fiber opticprocessmonitoring

Our GUIDED WAVE™ Single-Sided Transmission (SST) Probe is our most popular fiber optic probe. On the market for over 3 decades, it has been the most widely copied probe design in the industry. Rugged and reliable, it’s ideal for continuous process monitoring applications. Easily installed in a pipe or reactor through a single access port, the SST Probe is compatible with any Guided Wave analyzer and many other analyzer brands. Optional accessories make it easy to adapt the SST Probe to different kinds of process installations. SST Probe Features Available in five standard lengths and six optical pathlengths Corrosion resistant construction Rugged and vibration resistant design Sealed against ambient moisture infiltration High optical throughput for low noise spectroscopy Temperatures to 300 °C Pressures to 2000 psi or 138 bar Higher pressures are available on request Unique Insertion Probe Design The GUIDED WAVE Single-Sided Transmission (SST) Probe houses incoming and outgoing optical-fibers side-by-side in a single 3/4-inch, or 1-inch diameter stainless steel body. This unique, compact design (U.S. Patent #6,043,895) means true transmission which translates to more signal, less noise, better measurements. Process-Resistant Probe Body Construction The GUIDED WAVE Single-Sided Transmission (SST) Probe is designed to withstand harsh process conditions. The body of the probe is built from 316L stainless steel or, by special order, other corrosion resistant materials.
