Fiber optic sensors consist of a sensing amplifier and small fiber optics cables.  The amplifier houses the emitter, receiver and are where any adjustments are made.  The fiber optic cables connect to the amplifier and guide emitted light from the amplifier to the sensing area.  Because of their small size and variety of sensing tips, fiber optic cables are perfect for applications where conventional sensors don’t fit. --Fiber optic cables are available in both diffuse and thru-beam styles --Fiber optic cables can withstand extreme heat and harsh environments --Large variety of sensing tips available
