and fiber optic line generator; Power Transmission ≤1 to ≤ 20 W

In flow visualization systems, a visible wavelength laser beam is coupled into an optical fiber, recollimated at the fiber output, and then sent through a lens, generating a line. This line of laser light is then shone through the flowing liquid under inspection. Any particulate matter present, or changes to the flow pattern within the fluid, causes fluctuations in the output beam pattern which are visually observed.

OZ Optics offers complete delivery systems for flow visualization, consisting of a laser to fiber coupler, fiber optic patchcord, fiber optic collimator, and fiber optic line generator. The line generator uses a Powell lens. Compared to simple cylindrical lenses, this Powell lens transforms a collimated beam into a line with a uniform output intensity along its entire length.

Fiber optic delivery systems are available for a wide range of wavelengths. Other wavelengths are available on request. The maximum power transmission possible depends upon the fiber size chosen 4/125 fiber can handle 1 W to 3 W, 10/125 fiber can handle 3 W to 5 W, 25/125 fiber can handle 5W to 10 W, and 50/125 fiber can handle 10 W to 20 W. For best repeatability and stability, FC connectors are recommended for the fiber couplers and collimators. Pigtail style couplers and collimators are also recommended.By choosing different focal lengths for the collimating and Powell lenses, different line widths and fan angles are possible. Standard line widths for singlemode fibers are 0.8 mm and 1.2 mm. Standard fan angles are 10°, 30° and 45°. Contact us for further information on available line widths and fan angles.

CAP Fused Silica Capillary Tubing

Inside Diameter 15 to 450 µm; Outside Diameter 90 to 673 µm; Coating Polyimide; Temperature Range -190 to +350 °C; Tensile Strength >600 kpsi Fiberguide’s fused silica capillary tubing is used for micro-fluidics applications and in gas chromatography (GC) separation columns. These capillaries are coated with polyimide for mechanical stability and versatile uses. With inert surfaces and high purity, Fiberguide’s capillary tubing solutions provide a very high phase stability, while their peak mechanical stability leads to greater yield and more cost-efficient tubing. Based on the great flexibility combined with high tensile strength (>600 kpsi), these capillary tubing solutions are pressure resistant to 4,500 psi and allow very small radii during coiling with no kinking. They are impervious to chemicals, allowing usage in harsh environments. A wide range of internal and external diameters with tight tolerances allows users to select a capillary tubing solution that best suits their flow rate requirements. All capillaries can be easily cleaved or cut, allowing to adjust exactly the column length needed for interfacing. While the mirror smooth inner surface provides stable laminar flow profiles and good adherence, the capillary tubing solutions’ Polyimide coating is very durable and abrasion resistant.
