Allowing the use of fiber optics in potentially damaging
environments, Fiberguide Industries introduces its new standard line of single
fiber assemblies. Fiberguide’s assemblies have proven effective in a number of
scientific and industrial applications.
Single fiber assemblies are available with two choices of
chemical resistant, non-magnetic sheathing to fit customers’ needs. For general
purpose use, Fiberguide’s furcation tubing is comprised of a Kevlar reinforced
PVC sleeve over a polypropylene tube. Furcation tubing is non-conductive and
protects fibers with a liquid-tight seal.
For more specialized applications, Fiberguide offers
stainless steel monocoil sheathing. The monocoil is vacuum compatible and
resistant to tight bending, crushing, cutting, kinking, and high temperatures.
Both standard cable designs are rated for use at ambient
temperatures. Single fiber assemblies are available with core sizes ranging
from 50 to 1,000 µ and wavelengths from deep UV (DUV) to UV-VIS and VIS-IR.
Assemblies are also available upon request with ST and FC connectors, numerical
apertures of 0.12 and 0.26, and continuous lengths up to 50 meters.
