Polyimide Coated SM Fiber

For embedded and high temperature applications

  • Polyimide coated enabling survival at temperatures up to 300°C
  • Ultra-low and low profile, bend insensitive fiber for downhole Seismic geophone sensors and high temperature distributed pressure and temperature sensors
  • Enhanced photosensitivity
  • Maintains composite material strength when embedded

Typical Applications:

  • Downhole sensors
  • Geophones
  • DTS, DAS, DSS and DPS
  • Embedded sensors
  • FBGs
  • Biomedical in vivo sensors
  • High temperature sensors
